Pyrethoid Insecticides PROCESS ECONOMICS PROGRAM SRI INTERNATIONAL Menlo Park, California 94025 Abstract Process Economics Program Report No. 143 PYRETHROID INSECTICIDES (June 1981) The technology, economics, and marketing strategies of synthetic pyrethroids are reviewed. Four relatively new compounds--permethrin, cypermethrin, decamethrin, and fenvalerate--are being commercially used in controlling many agricultural insect pests at practical doses up to one-tenth that required by conventional synthetic insecticides, with significantly lower polluting persistence, lower mammalian toxicity, and lower insect resistance. The technology consists of a series of complex stepwise organic syntheses, most of which are covered by recent patents issued to many companies which are already active in or planning to enter this field. An in-depth technical and economic analysis is made for a perme- thrin design at 2 million lb per year with educated cost approximations for the other compounds. The processes are based upon the use of rela- tively inexpensive raw materials to produce all the required intermedi- ates rather than purchase these intermediates at expensive prices.

The CDC bottle bioassay is used to assess resistance by comparing known insecticide diagnostic doses and diagnostic times from an insecticide-susceptible population. The objective of this study was to determine diagnostic doses and diagnostic times for α-cypermethrin and the lethal dose for 50% and 90% mortality for α- cypermethrin, permethrin, and DDT for Phlebotomus argentipes. Methods: The CDC bottle bioassays were performed in 1,000 mL glass bottles with 15- 25 sand flies from a laboratory strain of insecticide-susceptible P. argentipes. A range of concentrations of α-cypermethrin, permethrin, and DDT were evaluated.

  • TITLE: Lindane and Other Treatments for Lice and Scabies: a Review of Clinical Effectiveness and Safety
    TITLE: Lindane and Other Treatments for Lice and Scabies: A Review of Clinical Effectiveness and Safety DATE: 11 June 2010 CONTEXT AND POLICY ISSUES: Head lice infestation (Pediculosis capitis) affects millions of children and adults worldwide each year.1 Direct head-to-head contact is the most common mode of transmission.2 The highest prevalence of infestation occurs in school aged children aged three to eleven years, with girls being more commonly affected than boys.1,2 Although head lice are not generally associated with serious morbidity, they are responsible for significant social embarrassment and lost productivity in schools or offices.1 Scabies, an infestation of the skin by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei, represents a common public health concern particularly in overcrowded communities with a high prevalence of poverty.3 Scabies is transmitted by close-person contact and occasionally by clothing or linens.3 Complications include secondary bacterial infections and post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis.3 Topical products available in Canada for the treatment of head lice and scabies are presented in Appendix 1 and Appendix 2. Insecticidal agents such as permethrin and lindane have historically been considered the standard treatments for head lice and scabies.2,3 Toxicity is low following topical administration of permethrin due to minimal percutaneous absorption.4 However, several jurisdictions have banned lindane due to concerns of neurotoxicity and bone marrow suppression, as well as potential negative effects on the environment (contamination of waste water).5 Furthermore, widespread use of permethrin, pyrethrins/piperonyl butoxide, and lindane has led to resistance and higher rates of treatment failure.6 Resistance patterns and rates to these agents in Canada have not yet been studied.6 Due to concerns surrounding resistance and neurotoxicity, patients and caregivers have searched for alternative treatments.

