In rat single dose toxicity studies, clinical signs and symptoms including wide base gait, lack of stability, incontinence, salivation and upward curve of the spine, reduced motor activity and abnormal gait, tremors, tonic convulsions and ataxia were found (Agricultural Chemical Registration Data (1992)). These effects were observed at dosing levels within the guidance value ranges for Category 1. | |
9 | Specific target organ toxicity - Repeated exposure | Classification not possible | - | - | - | - | In rat subacute toxicity studies, decreased food consumption and reduced body weight gains were reported (Agricultural Chemical Registration Data (1992)). However, classification is not possible since no other treatment-related general symptoms or pathological findings were observed. |

11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Acute) | Category 1 | Warning | H400: Very toxic to aquatic life |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P391: Collect spillage. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
It was classified into Category 1 from 96 hours LC50=0.053ppb of the crustacea (Mysid Shrimp)) (AQUIRE, 2003). | |
11 | Hazardous to the aquatic environment (Long-term) | Category 1 | Warning | H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects |
P273: Avoid release to the environment. P391: Collect spillage. P501: Dispose of contents/container to ... |
Since acute toxicity was Category 1 and there was no rapidly degrading (BIOWIN), and since there wasbio-accumulation (log Kow=6.5 (PHYSPROP Database, 2005)), it was classified into Category 1. |
