High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis

Overview

Malaoxon (IUPAC name: diethyl 2-(dimethoxyphosphorylsulfanyl)butanedioate) is a chemical compound with the formula C₁₀H₁₉O₇PS. It is a phosphorothioate and a breakdown product of malathion, known to be more toxic than its parent compound.

Uses

Malaoxon is primarily used in the context of pesticide residue analysis. Laboratories utilize high-purity reference materials of Malaoxon to ensure accurate and reliable measurements in food and environmental samples.

Regulatory

Regulatory bodies require strict monitoring of pesticide residues, including Malaoxon, to ensure compliance with safety standards. Reference materials from HPC Standards GmbH meet international quality requirements and help laboratories adhere to these regulations.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of Malaoxon residues is essential for ensuring food safety and environmental protection. Laboratories rely on high-purity reference materials to calibrate their analytical instruments and validate their methods.

Health Impact

Exposure to Malaoxon can inhibit cholinesterase, leading to symptoms such as miosis, headache, increased bronchial secretion, nausea, vomiting, and muscular twitching. Severe exposure can result in convulsions, respiratory failure, and even death.

Environmental Impact

Malaoxon is slightly soluble in water and can be sensitive to prolonged exposure to air. Its presence in the environment can pose risks to non-target organisms, necessitating careful monitoring and management.

Safety Measure

Handling Malaoxon requires strict safety measures due to its toxicity. It is combustible and can emit toxic fumes when heated to decomposition. Appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) and ventilation are essential when working with this compound.

Analytical Standards

HPC Standards GmbH provides high-purity reference materials for Malaoxon, ensuring laboratories can perform accurate residue analysis. These reference materials are essential for method validation, instrument calibration, and ensuring compliance with regulatory limits.
