Information on toxicological effects
Symptoms
Large doses of zeta-cypermethrin, ingested by laboratory animals, may produce signs of
toxicity including tremors, incoordination, convulsions, staggered gait, and oral discharge.
Delayed and immediate effects as well as chronic effects from short and long-term exposure
Chronic toxicity
Zeta-cypermethrin: Long-term exposure caused neurotoxicity (body tremors, decreased
motor activity), decreased body weight and increased liver weight.
Mutagenicity
Zeta-cypermethrin: Not genotoxic in animal studies
Carcinogenicity
Cypermethrin caused an increase in benign lung tumors in mice, but not in rats. EPA has
classified cypermethrin as a possible human carcinogen based on this information, but
does not regulate based on its low cancer risk.
Neurological effects
Zeta-cypermethrin: Causes neurotoxicity (tremors and decreased motor activity) following
acute, subchronic or chronic exposure.
Reproductive toxicity
Contains ingredients that are suspected reproductive hazards.
Zeta-cypermethrin. No toxicity to reproduction in animal studies.
Developmental toxicity
Zeta-cypermethrin: Not teratogenic in animal studies.
STOT - single exposure
Causes damage to organs. See listed target organs below.
STOT - repeated exposure
May cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure. See listed target
organs below.
Target organ effects
Central Nervous System, blood
Neurological effects
Zeta-cypermethrin: Causes neurotoxicity (tremors and decreased motor activity) following
acute, subchronic or chronic exposure.
Aspiration hazard
No information available.
