Pesticide Standards

Applications Butacaine Sulphate (cas# 149-15-5) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.

Applications Paraquat is a quarternary nitrogen compound that is used as an herbicide to eliminate unwanted weeds and grasses by inducing superoxide production in the mitochondria, causing a great deal of oxidative damage. Paraquat is highly toxic to humans, causing acute poisoning, lung damage and death. Paraquat is also thought to cause Parkinson’s disease. Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References Cochemé, H., & Murphy, M.: J. Biol. Chem., 283, 1786 (2008); Suntres, Z.: Toxicology, 180, 65 (2002); Yang, W., et al.: J. Toxicol. Env. Heal. Part A: 71, 289 (2008)

Applications Tolfenpyrad is used as foliar insecticide for the control of green peach aphids in broccoli. Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References Thurman, E., et al.: Food Addit. Contam., 23, 1169 (2006), Mezcua, M., et al.: Food Chem., 112, 221 (2009)

Applications Fenoxycarb is a carbamate insect growth regulator by preventing immature insects from reaching maturity by mimicking juvenile hormone. Used as a standard for Pesticide detection. Fenoxycarb is also used in cannabis testing kits as a component of pesticide mixes (P698235). Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References El-Saeid, M.H., et al.: J. Chem., 10, (2013); Coors, A., et al.: Environ. Toxicol.

Applications 1,1'-Oxybis[2-chloro-ethane] is a carcinogen. It is an intermediate used to prepare 2,2'-[Oxybis(2,1-ethanediylimino)]bis-ethanol which is patented as one of the antibacterial oral compositions in mouthwash. Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package References Norpoth, K., et al.: J. Cancer Res. Clin. Oncol., 112, 125 (1986); Weisburger, E., et al.: J. Nat. Cancer. Inst., 67, 75 (1981); Gaffar, A., et al.: U.S. (1980), US 4224309 A 19800923.
