Description

Mecoprop D3 is a deuterated isotopologue of the widely used phenoxy herbicide mecoprop, specifically labeled with three deuterium atoms. This compound is a critical analytical standard and internal reference material for high-precision mass spectrometry and environmental fate studies. It is essential for researchers and quality control laboratories in the agrochemical, environmental monitoring, and regulatory compliance sectors who require accurate quantification and tracing of mecoprop residues.

Application

• Primary use as an internal standard for the quantitative analysis of mecoprop via LC-MS/MS and GC-MS.
• Critical component in environmental fate and metabolism studies to track herbicide degradation and movement in soil and water systems.
• Used in the development and validation of regulatory compliance testing methods for pesticide residues in food and water.
• Essential for isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) protocols to ensure highest accuracy and precision in analytical results.
• Supports pharmacokinetic and toxicological research involving mecoprop and related phenoxy herbicides.
• Reference material for quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) programs in analytical testing laboratories.

Quality Control

Our Mecoprop D3 is produced under strict quality management to ensure the high chemical purity and isotopic enrichment required for analytical applications. Each batch is characterized by advanced spectroscopic and chromatographic techniques, including NMR, HPLC, and mass spectrometry, to confirm identity, chemical purity, and deuterium incorporation. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be handled in a dry environment to prevent degradation. For long-term stability, consider storage under inert atmosphere.
