TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION Acute toxicity – Oral : Acute Dermal LD50 > 2,000 mg/kg (a.i) (Rat) LC50 =0.13 mg/litre,4hr (a.i) (Rat). Respirable ziram is highly toxic by inhalation. However, this is a granular solid that will not form respirable dust under normal handling conditions. Not irritating (Rabbit). Irritating in Humans. Highly irritating to eyes and mucous membranes. (Rabbit) This product is not listed as a carcinogen by NTP, IARC or OSHA, however, ziram has been associated with increased cancer rates in some animal studies. IARC has classified ziram as Group 3 – not classifiable as to carcinogenicity in humans and inadequate evidence of carcinogenicity in animal studies. NTP carcinogenicity bioassay (feed) showed clear evidence of carcinogenicity in mice and rats. Ziram is mutagenic in some test systems. Ziram has been found to cause adverse reproductive effects and teratogenic effects in some studies with laboratory animals Overexposure to high doses of ziram may cause dermatitis, metabolic disorders, blood abnormalities and kidney and liver damage. An antabuse-like reaction with flushing, sweating, headache, weakness and hypertension may occur when ethyl alcohol (alcoholic beverages) is ingested following exposure to this _______________________________________________________________________________________________ Issued by Elliott Technologies Limited Page 4 of 6 22.08.2005 SDS Mizar ES117 Product: Mizar Granuflo Very toxic to aquatic organisms. in aquatic environment, toxic to fish.
