The juvenile hormone mimics generally exhibit excellent acute and repeat dose hazard profiles in animals . Although they disrupt the normal endocrine function of insects , they do not do so in animals . For methoprene : Acute toxicity : Methoprene is practically nontoxic when ingested or inhaled and slightly toxic by dermal absorption . The oral LD50 for methoprene in rats is greater than 34,600 mg / kg , and in dogs is greater than 5000 mg / kg . It is slightly toxic by skin exposure , with reported dermal LD50 values of greater than 2000 to 3000 mg / kg in rabbits . Methoprene is not an eye or skin irritant , and it is not a skin sensitiser . The inhalation LC50 for methoprene in rats is greater than 210 mg / L . No overt signs of poisoning have been reported in incidents involving accidental human exposure to methoprene . Chronic toxicity : No methoprene-related effects were observed in 2-year feeding trials with rats given doses of 250 mg / kg / day , nor in mice given 30 mg / kg / day . Liver changes were observed in mice fed 50 to 250 mg / kg / day of methoprene during an 18-month study . Increased liver weights occurred in rats fed 250 mg / kg / day for 90 days , but not during a 24-month feeding study in which rats were fed 125 mg / kg / day . Reproductive effects : Experimental data indicate that no reproductive hazards are associated with methoprene . No methoprene-related effects were observed in three-generation reproduction studies in rats receiving dietary doses of 125 mg / kg / day . Teratogenic effects : There have been no teratogenic effects in animals dosed with methoprene ; teratogenic effects were not seen in rats at doses of about 25 mg / kg / day , or in rabbits at doses of about 15 mg / kg / day . Methoprene does not appear to be teratogenic . Mutagenic effects : Methoprene does not appear to be mutagenic . No methoprene-related mutagenic effects were observed in rats following a single dose of 2000 mg / kg . Carcinogenic effects : No tumors were seen in an 18-month feeding study with mice , or in a 24-month oncogenicity study with rats . These data suggest that methoprene is not carcinogenic . Organ toxicity : The target organ primarily affected by methoprene after long-term exposure is the liver . Fate in humans and animals : In mammals , methoprene is rapidly and completely broken down and excreted , mostly in the urine and feces . Some evidence suggests that methoprene metabolites are incorporated into natural body components . Methoprene is excreted unchanged in cattle faeces in amounts that are sufficient to kill some larvae that breed in dung NOTE : Substance has been shown to be mutagenic in at least one assay , or belongs to a family of chemicals producing damage or change to cellular DNA .
