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

Overview

Tebuthiuron is a nonselective broad-spectrum herbicide belonging to the urea class. It is commonly used to control weeds, woody and herbaceous plants, and sugar cane. Tebuthiuron is absorbed by the roots and transported to the leaves, where it inhibits photosynthesis.

Uses

Tebuthiuron is primarily used in agricultural settings to manage unwanted vegetation. It is effective for controlling invasive plant species and maintaining clear areas around utility lines and railways. Its nonselective nature makes it suitable for a wide range of applications, including forestry and pasture management.

Regulatory

In the United States, Tebuthiuron was registered by Elanco in 1974 and later sold to Dow AgroSciences. It is subject to stringent regulatory controls to ensure safe usage. In Europe, Tebuthiuron has been banned since November 2002 due to its environmental impact.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring of Tebuthiuron levels in soil and water is crucial to ensure compliance with environmental regulations. Laboratories use high-purity reference materials to accurately measure residue levels, ensuring that they remain within acceptable limits.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Tebuthiuron can be harmful if ingested. It is classified under GHS with hazard statements H302 (harmful if swallowed) and H410 (very toxic to aquatic life with long-lasting effects). Appropriate safety measures should be taken to avoid exposure.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Tebuthiuron poses significant risks to the environment due to its high water solubility, low adsorption to soil particles, and high persistence in soil. The Environmental Protection Agency considers it to have a high potential for groundwater contamination.

Safety Measures

Users of Tebuthiuron should follow safety guidelines, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and proper disposal methods. Precautionary statements include P264 (wash hands thoroughly after handling), P270 (do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product), P273 (avoid release to the environment), P301+P312 (if swallowed: call a poison center/doctor if you feel unwell), P330 (rinse mouth), P391 (collect spillage), and P501 (dispose of contents/container to an approved waste disposal plant).

Regulation

Due to its environmental risks, Tebuthiuron is heavily regulated. In the United States, its usage is governed by the Environmental Protection Agency, while in Europe, it has been banned since 2002.
