Health hazards

Prochloraz has low acute toxicity. The LD50 in rats treated orally was 1600–2400 mg/kg bw, and the main toxic effects were reversible central nervous system depression and gastrointestinal irritation. WHO (1999) has classified prochloraz as ‘slightly hazardous’. The LD50 after dermal application was > 2100 mg/kg bw in rats and > 3000 mg/kg bw in rabbits, and the LC50 in rats exposed by inhalation for 4 h was > 2.2 mg/l of air, the highest achievable concentration. The compound was not irritating to the skin of rabbits after a 4 hour exposure, was not irritating to the eyes of rabbits and did not sensitize the guinea-pig skin in a Magnusson and Kligman maximization test. Harmful if swallowed.
