Subchronic Toxicity
Beta-cyfluthrin produced general signs of toxicity (e.g., decreased body weights)
and/or neurobehavioral effects (e.g., uncoordinated gait) in subchronic dietary
studies (rats,dogs) and in a 4-week inhalation study (rats).
Assessment Carcinogenicity
ACGIH
None.
NTP
None.
IARC
None.
OSHA
None.
Reproductive &
Developmental Toxicity
Beta-cyfluthrin was not a primary developmental toxicant in a developmental
toxicity study in rats. Developmental effects (e.g., delayed ossifications) were
observed at the high-dose but were considered secondary to maternal toxicity.
Neurotoxicity
Beta-cyfluthrin produced slight transient neurobehavioral effects at the highest
dose tested in acute and subchronic neurotoxicity screening studies in rats.
There were no correlating compound-related morphological changes in the
neural tissues in either study.
In a one-generation developmental neurotoxicity screening study in rats,
offspring exposed to beta-cyfluthrin exhibited a reduction in startle response
amplitude at the highest dose tested in conjunction with maternal toxicity. There
were no compound-related morphological changes observed in the neural
tissues.
Mutagenicity
Beta-cyfluthrin was not a mutagenic or genotoxic in a battery of in vitro and in
