  • 4. Chemical and Physical Information
    PYRETHRINS AND PYRETHROIDS 131 4. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL INFORMATION 4.1 CHEMICAL IDENTITY The naturally-occurring pyrethrins, extracted from chrysanthemum flowers, are esters of chrysanthemic acid (Pyrethrin I, Cinerin I, and Jasmolin I) and esters of pyrethric acid (Pyrethrin II, Cinerin II, and Jasmolin II). In the United States, the pyrethrum extract is standardized as 45–55% w/w total pyrethrins. The typical proportion of Pyrethrins I to II is 0.2:2.8, while the ratio of pyrethrins:cinerins:jasmolins is 71:21:7 (Tomlin 1997). Information regarding the chemical identity of the pyrethrins is presented in Table 4-1. Pyrethroids are synthetic esters derived from the naturally-occurring pyrethrins. One exception to the axiom that all pyrethroids are esters of carboxylic acids is noteworthy. There is a group of oxime ethers that exhibits insecticidal activity similar in nature to the pyrethrins and pyrethroid esters (Davies 1985). Little data exist regarding these compounds, and no commercial products have been produced. Commercially available pyrethroids include allethrin, bifenthrin, bioresmethrin, cyfluthrin, cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate (fenvalerate), flucythrinate, flumethrin, fluvalinate, fenpropathrin, permethrin, phenothrin, resmethrin, tefluthrin, tetramethrin, and tralomethrin. Information regarding the chemical identity of pyrethroids is shown in Table 4-2. With the exception of deltamethrin, pyrethroids are a complex mixture of isomers rather than one single pure compound. For pyrethroids possessing the cyclopropane moiety, isomerism about the cyclopropane ring greatly influences the toxicity of these insecticides. The presence of two chiral centers in the ring results in two pairs of diastereomers. The diastereomers and their nonsuperimposable mirror images (enantiomers) are illustrated in Figure 4-1.

The method is based on sampling 100 L of ambient surface water with a solid phase extraction (SPE) technique that uses both wound glass fiber filters for collecting the particulate-associated chemicals and XAD-2 resin for collecting the dissolved chemicals. The method detection limits of the analytes ranged from 0.58 to 8.16 ng/sample, which is equivalent to a detection limit range of 0.0058-0.082 ng/L for a 100 L water sample collected by the SPE technique. The SPE when coupled with HRGC/HRMS was a suitable match for detecting these chemicals at subnanogram per liter ranges that are toxicologically significant to aquatic organisms. To confirm the utility of this method for environmental applications, pyrethroids and PBO were found at subnanogram per liter concentrations in surface water samples collected from five tributaries (primarily urban creeks) of the San Francisco Bay, California. KEYWORDS: Pyrethroids; pesticides; XAD-2; HRGC/HRMS; San Francisco Bay INTRODUCTION by inhibiting a group of enzymes (mixed-function oxidases) that are involved in pyrethroid detoxification, which as a result The decision of the U.S.

  • Pyrethroid Insecticides: Use, Environmental Fate, and Ecotoxicology
    11 Pyrethroid Insecticides: Use, Environmental Fate, and Ecotoxicology Katherine Palmquist, Johanna Salatas and Anne Fairbrother Exponent United States 1. Introduction There was little public concern over potential nontarget effects of pesticides until the 1962 publication of Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring (Delaplane, 2000; Moore et al., 2009). Organochlorine insecticides (such as DDT) had been used intensively and were credited for many of the problems highlighted by Carson. Because of their accumulation in the environment and reproductive toxicity in people, their use was eventually phased out in most industrialized countries in the late 1970s and early 1980s (Moore et al., 2009). Organophosphate (OPs) and carbamate pesticides (based on the same chemistry and mode of action as nerve gas used by the military) took the place of the organochlorine products and have been widely used since the late 1970s. For the past three decades, OP pesticides have been the insecticides most commonly used by professional pest-control bodies and homeowners (Feo et al., 2010). However, in the late 1980s, OPs in California came under scrutiny when they began to show up in groundwater samples. In addition, because of their potentially toxic effects on people, The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considered a ban on both OP and carbamate insecticides as part of the Food Quality Protection Act (FQPA) of 1996. The FQPA mandated that the EPA reassess all pesticide tolerance levels considering aggregate exposures, cumulative effects from pesticides sharing common mechanisms of toxicity, and special protection for infants and children (Metcalfe et al. 2002). During the early 2000s, the EPA began phasing out residential uses of the two primary OPs, diazinon, and chlorpyrifos (CDPR 2008).

