formulation containing 10% by weight of the insecticidal ingredient and the dermal sensitization is based
on the technical Ectrin庐, unlikely from ear tag device. Long term studies in laboratory animals have
produced evidence of adverse neurological effects. No indication of teratogenic, mutagenic or internal
reproductive effects were detected in chronic animal studies. (Studies conducted with technical
chemical).
Acute effects on humans Exposure may produce a transient burning and/or tingling sensation from skin contact.
