High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis of Isoxaflutole.

Overview

Isoxaflutole is a selective herbicide primarily used in maize crops. It inhibits the enzyme 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) and is marketed under various brand names including Balance and Merlin. First introduced by Rhône-Poulenc in 1996, Isoxaflutole is essential for controlling broad-leaved and annual grass weeds.

Uses

Isoxaflutole is applied to soil before the emergence of weeds to control species such as Amaranthus, Datura stramonium, and ragweed, as well as grasses like Alopecurus, Eriochloa, and Panicum. It is commonly used in corn and sugarcane cultivation.

Regulatory

The European Food Safety Authority has set an acceptable daily intake for Isoxaflutole at 0.02 mg/kg bodyweight. The Codex Alimentarius database lists maximum residue limits for Isoxaflutole in various food products, typically at 0.01 mg/kg or 0.02 mg/kg.

Monitoring

Monitoring of Isoxaflutole residues is crucial to ensure compliance with regulatory limits. Laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis rely on high-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis.

Health Impact

Human toxicity

The LD50 of Isoxaflutole is over 5000 mg/kg in rats (oral). Proper handling and usage guidelines must be followed to minimize potential health risks.

Environmental Impact

Effects on wildlife

Isoxaflutole can have significant effects on non-target plant species and aquatic organisms. Its use must be managed to mitigate environmental risks.

Safety Measures

Isoxaflutole is labeled with hazard statements H361d (suspected of damaging the unborn child) and H410 (very toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects). Precautionary measures include P203, P273, P280, P318, P391, P405, and P501.

Regulation

Isoxaflutole is regulated under various international guidelines to ensure safe usage and environmental protection. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for agricultural and environmental applications.