  • 4. Chemical and Physical Information
    PYRETHRINS AND PYRETHROIDS 131 4. CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL INFORMATION 4.1 CHEMICAL IDENTITY The naturally-occurring pyrethrins, extracted from chrysanthemum flowers, are esters of chrysanthemic acid (Pyrethrin I, Cinerin I, and Jasmolin I) and esters of pyrethric acid (Pyrethrin II, Cinerin II, and Jasmolin II). In the United States, the pyrethrum extract is standardized as 45–55% w/w total pyrethrins. The typical proportion of Pyrethrins I to II is 0.2:2.8, while the ratio of pyrethrins:cinerins:jasmolins is 71:21:7 (Tomlin 1997). Information regarding the chemical identity of the pyrethrins is presented in Table 4-1. Pyrethroids are synthetic esters derived from the naturally-occurring pyrethrins. One exception to the axiom that all pyrethroids are esters of carboxylic acids is noteworthy. There is a group of oxime ethers that exhibits insecticidal activity similar in nature to the pyrethrins and pyrethroid esters (Davies 1985). Little data exist regarding these compounds, and no commercial products have been produced. Commercially available pyrethroids include allethrin, bifenthrin, bioresmethrin, cyfluthrin, cyhalothrin, cypermethrin, deltamethrin, esfenvalerate (fenvalerate), flucythrinate, flumethrin, fluvalinate, fenpropathrin, permethrin, phenothrin, resmethrin, tefluthrin, tetramethrin, and tralomethrin. Information regarding the chemical identity of pyrethroids is shown in Table 4-2. With the exception of deltamethrin, pyrethroids are a complex mixture of isomers rather than one single pure compound. For pyrethroids possessing the cyclopropane moiety, isomerism about the cyclopropane ring greatly influences the toxicity of these insecticides. The presence of two chiral centers in the ring results in two pairs of diastereomers. The diastereomers and their nonsuperimposable mirror images (enantiomers) are illustrated in Figure 4-1.

  • NASTTPO CFATS Information 2Nd Edition
    National Association of SARA Title III Program Officials Concerned with the Emergency Planning and Community Right-to-Know Act January 13, 2008 Issue 07-01 2nd Edition The Department of Homeland Security has adopted 6 CFR Part 27, a new regulation mandated by Congress, known as Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS). The regulation is intended to fill a security gap in our country’s anti-terrorism efforts by identifying and improving the security of chemicals that are potentially at a high level of risk for release, theft, or sabotage. LEPCs and SERCs should alert EPCRA & RMP reporting facilities about these requirements. No reports are due to the LEPCs and SERCs under these requirements; however, given the potential for security requirements to have an impact on facility access for emergency responders and on emergency plans, it is critical for local planners, responders and facilities to communicate in order for a facility to satisfy the regulatory requirements. In order to aid LEPCs, SERCs and facilities in understanding these new requirements we have prepared some short-hand aids. Following this cover page is a key issue comparison between EPCRA, RMP and the CFATS regulation. As requirements may change the user is counseled to look for updated information. Following the side-by-side comparison we have edited the EPA “List of Lists” to add the Appendix A list of chemicals and thresholds from the CFATS program. This list may change and we will update these materials when that happens. The initial requirement for a facility with an Appendix A chemical at or over the threshold is to submit a Top-Screen.

    Therapeutic Class Overview Scabicides and Pediculicides Therapeutic Class Overview/Summary: The agents indicated for the management of scabies and head lice are listed in Table 1. The skin and mucous membrane scabicides and pediculicides are approved to treat pediculosis and scabies.1-10 Pediculosis is a transmissible infection, which is caused by three different kinds of lice depending on the location: head (Pediculus humanus capitis), body (Pediculus humanus corporis) and pubic region (Phthirus pubis). Pediculosis is often asymptomatic; however, itching may occur due to hypersensitivity to lice saliva.11 Scabies is also a transmissible skin infection caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei. Mites burrow into the skin and lay eggs, which when hatched, will crawl to the skin’s surface and begin to make new burrows. The most common clinical manifestation of scabies is itching, which is due to a hypersensitivity reaction to the mite or mite excrement.12 When treating scabies and lice, the goal of therapy is to eradicate the parasite. Benzyl alcohol inhibits lice from closing their respiratory spiracles, which causes the lice to asphyxiate.3 Crotamiton has scabicidal and antipruritic actions; however, the exact mechanism of action is unknown.4 Lindane is a central nervous system stimulant, which causes convulsions and death of the arthropod.1,2 Malathion is an organophosphate agent, which inhibits cholinesterase activity.5 Permethrin disrupts the sodium channel current, which leads to delayed repolarization and paralysis of the arthropod.1,2 Spinosad causes neuronal excitation, which leads to paralysis and death.6 The suspension also contains an unspecified amount of benzyl alcohol.
