High-purity reference materials for accurate and reliable residue analysis in food and environmental monitoring.

Overview

Terphenyls are a group of closely related aromatic hydrocarbons, also known as diphenylbenzenes or triphenyls. They consist of a central benzene ring substituted with two phenyl groups. There are three substitution patterns: ortho-terphenyl, meta-terphenyl, and para-terphenyl. Commercial grade terphenyl is generally a mixture of the three isomers.

Uses

Terphenyls are used in the production of polychlorinated terphenyls, which were formerly utilized as heat storage and transfer agents. Additionally, p-terphenyl derivatives are found in various fungi and bacteria, such as atromentin, a pigment found in some mushrooms.

Regulatory

Terphenyls are subject to various regulations due to their potential environmental and health impacts. Compliance with international quality requirements is essential for laboratories conducting residue analysis.

Monitoring

Accurate monitoring of terphenyls in food and the environment is critical to ensure compliance with regulatory limits. High-purity reference materials are essential for reliable residue analysis.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Terphenyls can cause skin and eye irritation, and inhalation may lead to respiratory issues. The permissible exposure limit (PEL) is set at 9 mg/m3 (1 ppm).

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

Terphenyls can have detrimental effects on aquatic life and other wildlife. Proper disposal and handling are crucial to minimize environmental contamination.

Safety Measure

Handling terphenyls requires appropriate safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) and adherence to precautionary statements such as P261, P264, P271, and P280.

Regulation

Terphenyls are regulated under various international guidelines to ensure safe use and minimize environmental and health risks. Laboratories must comply with these regulations when conducting residue analysis.
