In
assessing
the
potential
for
additional
sensitivity
of
infants
and
children
to
residues
of
flufenpyr­
ethyl,
EPA
considers
the
completeness
of
the
human
health
effects
data,
particularly
those
studies
that
evaluate
toxicity
to
reproduction
and
to
fetal
and
developing
young
experimental
animals.
These
studies
include
developmental
toxicity
studies
in
the
rat
and
rabbit
and
a
2
 
generation
reproduction
study
in
the
rat.
The
developmental
toxicity
studies
are
designed
to
evaluate
adverse
effects
on
the
developing
organism
resulting
from
maternal
pesticide
exposure
during
gestation.
Reproduction
studies
provide
information
relating
to
prenatal
and
postnatal
effects
from
exposure
to
the
pesticide,
information
on
the
reproductive
capability
of
both
male
and
female
mating
animals
and
data
on
systemic
toxicity.
3.
Developmental
toxicity.
Flufenpyrethyl
is
not
a
developmental
toxicant
in
either
rats
or
rabbits.
In
the
developmental
toxicity
study
conducted
with
rats,
the
NOAEL
for
both
maternal
and
developmental
toxicity
was
found
to
be
1,000
mg/
kg/
day,
the
highest
dose
tested.
Flufenpyr
technical
was
tested
in
two
developmental
toxicity
studies
in
rabbits
because
of
unexpected
maternal
mortality.
In
the
first
study
maternal
mortality
occurred
at
the
two
highest
doses
tested.
In
surviving
animals
and
their
fetuses,
there
were
no
adverse
effects.
Based
on
these
results,
the
maternal
toxicity
NOAEL
was
100
mg/
kg/
day
and
the
developmental
toxicity
NOAEL
was
1,000
mg/
kg/
day.
In
the
second
study
maternal
mortality
again
occurred,
but
at
all
dose
levels.
Detailed
examination
of
most
these
animals
showed
the
cause
of
death
to
be
test
material
aspiration
into
the
lungs.
There
were
no
other
adverse
effects
in
the
surviving
dams
or
fetuses.
The
NOAEL
for
this
study
and
the
overall
NOAEL
for
rabbits
was
found
to
be
300
mg/
kg/
day
(
maternal)
and
1,000
mg/
kg/
day
(
developmental).
4.
Reproduction.
In
the
rat
reproduction
study,
flufenpyr­
ethyl
technical
was
administered
for
2
 
generations.
Parental
toxicity
(
kidney
and
liver
effects)
was
observed
at
all
dose
levels,
although
the
effects
at
the
low
dose
were
minimal.
There
were
no
effects
at
any
dose
on
any
reproductive
parameter.
Based
on
the
results
of
this
study,
the
NOAEL
for
parental
toxicity
was
considered
to
be
less
than
200
ppm.
The
NOAEL
for
reproductive
and
neonatal
toxicity
was
considered
to
be
20,000
ppm.
A
second
1
 
generation
reproduction
study
was
performed
to
establish
a
clear
NOAEL
for
adult
kidney
lesions
using
the
dose
levels
of
20,
50
and
100
ppm.
The
results
of
the
study
indicate
that
the
NOAEL
for
histological
changes
in
the
kidneys
for
F1
male
rats
was
100
ppm.
No
other
treatment­
related
findings
were
noted
at
any
dose
level
indicating
100
ppm
as
the
NOAEL
for
treatment
and
reproductive
effects
evaluated
in
the
study.
A
mechanistic
study
was
also
conducted
to
investigate
the
reproducibility
and
reversibility
of
the
kidney
lesions
observed
in
the
initial
2
 
generation
reproduction
study.
In
the
first
study,
the
effects
observed
at
200
ppm
in
the
F1
males,
basophilic
tubules
and
interstitial
inflamation,
were
minimal
but
slightly
increased
in
incidence
and
severity
and
a
slight
increase
in
interstitial
fibrosis
of
the
cortex
was
also
observed.
In
this
mechanistic
study,
using
dose
levels
of
0
and
2,000
ppm,
the
NOAEL
for
histological
changes
in
the
kidneys
of
F0
and
F1
male
rats
and
reproductive
effects
was
2,000
ppm.
The
histological
changes
seen
in
the
kidneys
in
the
original
study
was
not
reproducible.
The
toxicological
data
base
for
evaluating
prenatal
and
postnatal
toxicity
for
flufenpyr­
ethyl
is
complete
with
respect
to
current
data
requirements.
Valent
concludes
that
there
is
no
evidence
that
fetal,
or
developing
young
experimental
animals
are
any
more
susceptible
to
the
effects
of
flufenpyr­
ethyl
than
adult
animals.
Therefore
there
is
no
need
for
an
extra
FQPA
uncertainly
factor
to
be
further
protective
of
infants
and
children.
5.
Acute
exposure
and
risk.
There
is
no
acute
oral
toxic
endpoint
available,
so
no
risk
analysis
was
performed.
6.
Chronic
exposure
and
risk.
Using
the
conservative
exposure
assumptions
described
above,
the
percentage
of
the
cPAD
that
will
be
utilized
by
dietary
(
food
only)
exposure
to
residues
of
flufenpyr­
ethyl
ranges
from
0.16%
for
non­
nursing
infants,
to
0.03%
for
nursing
infants.
Adding
the
worse
case
potential
incremental
exposure
to
infants
and
children
from
flufenpyrethyl
in
drinking
water
(
0.00000267
mg/
kg/
day)
increases
the
aggregate,
chronic
dietary
exposure
by
0.0053%
The
addition
of
the
exposure
attributable
to
drinking
water
increases
the
occupancy
of
the
cPAD
for
Non­
Nursing
Infants
from
0.164
to
0.169
percent.
EPA
generally
has
no
concern
for
exposures
below
100%
of
the
cPAD
because
the
cPAD
represents
the
level
at
or
below
which
daily
aggregate
dietary
exposure
over
a
lifetime
will
not
pose
appreciable
risks
to
human
health.
It
can
be
concluded
that
there
is
a
reasonable
certainty
that
no
harm
will
result
to
infants
and
children
from
aggregate,
chronic
exposure
to
flufenpyr­
ethyl
residues.
7.
Safety
determination
summary.
Aggregate
chronic
dietary
exposure
to
various
sub­
populations
of
children
and
adults
demonstrate
acceptable
risk.
Chronic
dietary
exposures
to
flufenpyrethyl
occupy
considerably
less
than
100%
of
the
cPAD.
Acute
dietary
risk
to
children
from
flufenpyr­
ethyl
should
not
be
of
concern.
Further,
flufenpyrethyl
has
only
agricultural
uses
and
no
other
uses,
such
as
indoor
pest
control,
homeowner
or
turf,
that
could
lead
to
unique,
enhanced
exposures
to
vulnerable
sub­
groups
of
the
population.
It
can
be
concluded
that
there
is
a
reasonable
certainty
that
no
harm
will
result
to
the
U.
S.
population
or
to
any
sub­
group
of
the
U.
S.
population,
including
infants
and
children,
from
aggregate
chronic
exposures
to
flufenpyr­
ethyl
residues
resulting
from
proposed
uses.
There
is
no
evidence
that
acute
oral
exposures
to
flufenpyr
ethyl
causes
appreciable
toxicity,
and
no
exposure
and
risk
analyses
are
appropriate.

F.
International
Tolerances
There
are
no
existing
U.
S.
tolerances
or

Maximum
Residue
Limits
for
flufenpyr­
ethyl.
