Ecotoxicology

Birds

Acute oral LD50 for bobwhite quail 1800, mallard ducks 2150 mg/kg. Dietary LC50 (8 d) for bobwhite quail 4450, mallard ducks 1280 mg/kg diet. 

Fish

LC50 (96 h) for bluegill sunfish 0.00035, rainbow trout 0.00015 mg/l. 

Daphnia

LC50 (48 h) 0.00016 mg/l. Low solubility in water and high affinity for soil contribute to produce little impact in aquatic systems under field conditions.
