Chronic Toxicity (Including Cancer): Toxic effects (increased mortality, decreased body weight, increased liver weight, decreased hemoglobin and hematocrit) were observed in laboratory animals only after long term repeated exposures to high dose levels of Naled Technical. The primary effect of repeated exposures is a decrease in cholinesterase activity. This product does contain a small amount of a chemical that is considered a Group C carcinogen (possibly carcinogenic to humans) by EPA and a Group 2B carcinogen (probably carcinogenic to humans on the basis of animal studies, but human data is inadequate) by IARC. Naled Technical did not produce cancer in tests with laboratory animals. Overall, this product is not expected to be a chronic hazard when used according to label directions. Teratology (Birth Defects) Information: Naled Technical did not produce birth defects in tests with animals. This product is not expected to be a developmental hazard when used according to label directions. Reproduction Information: Naled Technical did produce reproductive toxicity in tests with laboratory animals, but only at high dose levels which also produced systemic toxicity. Overall, this product is not expected to be a reproductive hazard when used according to label directions. Potentially Aggravated Condition: Individuals with preexisting medical conditions which lower cholinesterase levels may have increased susceptibility to cholinesterase depression. For complete discussion of the toxicology data from which this evaluation was made, refer to Section 11. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES --------------------------------------------------------------------------- EMERGENCY NUMBER: (800) 892-0099 EYES: Immediately hold eyelids open and flush eyes with plenty of fresh water.

(Toxicity Category I, corrosive) Skin Irritation: This product caused irreversible damage to intact and abraded rabbit skin. (Toxicity Category I, corrosive) Dermal Toxicity: No product specific data. The rabbit dermal LD50 for a similar product (Naled Technical) was determined to be 390 mg/kg in males and 360 mg/kg in females. Clinical signs of exposure include tremors, reduced motor skills, and salivation. (Toxicity Category II) Oral Toxicity: No product specific data. The rat oral LD50 for a similar product (Naled Technical) was determined to be 191 mg/kg in males and 92 mg/kg in females. Clinical signs of exposure include tremors, reduced motors skills, salivation, and loose feces. (Toxicity Category II) Inhalation Toxicity: The rat four-hour LC50 for this product was determined to be 200 mg/m^3 in males and 190 mg/m^3 in females. Clinical signs of exposure include tremors, reduced motor skills, salivation, ocular and nasal discharge, and abnormal respiratory sounds. (Toxicity Category II) Skin Sensitization: No product specific data. A similar product (Naled Technical) exhibited a weakly positive response to challenge in a guinea pig skin sensitization test. SUBCHRONIC: This product contains Naled Technical, an organophosphate insecticide, which inhibits the enzyme cholinesterase following both acute and subchronic overexposures. Signs and symptoms which may be seen, usually within 12 hours following overexposure, may include, but not be limited to, headache, dizziness, constriction of the pupil, blurred or dark vision, excessive salivation or nasal discharge, profuse sweating, abdominal cramps, nausea, diarrhea and vomiting. Incontinence, unconsciousness and convulsions indicate severe poisoning. In untreated severe poisoning, respiratory depression or cardiac arrest may be fatal. Repeated exposures may result in depletion of cholinesterase. Additional slight exposure may then result in signs and symptoms. Dermal Toxicity: Dermal administration of Naled Technical to rats at 20 and 80 mg/kg/day caused severe dermal irritation and a dose-related cholinesterase inhibition. Clinical signs of exposure include tremors, reduced motor skills, and salivation Oral Toxicity: Oral administration of Naled Technical to rats, mice and dogs caused the inhibition of plasma, erythrocyte, and brain cholinesterase activity. A NOEL for inhibition of plasma cholinesterase activity is reported to be 0.25 mg/kg/day in dogs and a NOEL in rats is reported to be 30 ppm. Clinical signs of exposure include tremors, reduced motor skills, salivation, and loose feces. Naled Technical was tested in a standard neurotoxicity assay in the hen. The hens in this study were given lethal doses of Naled Technical and were treated with appropriate antidotes. There was no effect on neurotoxic esterase levels (an indicator of neurotoxicity) and no signs of neurotoxicity were noted. However, microscopic examination of the spinal cord and peripheral nerves did show some damage to these structures. Since the damage was slight and no observable neurotoxicity occurred, we conclude that neurological injury will probably not occur from normal use of Naled Technical. However, because of these findings and the toxicity and irritant nature of Naled Technical, all of the precautions discussed in this bulletin and on the label should be strictly followed. Inhalation Toxicity: Inhalation of Naled Technical by rats caused the inhibition of plasma, erythrocyte, and brain cholinesterase activity. The NOEL for