guinea pig: Non-sensitizing.
Sensitization
Fipronil caused liver, kidney or thyroid effects and/or neurobehavioral effects
Chronic Toxicity
(e.g., tremors) in chronic toxicity studies in rats and dogs. Fipronil did not induce
any microscopic lesions in the neural tissues.
Assessment Carcinogenicity
Fipronil has been classified by EPA as a Category C carcinogen based on thyroid tumors in rats only.
These tumors are produced by a mechanism which is not relevant to human cancer. Fipronil did not
produce an increase in tumor incidence in mice.

Developmental Toxicity
DEVELOPMENTAL TOXICITY: Fipronil was not a developmental toxicant in rats
and rabbits.
Fipronil caused transient neurobehavioral effects (e.g., tremors) in neurotoxicity
