High-purity reference materials for accurate residue analysis in food and environmental samples

Overview

Transfluthrin is a fast-acting pyrethroid insecticide with low persistency. It is commonly used indoors to combat pests such as flies, mosquitoes, moths, and cockroaches. Transfluthrin has the molecular formula C₁₅H₁₂Cl₂F₄O₂ and appears as colorless crystals.

Uses

Transfluthrin is utilized in various household products like vaporizers and mosquito coils to provide rapid pest control. It is effective as both a contact and inhalation agent.

Regulatory

In the European Union, the acceptable exposure level (AEL) for transfluthrin in humans is set at 500 μg/m³. Regulatory standards ensure safe usage and compliance with health guidelines.

Monitoring

Monitoring transfluthrin levels in indoor environments is crucial for maintaining safety. Effective concentrations in household products typically range from 15 μg/m³ to 40 μg/m³.

Health Impact

Human Toxicity

Exposure to transfluthrin, if not used as per product instructions, can cause symptoms such as nervousness, anxiety, tremors, convulsions, skin allergies, sneezing, and irritation. Treatment is symptomatic, and no specific antidotes are known.

Environmental Impact

Effects on Wildlife

As a pyrethroid insecticide, transfluthrin poses potential risks to non-target wildlife species. Its environmental impact should be carefully managed to prevent adverse effects on ecosystems.

Safety Measures

Proper handling and usage as per product guidelines are essential to mitigate health risks. Personal protective equipment (PPE) and adequate ventilation can further reduce exposure risks.

Regulation

Transfluthrin is regulated under various international standards to ensure its safe use in pest control. Compliance with these regulations is mandatory for manufacturers and users.

Analytical Standards

HPC Standards GmbH provides high-purity reference materials for transfluthrin, ensuring accurate and reliable residue analysis. These materials are essential for laboratories conducting food and environmental analysis to ensure compliance with regulatory limits.
