BETA-CYFLUTHRIN TECHNICAL
Sub-Chronic Toxicity
In a subchronic dietary study, dogs treated with beta-cyfluthrin, exhibited
vomiting, diarrhea, decreased body weight gain and clinical neurological
symptoms at the highest dose level (360 ppm).
In a subchronic dietary study in rats treated with beta-cyfluthrin, effects included
reduced body weight gains and feed consumption, uncoordinated gait, and skin
injuries of the neck and head from excessive preening due to the local irritant
effect of the test material.
In a 4-week inhalation study in rats exposed to beta-cyfluthrin, effects observed
included ungroomed fur, piloerection, hyper- and hypoactivity, reduced body
weight gains, hematological changes and reduced organ weights (thymus,
spleen).

BETA-CYFLUTHRIN TECHNICAL
Reproductive &
DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: In an oral developmental toxicity study in rats
Developmental Toxicity
treated with beta-cyfluthrin, decreased fetal body weights and an increased
incidence of skeletal findings were observed at the maternally toxic and lethal
high dose level (40 mg/kg).
BETA-CYFLUTHRIN TECHNICAL
Neurotoxicity
In acute and subchronic neurotoxicity screening studies in rats, beta-cyfluthrin
produced slight transient neurobehavioral effects in each study at the highest
dose tested. There were no correlating morphological changes in neural tissues
in either study.
BETA-CYFLUTHRIN TECHNICAL
Mutagenicity
Numerous in vitro and in vivo mutagenicity studies have been conducted on
beta-cyfluthrin, all of which are negative.
