Abstract
The extensive worldwide efforts of structural modification of natural pyrethrins for better performances have resulted in successful development of a wide variety of synthetic pyrethroids with tremendously high efficacy, knock-down activity or vapor action, and/or with acceptable environmental stability and safety. Currently these pyrethroids including their preferentially manufactured stereoisomers are widely used in agriculture, and for public health as well as household insect control. The detailed toxicology and metabolism studies intended to attain human risk assessment have revealed that with voltage-dependent sodium channel as target site pyrethroids induce pronounced repetitive activity characterized grossly by tremor, hypersensitivity, choleoathetosis, and salivation. In addition, so-called cyano-pyrethroids cause transient skin paresthesia in workers. With regard to tumorigenicity, mutagenicity, teratogenicity and developmental toxicity, no significant findings have been reported. Pyrethroids are eliminated from the animals quite rapidly and completely, undergoing oxidation and ester hydrolysis followed by various conjugations, with low tissue residues. Thus, overall, sound scientific bases exist for human risk assess...Continue Reading
