General description

EPN belongs to the class of organophosphorus insecticides extensively used in agriculture for the control of a wide range of insect pests.[1][2] Its mode of action involves the inhibition of acetylcholinesterase activity in insects.[2]

Application

EPN may be used as an analytical reference standard for the quantification of the analyte in tea[3] and environmental[1] samples using various chromatography techniques.
