Additional information

The endpoint “toxicity to birds” is not a data requirement for the registered substance. However, for the sake of completeness this endpoint is covered by a short summary of the available data.

 

The acute oral and short-term dietary toxicity of tefuryltrione was assessed in the Bobwhite quail (Colinus virginianus, OECD 223 & 205, GLP), the Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica, OECD 223, GLP), and Mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos, OECD 205, GLP).

Tefuryltrione was of low acute oral and short-term dietary toxicity to Bobwhite quail, Japanese quail and Mallard duck since the acute oral LD50 was >2000 mg/kg body weight in all studies. Moreover, the dietary LC50 was >3980 mg/kg feed for Bobwhite quail and >4213 mg/kg feed for Mallard duck, indicating low short-term toxicity.

Beside one premature death, mortalities were observed at 2000 mg a.i./kg bw in the acute oral test with Japanese quail. Therefore, the non-lethal dose (NLD) was at 1734 mg a.i./kg bw. No mortalities occurred in the study with Bobwhite quail.

Dietary treatment up to 3980 mg/kg feed to Bobwhite quail had no effect on survival, growth and food consumption of the birds. The only effect observed in Mallard duck was a temporary change in food consumption of dosed birds compared to the control group.
