Pesticide Tolerance
for residues in or on Beet (sugar roots and tops) and Chicory
(roots) -- all at 0.05 ppm. FINAL RULE.
-- Chronic toxicity rodents
NOAEL = 2.44 mg/kg/day LOAEL = 30.6 mg/kg/day based on decreased
body weight and body weight gain, alteration in hematology (mainly
males) and increased incidences of interstitial
cell hyperplasia in testes.
-- Chronic toxicity dogs
NOAEL = 26.9 mg/kg/day LOAEL = 116.6 mg/kg/day based on increased
liver weight, alkaline phosphatase,
and hepatocellular hypertrophy.
-- Carcino-genicity rats
NOAEL = 2.44 mg/kg/day LOAEL = 30.6 mg/kg/day based on decreased
body weight and body weight gain, alteration in hematology
(mainly males) and increased incidences
of interstitial cell hyperplasia in the testes. (Possible)
evidence of carcinogenicity
-- Carcino-genicity mice NOAEL
= 14.6 mg/kg/day LOAEL = 349 mg/kg/day based on increased
liver weight and increased hepatic
cell tumors (adenomas and/or carcinomas combined. (Possible)
evidence of carcinogenicity.
-- Special studies: In vivo The purpose
of these studies was to and in vitro mechanic investigate the
mechanism of Leydig cell studies
tumor induction in the testes of male rats.
A dose-dependent decrease in aromatase enzyme activity was seen
in vitro, but was inconclusive
in vivo. |
