High-purity reference materials for accurate and reliable residue analysis of Mepronil.

Overview

Mepronil is a fungicide used primarily in agriculture to protect crops from fungal diseases. It is a benzanilide compound that inhibits succinate dehydrogenase (SDHI), disrupting the mitochondrial respiration chain in fungi.

Uses

Mepronil is used as a seed treatment and foliar spray to control fungal diseases such as Rhizoctonia solani on vegetables and rice, Gymnosporangium fuscum on pears, and Puccinia chrysanthemi on chrysanthemums. It has been marketed since 1981 under the brand name Basitac by Kumiai Chemical Industries.

Regulatory

Mepronil is identified by CAS Number 55814-41-0 and has been registered for use in various countries. However, as of 2024, it is no longer registered for use, having been superseded by alternative SDHI products.

Monitoring

Fungal populations can develop resistance to SDHI inhibitors like Mepronil. Resistance management involves monitoring by manufacturers, regulatory bodies such as the EPA, and the Fungicides Resistance Action Committee (FRAC). Using a mixture of fungicides with different mechanisms of action can mitigate resistance development.

Health Impact

Mepronil is slightly soluble in water and has a log P value of 3.66, indicating moderate hydrophobicity. It is essential to handle Mepronil with care to avoid potential health risks associated with exposure.

Environmental Impact

Mepronil's environmental impact includes its potential to affect non-target organisms and ecosystems. Proper usage and disposal according to regulatory guidelines are crucial to minimize its environmental footprint.

Safety Measure

Handling Mepronil requires adherence to safety data sheets and guidelines to ensure safe usage. Protective equipment and proper storage conditions are necessary to prevent accidental exposure and contamination.
