Description

Chlormephos-Oxon is a key organophosphate oxon metabolite and a critical reference standard for analytical and research purposes. Its precise chemical profile is essential for ensuring accurate detection, quantification, and study of related pesticide compounds in environmental and toxicological analyses. This high-purity standard is primarily required by analytical laboratories, agrochemical research institutions, and regulatory bodies involved in residue testing and method development.

Application

• Analytical Reference Standard: Primary use as a certified standard for calibrating equipment and validating analytical methods in Gas Chromatography (GC) and Liquid Chromatography (LC) systems.
• Environmental Monitoring: Critical for the detection and quantification of Chlormephos and its metabolites in soil, water, and air samples to assess environmental contamination.
• Toxicology & Metabolism Studies: Used in research to understand the metabolic pathways, degradation products, and toxicological profile of organophosphate insecticides.
• Residue Analysis: Essential for testing agricultural products (fruits, vegetables, grains) to ensure compliance with Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) for food safety.
• Method Development & Validation: Serves as a benchmark compound for developing new, sensitive analytical protocols in regulatory and commercial labs.
• Quality Control (QC) in Manufacturing: Used by agrochemical producers to monitor the purity and stability of active ingredients and formulations.
