and NTP. One inert ingredient contains a small amount (< 1%) of crystalline
Long-Term
silica which is a naturally occuring component of sand, clay, and inorganic soil.
Chronic exposure to inhalable crystalline silica is known to cause silicosis
(formation of fibrous tissue in the lung). IARC has listed the crystalline silica as a
probable human carcinogen (class 2A), based on human inhalation exposures
under excessive and chronic conditions (i.e. long term mineral or clay mining
working conditions).
Ficam D contains only a very small amount (<1%) of respirable crystalline silica.
Consequently, any long term risk, as those stated above under mining
conditions, is considered highly unlikely. Under the recommended conditions of
normal handling and use, excessive and chronic inhalation exposure by the
consumer is unlikely.

mortalities related to treatment were observed in rats and dogs at dose levels up
to 200 ppm and 500 ppm, respectively; the effects observed at the highest dose
were reduced blood cholinesterase level in rats and lower blood and brain
cholinesterase levels in dogs. Similarly, bendiocarb administered chronically to
mice at dietary dose levels up to 1250 ppm showed only an effect in increased
testes weight at the highest dose.

assay and in four other mutagenesis assays of bacteria, yeast, and rodents. In
an in vitro analysis of metaphase chromosomes from human lymphocyte cell
cultures, a positive result was observed only in the presence of metabolic
activation. However, an in vivo analysis of metaphase chromosomes of bone
marrow cells did not show any evidence of chromosomal damages, both in the
absence or presence of metabolic activation. It is concluded from the results of
these mutagenesis studies that bendiocarb does not damage chromosomes in
humans and animals under normal conditions of use.
