generation study in rats.
Clothianidin is not considered a reproductive toxicant at non-maternally toxic
dose levels.
DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Imidacloprid is not considered a primary
developmental toxicant in rats and rabbits. Developmental effects were
observed at doses that caused maternal toxicity.
Clothianidin was not a primary developmental toxicant in rats and rabbits.
Developmental effects were observed in rabbits but were considered secondary
to maternal toxicity.
Neurotoxicity
Imidacloprid showed slight behavioral and activity changes only at the highest
dose tested in neurotoxicity studies in rats. There were no correlating
morphological changes observed in the neural tissues.
Clothianidin was not a neurotoxicant in acute, subchronic and developmental
neurotoxicity screening studies in rats.
Mutagenicity
Imidacloprid was not mutagenic or genotoxic based on the overall weight of
evidence in a battery of in vitro and in vivo tests.
Clothianidin was not genotoxic based on the overall weight of evidence in a
battery of in vitro and in vivo tests.
