Specifications
Target Information
Methyl parathion is a highly toxic organophosphate insecticide and acaricide used to control a broad spectrum of agricultural pests. Its relevance to animal-derived food safety stems from potential dietary carryover; livestock can ingest residues through contaminated feed crops, water, or treated pasturelands. Once consumed, it can potentially leave hazardous residues in meat, milk, and eggs. As a potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitor, it poses severe neurotoxic risks to humans even at low chronic exposure levels. Consequently, its use is heavily restricted or banned in many jurisdictions, and strict Maximum Residue Limits are maintained globally to prevent its entry into the animal-derived food supply.
