REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY INFORMATION
: Listed below is information concerning the effects of this product and its
components on the human reproductive system.
Mutagenicity: When used as directed, this product is not expected to produce mutagenic effects in humans.
Embryotoxicity: When used as directed, this product is not expected to produce embryotoxic effects in humans.
Teratogenicity: When used as directed, this product is not expected to produce teratogenic effects in humans.
Reproductive Toxicity: When used as directed, this product is not expected to produce reproductive toxicity in humans.
A mutagen
is a chemical that causes permanent changes to genetic material (DNA) such that the changes will propagate through
generational lines. An embryotoxin
is a chemical that causes damage to a developing embryo (i.e. within the first eight weeks of
pregnancy in humans), but the damage does not propagate across generational lines. A teratogen
is a chemical that causes damage to
a developing fetus, but the damage does not propagate across generational lines. A reproductive toxin
is any substance that interferes
in any way with the reproductive process.
