A maximum residue limit (MRL) of 0.01 mg/kg is applicable for the presence of resmethrin (including other mixtures of constituent isomers (sum of isomers)) in fresh/frozen fruits, and tree nuts, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2015/868.

Application

The certified reference material (CRM) is intended to be used as a calibrant for chromatography and other analytical techniques.The certified reference material resmethrin may find the following uses:
  • To evaluate the toxicity of resmethrin on the male reproductive system using a testis organ-culture method
    Quantification of tetramethrin and resmethrin in human body fluids using liquid chromatography (LC)–tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS)
  • Characterization of the interaction between resmethrin and calf thymus DNA in vitro by multiple spectroscopic methods
  • Heterogeneous reactions study of resmethrin, phenothrin, and fenvalerate particles with nitrate radicals
  • Synthetic pyrethroid pesticides toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans to analyze physiological change
