Computation from Poisoning Endpoints and you can Environment Study
Rat acute oral and inhalation toxicity endpoints can be obtained from the “six-pack” of core studies, which are a series of six guideline studies that are submitted to the Registration Division of the Office of Pesticide Programs for formulated and technical grade products of a pesticide. Previous Health Effects Division (HED) or EFED risk assessments may contain this information. If not, these data can be obtained by contacting the appropriate risk manager in the Registration Division for a specific pesticide. Avian acute oral LDfifty data may come from either a supplemental or acceptable study that provides the most sensitive toxicity endpoint to be used in the model. These studies may be either registrant-submitted or from open literature identified by the ECOTOXicology database (U). The decision to use data from a specific study will depend on EFED guidance related to acceptance criteria and the use of open literature (Uc). In the absence of these data, STIR cannot be used to evaluate potential risk from inhalation exposure. Depending on the use, these studies should be requested as they are required under the 40 CFR 158 regulations for most outdoor uses.
