:TOXNET PIP-LAMBDA CYHALOTHRIN Page 3 of 4 <br /> population),for the eastern oyster of 0.59 ng/L has been reported (107). Bioconcentration is possible in aquatic <br /> species,but bioaccumulation is not likely. Bioconcentration in channel catfish has been reported as minimal, <br /> with rapid depuration(elimination) (111). A bioconcentration factor of 858 has been reported in fish(4, species <br /> unspecified),but concentration was confined to non-edible tissues and rapid depuration was observed (107). <br /> . Effects on Other Animals (Nontarget species): Lambda cyhalothrin is highly toxic to bees, with a reported oral <br /> LD50 of 38 ng/bee and reported contact LD50 of 909 ng/bee (0.9 ug/bee) (107). <br /> NVIRONMENTAL FATE <br /> reakdown of Chemical in Soil and Groundwater: Lambda cyhalothrin is moderately persistent in the soil <br /> ivironment. Reported field half-lives range from four to 12 weeks (107, 111, 112). Its field half-life is probably close <br /> 30 days in most soils (112). It shows a high affinity for soil;the reported Koc is 180,000 (112)..Lambda cyhalothrin <br /> not expected to be appreciably mobile in most soils. There is little potential for groundwater contamination. Soils <br /> ith high sand content or with very low organic matter content may tend to retain the compound to a lesser degree. In <br /> eld studies of Karate, leaching of lambda cyhalothrin and its degradates from the soil were minimal (12, 107). <br /> reakdown products formed in the soil environment are similar to those formed in mammalian systems, via the <br /> ydrolysis of the central ester bond and oxidation(12). Breakdown rates of both the technical product and Karate were <br /> milar under aerobic and anaerobic conditions (107, 111). <br />,reakdown of Chemical in Surface Water: Lambda cyhalothrin has extremely low water solubility and is tightly <br /> ound to soil,it is therefore not expected to be prevalent in surface waters. One possible source of infiltration into <br />.uface waters would be surface runoff. In this event,the compound would most probably remain bound to the solid <br /> article and settle to the bottom. <br /> reakdown of Chemical in Vegetation: No data were available regarding the breakdown of lambda cyhalothrin in <br /> egetation. <br />'HYSICAL PROPERTIES AND GUIDELINES <br />'hysical Properties: <br /> • Appearance: Lambda cyhalothrin is a colorless solid at room temperature, but may appear yellowish in solution. <br /> • Chemical Name: (RS)-alpha-cyano-3-phenoxybenzyl 3-(2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropenyl)-2,2,- <br /> dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate (12) <br /> • CAS Number: 91465-08-6 (12) <br /> • Molecular Weight: 449.9 (12) <br /> • Water Solubility: 0.005 mg/L @ pH 6.5 and 20 degrees C(12) <br /> • Solubility in Other Solvents: acetone v.s, methanol v.s.,toluene v.s., hexane v.s.
