Description

Aldicarb is a carbamate ester pesticide (Temik). It is a white crystalline solid, moderately soluble in water, and susceptible to oxidation and hydrolytic reactions. Exposure of the general population occurs mainly through food. The ingestion of contaminated food has led to poisoning incidents from aldicarb and its toxic metabolites (sulfoxide and sulfone). Due to its high acute toxicity, both inhalation and skin contact under occupational exposure conditions may be dangerous for workers if preventive measures are inadequate. It is efficiently absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and, to a lesser extent, through the skin, and could also be readily absorbed by the respiratory tract if dust were present. The excretion is rapid and primarily via the urine. Aldicarb does not accumulate in the body as a result of long-term exposure. Non-fatal poisoning in man is rapidly reversible and recovery is aided by the administration of atropine. There is no substantial evidence to indicate that aldicarb is teratogenic, mutagenic, carcinogenic, or immunotoxic. Source: National Library of Medicine, Toxnet, Toxnet: Aldicarb
