Description

Methyl Parathion, [Ring 14C(U)] CAS NO 97067-68-0 is a radiolabeled analog of the organophosphate insecticide Methyl Parathion, specifically labeled with carbon-14 on the phenyl ring. This compound is a critical tool for conducting advanced metabolic, environmental fate, and residue analysis studies. It is primarily required by agrochemical research laboratories, environmental testing facilities, and regulatory science organizations for precise tracer experiments and analytical method development.

Application

• Metabolism and Pharmacokinetic Studies: Tracing the absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) pathways in plants, animals, and insects.
• Environmental Fate Research: Investigating degradation pathways, soil binding, leaching potential, and photodegradation in environmental matrices.
• Residue Analysis Method Development: Serving as an internal standard or tracer for validating sensitive analytical methods like LC-MS/MS for regulatory compliance.
• Mode of Action Studies: Elucidating the biochemical interactions and binding sites of the insecticide at a molecular level.
• Toxicology and Ecotoxicology: Assessing bioaccumulation, biomagnification, and chronic exposure effects in non-target organisms.
