High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples.

Overview

Heptachlor-endo-epoxide is a chemical compound that is a metabolite of the pesticide heptachlor. It is known for its persistence in the environment and its potential to bioaccumulate.

Heptachlor was widely used as an insecticide, but its use has been restricted or banned in many countries due to its environmental and health impacts.

Uses

Heptachlor-endo-epoxide is primarily used in scientific research and residue analysis. Laboratories use this compound as a reference material to ensure the accuracy and reliability of their analytical results.

It is essential for monitoring pesticide residues in food and environmental samples to ensure compliance with regulatory standards.

Regulatory

Heptachlor and its metabolites, including heptachlor-endo-epoxide, are regulated by various international bodies due to their potential health risks. Regulatory limits are set to control the levels of these compounds in food and the environment.

Compliance with these regulations is crucial for food safety and environmental protection.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of heptachlor-endo-epoxide levels in food and environmental samples is necessary to ensure that they remain within the regulatory limits. This helps in preventing potential health risks associated with exposure to this compound.

Analytical methods such as gas chromatography and mass spectrometry are commonly used for the detection and quantification of heptachlor-endo-epoxide.

Health Impact

Exposure to heptachlor-endo-epoxide can have significant health impacts. It is known to be a potential carcinogen and can affect the liver, nervous system, and immune system.

Long-term exposure to this compound can lead to serious health issues, making it essential to monitor and control its levels in the environment and food products.

Environmental Impact

Heptachlor-endo-epoxide is highly persistent in the environment and can bioaccumulate in the food chain. This persistence can lead to long-term environmental contamination and affect wildlife.

Efforts to reduce the use of heptachlor and its metabolites are crucial for protecting the environment and maintaining ecological balance.

Safety Measure

Proper safety measures should be taken when handling heptachlor-endo-epoxide. This includes using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and following safety guidelines to prevent exposure.

Laboratories should ensure that they have proper ventilation and waste disposal systems in place to minimize the risk of contamination.
