Occurrence, Elimination, and Risk of Anticoagulant Rodenticides in Wastewater and Sludge Occurrence, elimination, and risk of anticoagulant rodenticides in wastewater and sludge Silvia Lacorte, Cristian Gómez- Canela Department of Environmental Chemistry, IDAEA-CSIC, Jordi Girona 18-26, 08034 Barcelona Rats and super-rats Neverending story 1967 Coumachlor 1 tn rodenticides /city per campaign “It will be the LAST ONE” Rodenticides Biocides: use regulated according to EU. Used mainly as bait formulations. First generation: multiple feedings, less persistent in tissues, commensal and outdoor use. Second generation: single feeding (more toxic), more persistent in tissue, commensal use only. Toxic: vitamin K antagonists that cause mortality by blocking an animal’s ability to produce several key blood clotting factors. High oral, dermal and inhalation toxicity. Origin and fate of rodenticides Study site: Catalonia (7.5 M inhabitants) 1693 km of sewage corridor 13 fluvial tanks (70.000 m3) 130,000,000 € / 8 YEARS 32,000 km2 378,742 kg/y AI 2,077,000 € Objectives 1. To develop an analytical method to determine most widely used rodenticides in wastewater and sludge. 2. To monitor the presence of rodenticides within 9 WWTP receiving urban and agricultural waters. 3. To evaluate the risk of rodenticides using Daphnia magna as aquatic toxicological model. 4. To study the accumulation of rodenticides in sludge.

Chapter 4 Pharmacokinetics of Anticoagulant Rodenticides in Target and Non-target Organisms Katherine E. Horak, Penny M. Fisher, and Brian Hopkins 1 Introduction The concentration of a compound at the site of action is a determinant of its toxicity. This principle is affected by a variety of factors including the chemical properties of the compound (pKa, lipophilicity, molecular size), receptor binding affinity, route of exposure, and physiological properties of the organism. Many compounds have to undergo chemical changes, biotransformation, into more toxic or less toxic forms. Because of all of these variables, predicting toxic effects and performing risk assess- ments of compounds based solely on dose are less accurate than those that include data on absorption, distribution, metabolism (biotransformation), and excretion of the compound.

  • Some Rodenticidal Properties of Coumatetralyl
    J.Hyg.,Camb. (1969), 67, 311 311 Printed in Great Britain Some rodenticidal properties of coumatetralyl BY J. H. GREAVES AND PRISCILLA AYRES Infestation Control Laboratory, Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food, Tolworth, Surrey {Received 26 September 1968) INTRODUCTION Coumatetralyl (3-(a-tetralyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin), an anti-coagulant rodenti- cide developed by Farbenfabriken Bayer A.G., has been used extensively against rats in Germany (Schultze, 1965). Comparatively little information is available, however, concerning its rodenticidal properties. The present laboratory study was therefore undertaken to investigate the toxicity of the anti-coagulant to warfarin- resistant and warfarin-susceptible rats (Rattus norvegicus Berk.) and to compare its palatability with that of warfarin (3-(<x-acetonylbenzyl)-4-hydroxycoumarin). METHODS Wild rats, presumed not to be resistant to warfarin (NR rats) were caught in a Midlands refuse destructor and on a Surrey farm. Warfarin-resistant (WR) rats were trapped on farms in three different areas of Britain: Nottinghamshire (WR Notts), Gloucestershire (WR Glos) and the Salop-Montgomeryshire area (WR Welsh). Field investigations had shown that the rats on the Nottinghamshire and Gloucestershire farms could not be controlled with warfarin. All ten WR Glos rats used in tests with coumatetralyl had first been given, and had survived, un- restricted feeding for 6 days on 0-005 % warfarin in the laboratory and similarly all but six of the 23 WR Notts rats had first been given periods of from 3 to 6 days on warfarin. The 53 WR Welsh animals had survived either 6 days feeding on 0-005 % warfarin or a single subcutaneous injection of 200 mg./kg.

  • New Zealand Data Sheet 1
    New Zealand Data Sheet 1. PRODUCT NAME NAXEN® 250 mg tablets 2. QUALITATIVE AND QUANTITATIVE COMPOSITION Each NAXEN 250 mg tablet contains 250 mg of Naproxen For the full list of excipients, see section 6.1. 3. PHARMACEUTICAL FORM NAXEN 250 mg tablets are yellow, biconvex, round tablet of 11 mm diameter with one face engraved NX250 and having a bisecting score. The score line is only to facilitate breaking for ease of swallowing and not to divide into equal doses. 4. CLINICAL PARTICULARS 4.1. Therapeutic indications NAXEN is indicated in adults for the relief of symptoms associated with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, tendonitis and bursitis, acute gout and primary dysmenorrhoea. NAXEN is indicated in children for juvenile arthritis. 4.2. Dose and method of administration After assessing the risk/benefit ratio in each individual patient, the lowest effective dose for the shortest possible duration should be used (see Section 4.4). During long-term administration the dose of naproxen may be adjusted up or down depending on the clinical response of the patient. A lower daily dose may suffice for long-term administration. In patients who tolerate lower doses well, the dose may be increased to 1000 mg per day when a higher level of anti-inflammatory/analgesic 1 | P a g e activity is required. When treating patients with naproxen 1000 mg/day, the physician should observe sufficient increased clinical benefit to offset the potential increased risk. Dose Adults For rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and ankylosing spondylitis Initial therapy: The usual dose is 500-1000 mg per day taken in two doses at 12 hour intervals.

Email: [email protected] (J. Regnery); phone: +49 261 1306 5987 Journal Pre-proof A manuscript prepared for possible publication in: Science of the Total Environment May 2020 1 Journal Pre-proof Abstract Prevalent findings of anticoagulant rodenticide (AR) residues in liver tissue of freshwater fish recently emphasized the existence of aquatic exposure pathways. Thus, a comprehensive wastewater treatment plant and surface water monitoring campaign was conducted at two urban catchments in Germany in 2018 and 2019 to investigate potential emission sources of ARs into the aquatic environment. Over several months, the occurrence and fate of all eight ARs authorized in the European Union as well as two pharmaceutical anticoagulants was monitored in a variety of aqueous, solid, and biological environmental matrices during and after widespread sewer baiting with AR-containing bait. As a result, sewer baiting in combined sewer systems, besides outdoor rodent control at the surface, was identified as a substantial contributor of these biocidal active ingredients in the aquatic environment. In conjunction with heavy or prolonged precipitation during bait application in combined sewer systems, a direct link between sewer baiting and AR residues in wastewater treatment plant influent, effluent, and the liver of freshwater fish was established.
