High-purity reference materials for precise residue analysis

Overview

Naphthoxyacetic acid (NOA) is a synthetic plant growth regulator, commonly used in agriculture to promote growth and increase yield. It is a naphthalene derivative and functions similarly to auxins, a class of plant hormones.

Uses

Naphthoxyacetic acid is primarily used in the agricultural sector to enhance the growth of various crops. It is also employed in research laboratories for studying plant physiology and hormonal effects on plant development.

Regulatory

Regulations governing the use of naphthoxyacetic acid vary by country. It is important for laboratories and agricultural entities to comply with local and international regulations when using this compound.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of naphthoxyacetic acid residues in food and the environment is crucial to ensure safety and compliance with regulatory limits. Analytical methods, including chromatography and mass spectrometry, are commonly used for this purpose.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Exposure to naphthoxyacetic acid can cause irritation to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Long-term exposure may have more severe health implications, although comprehensive studies are limited.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Naphthoxyacetic acid can have detrimental effects on non-target plant species and aquatic life. It is important to assess the environmental impact before widespread application.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and storage of naphthoxyacetic acid are essential to minimize risk. Personal protective equipment (PPE) should be used, and safety guidelines must be followed to prevent accidental exposure.

Regulation

Various international bodies, including the EPA and EFSA, have set guidelines and limits for the use of naphthoxyacetic acid. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for safe and effective application.

Analytical Standards

High-purity reference materials for naphthoxyacetic acid are essential for accurate residue analysis. HPC Standards GmbH provides these materials, ensuring compliance with international quality requirements and industrial standards.