    Analysis of Pesticide Residues in Mango by GC/MS/MS With Bond Elut QuEChERS EN Kits Application Note Food Testing and Agriculture Authors Abstract Claudia Ciscato, Claudia Barbosa, and This application note describes the quantitative analysis of 19 of the 40 regulated Amir Gebara pesticides with maximum residue limits (MRLs) established by the Brazilian Health Instituto Biológico Surveillance Agency (ANVISA). We also analyzed nine pesticides found in mango Laboratório de Resíduos de Pesticidas during the monitoring programs developed in the Pesticide Residues Laboratory São Paulo, SP, Brazil (LRP/IB)/São Paulo State and by governmental programs. The samples were also analyzed with a qualitative multiresidue method for 258 pesticides, extending the Kumi Shiota Ozawa analytical scope to analytes with low probability of being present, as recommended Agilent Technologies Brasil Ltda. in SANCO/12571/2013 guidelines [1]. The extraction was performed using an Barueri, SP, Brazil Agilent Bond Elut QuEChERS EN kit. Target pesticides were analyzed by GC/MS/MS using an Agilent 7890A GC and an Agilent 7000B Triple Quadrupole GC/MS in a constant pressure/postcolumn backflush configuration (Pesticide Analyzer 411). The method was validated in terms of recovery and reproducibility. The limits of detection (LOD) ranged between 0.0006 and 0.0607 mg/kg and limits of quantitation (LOQ) were between 0.0025 and 0.5 mg/kg. LOQs were established as ¼ of MRL. Recoveries for all compounds were 70 to 120%, and RSDs were below 20% for five replicates. LODs were calculated as three times the RSDs at LOQ levels.

  • The Analysis of Pesticides & Related Compounds Using Mass Spectrometry
    APPENDICES The analysis of pesticides & related compounds using Mass Spectrometry John P. G. Wilkins 3 December 2015 Appendix I – Compilation of EI+ MS Data for Pesticides & related compounds Pesticides & Chemical Warfare (CW) agents .................................... 5 - 318 GC Contaminants & Artefacts ........................................................ 319 - 322 Supplementary accurate mass data for selected pesticides ........... 323 - 350 Appendix II – Eight Peak Index of MS Data in Appendix I ........................... 1 - 26 Appendix III – Comprehensive Pesticide MW Index ...................................... 1 - 30 Appendix - Page 1 Introduction to the Appendices The purpose of these data compilations is to provide a convenient source of data for analysts involved in the identification of pesticides using mass spectrometry. Data for related compounds, such as metabolites and degradation products produced during analysis, have been included when relevant. Where direct GC-MS techniques are unlikely to be of use, alternative analytical strategies are sometimes suggested. The MS data in Appendices I and II are presented in two ways: alphabetically by compound name in Appendix I (with data for commonly encountered GC contaminants at the end); and by most intense ion, in a style similar to that of The Eight Peak Index of Mass Spectra (MSDC, 1983), in Appendix II, in order to facilitate the identification of unknowns, without recourse to dedicated MS search software. Where possible, mass spectra were obtained following GC separation. When this was not possible, direct insertion (DI) introduction into the mass spectrometer was used. Most of the data are the averaged results of several acquisitions, generated at different times and (in many cases) on different mass spectrometers. Two magnetic sector instruments were used by the author to generate the data; a VG7070 (for packed column GC introduction) and a JEOL DX300 (for capillary GC introduction).
