Assessment toxicity to reproduction
Imidacloprid caused reproduction toxicity in a two-generation study in rats only at dose levels also toxic
to the parent animals. The reproduction toxicity seen with Imidacloprid is related to parental toxicity.
Assessment developmental toxicity
Imidacloprid caused developmental toxicity only at dose levels toxic to the dams. The developmental
effects seen with Imidacloprid are related to maternal toxicity.