a 13-week exposure was reported to be 0.23 mg/m^3. Clinical signs of exposure include tremors, reduced motor skills, ocular and nasal discharge, and abnormal respiratory sounds. CHRONIC/CARCINOGENICITY: In a one year feeding study using dogs, Naled Technical caused a reduction in plasma, erythrocyte, and brain cholinesterase activity. The NOEL for this study was 0.2 mg/kg/day. In a two year gavage study using rats, Naled Technical caused a dose-related reduction in plasma, erythrocyte, and brain cholinesterase activity. The NOEL for cholinesterase inhibition was 0.2 mg/kg/day. Naled Technical was not carcinogenic in rats. In a lifetime gavage study in mice, Naled Technical produced an increase in mortality, a reduction in male body weights and increased relative liver weights in females. The NOEL for this study was 15 mg/kg/day. Naled Technical was not carcinogic in mice. TERATOLOGY/DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: In a developmental toxicity study in rats, Naled Technical produced maternal toxicity (body weight loss, tremors, dyspnea and decreased activity) at 40 mg/kg/day. No development effects were observed at this dose level. The maternal NOEL was 10 mg/kg/day. The developmental NOEL was 40 mg/kg/day. In developmental toxicity studies in rabbits, Naled Technical produced maternal toxicity (cholinergic signs) at dose levels of 10 mg/kg/day and higher. Developmental effects at 10 mg/kg/day consisted of decreased fetal body weights. The NOEL for maternal and developmental toxicity was 8 mg/kg/day. REPRODUCTION: In a two-generation rat reproduction study with Naled Technical, a decrease in male body weight gain was observed at 18 mg/kg/day, however, no effects on reproduction were found in adult animals. Decreases in offspring survival, number of pups born and decreased pup weights were noted at 18 mg/kg/day. The NOEL for both adults and offspring was 6 mg/kg/day. MUTAGENICITY: The following tests with Naled Technical were negative: microbial/microsome reverse mutation assay (Ames test); the in vitro unscheduled DNA synthesis in rat primary hepatocytes assay; the in vivo micronucleus test; the in vivo chromosome aberration in rat bone marrow cells assay; and the mouse spot test. OTHER: This product contains, as an impurity, a small percentage of a chemical that has been shown to produce stomach tumors in mice exposed to 20-40 mg/kg/day for a lifetime. Evidence for cancer in rats exposed by the same route is less clear, though leukemia and tumors of the pancreas and mammary glands have been reported at doses of 4-8 mg/kg/day. Several cancer bioassays have been conducted on this chemical and positive results were reported only in the two studies in which this chemical was administered by mouth to the test animals. Negative or equivocal results were produced in tests where the animals were exposed by inhalation or in food or drinking water. However, interpretation of the negative studies is complicated by poor survival or insufficient numbers of animals examined in many cases. EPA has classified this impurity as a Group C carcinogen (possibly carcinogenic to humans) and IARC has classified it as a Group 2B carcinogen (probably carcinogenic to humans on the basis of animals studies, but human data is inadequate). Repeated administration of this impurity has also been shown to produce non-cancerous changes in the liver and adrenal glands of exposed animals. In mutagenesis assays, this impurity produced positive results in bacteria, fungi, and cultured mammalian cells. Mutagenicity tests with rodents were generally negative. There is no evidence that this impurity has caused any of the effects described above in humans. However, because of the potential for health effects demonstrated in animals, it is particularly important to follow the precautionary procedures outlined in this document and on the product label to minimize exposure. This product contains an inert ingredient that when inhaled can cause nasal and respiratory irritation, central nervous system effects including dizziness, weakness, fatigue, nausea, headache and possible unconsciousness, and even death. Ingestion of this chemical can cause gastrointestinal irritation, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Aspiration of material into the lungs can cause chemical pneumonitis which can be fatal. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SECTION 12: ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION --------------------------------------------------------------------------- AVIAN TOXICITY: The acute oral toxicity (LD50) of Naled Technical to Avian species are: Canada Goose 36.9 mg/kg Mallard 52.2 mg/kg Ring-necked Pheasant 120 mg/kg Sharp-tailed Grouse 64.9 mg/kg The dietary toxicity (LC50) of Naled Technical to Avian species are: Japanese Quail 1,328 ppm Mallard 2,724 ppm Northern Bobwhite 2,117 ppm Ring-necked Pheasant 2,538 ppm AQUATIC ORGANISM TOXICITY: The 96-hour LC50 values of Naled Technical are: Freshwater Organisms: Bluegill Sunfish 2.20 mg/L Rainbow Trout 0.20 mg/L Fathead Minnow 3.30 mg/L Estuarine Organisms: Sheepshead Minnow 1.20 mg/L Grass Shrimp 0.0089 mg/L Eastern Oyster 0.19 mg/l The 48-hour LC50 for Daphnia magna is 0.00035 mg/L OTHER NON-TARGET ORGANISM TOXICITY: Naled Technical is harmful to mammals and bees.
