High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis

Overview

Phosalone is an organophosphate chemical commonly used as an insecticide and acaricide. It was developed by Rhône-Poulenc in France. The chemical formula for Phosalone is C₁₂H₁₅ClNO₄PS₂, and it has a molar mass of 367.80 g/mol. It appears as colorless crystalline with a garlic odor and has a melting point of 47.5 to 48°C.

Uses

Phosalone is primarily used in agricultural settings to control a variety of insect pests. It is effective against a wide range of insects and mites, making it a versatile tool in pest management.

Regulatory

Phosalone was eliminated from pesticide registration in the European Union in December 2006. It is important for laboratories to ensure compliance with current regulatory limits when conducting residue analysis of Phosalone.

Monitoring

Monitoring Phosalone residues in food and the environment is crucial for ensuring safety and compliance with regulatory standards. Laboratories utilize high-purity reference materials to achieve accurate and reliable results in residue analysis.

Health Impact

Phosalone is a weak acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. Exposure can occur through oral, inhalation, and dermal routes, leading to toxic symptoms such as miosis, hypersalivation, hyperhidrosis, chest pressure, pulmonary edema, and fecal incontinence. The median lethal dose (LD50) for oral exposure in rats is 85 mg/kg, and for dermal exposure, it is 390 mg/kg.

Environmental Impact

Phosalone is harmful to aquatic life and can cause significant environmental damage if not managed properly. It decomposes to toxic gases such as phosphorus oxides, sulfur oxides, and nitrogen oxides, which can further impact the environment.

Safety Measure

Handling Phosalone requires strict safety measures to prevent exposure. It is flammable and should be stored and used in well-ventilated areas, away from sources of ignition. Personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, masks, and protective clothing should be worn to minimize risk.
