Identification
Common NameFlumethrin
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionFlumethrin is an alpha-cyano-3-phenoxyphenyl pyrethroid insecticide used in the control of ectoparasites on cattle, sheep, goats, horses, and dogs. It is formulated as a 6% solution for use as a spray or dip and as a 1% solution for the pour-on treatment of cattle. In addition, flumethrin is marketed as strips for the diagnosis and control of varroatosis in bee hives. A pyrethroid is a synthetic chemical compound similar to the natural chemical pyrethrins produced by the flowers of pyrethrums (Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium and C. coccineum). Pyrethroids are common in commercial products such as household insecticides and insect repellents. In the concentrations used in such products, they are generally harmless to human beings but can harm sensitive individuals. They are usually broken apart by sunlight and the atmosphere in one or two days, and do not significantly affect groundwater quality except for being toxic to fish. Insects with certain mutations in their sodium channel gene may be resistant to pyrethroid insecticides. (5, 4, 6, 8)

Toxicity Profile
Route of ExposureInhalation (6) ; oral (6) ; dermal (6) ; eye contact (6).
Mechanism of ToxicityPyrethroids exert their effect by prolonging the open phase of the sodium channel gates when a nerve cell is excited. They appear to bind to the membrane lipid phase in the immediate vicinity of the sodium channel, thus modifying the channel kinetics. This blocks the closing of the sodium gates in the nerves, and thus prolongs the return of the membrane potential to its resting state. The repetitive (sensory, motor) neuronal discharge and a prolonged negative afterpotential produces effects quite similar to those produced by DDT, leading to hyperactivity of the nervous system which can result in paralysis and/or death. Other mechanisms of action of pyrethroids include antagonism of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-mediated inhibition, modulation of nicotinic cholinergic transmission, enhancement of noradrenaline release, and actions on calcium ions. (2, 6)
MetabolismThe highest concentration is found in the liver, but high concentrations were also found in the spleen, kidney, lung, adrenal cortex, cartilage, bone marrow, pineal gland, pituitary, and subcutaneous adipose tissue; the lowest concentrations are found in the central nervous system. Flumethrin is excreted in the urine or the feces as unchanged compound or the metabolite, 3-[2-chloro-2-(4-chlorophenyl)ethenyl]-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylic acid, flumethrin acid. 3-(4'-hydroxy-phenoxy)-4-fluorobenzoic acid and 3-phenoxy-4-fluorobenzoic acid can further be found in the urine as well as their glycine conjugates. The phenyl ring may be hydroxylated and, following ester bond hydrolysis, the cyano group is converted to SCN- and carbon dioxide and 3-phenoxybenzaldehyde is oxidized to the carboxylic acid. The resultant acids and phenols can then conjugate with glucuronic acid, sulfate, and/or amino acids. (8)
Toxicity ValuesLD50: > 100 mg/kg (Oral, Rat) (8) LD50: > 2000 mg/kg (Dermal, Rat) (8) LD50: ~3000 mg/kg (Inhalation, Rat) (8)
Lethal DoseNot Available
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Uses/SourcesPyrethroids are used as insecticides. (6)
Minimum Risk LevelNot Available
Health EffectsAt high doses, signs of poisoning attributable to flumethrin include profuse salivation and pulmonary edema, clonic seizures, opisthotonos (i.e., the spine is bent forward such that a supine body rests on its head and heels), coma, and death. At lower doses, commonly observed effects include paresthesia and erythema. (7)
SymptomsFollowing dermal exposure to flumethrin, feelings of numbness, itching, burning, stinging, tingling, or warmth may occur, that could last for a few hours. Dizziness, headache, nausea, muscle twitching, reduced energy, and changes in awareness can result from inhalation or ingestion of large amounts of flumethrin. Paralysis can occur after exposure. (6)
TreatmentFollowing oral exposure, the treatment is symptomatic and supportive and includes monitoring for the development of hypersensitivity reactions with respiratory distress. Provide adequate airway management when needed. Gastric decontamination is usually not required unless the pyrethrin product is combined with a hydrocarbon. Following inhalation exposure, move patient to fresh air. monitor for respiratory distress. If cough or difficulty breathing develops, evaluate for respiratory tract irritation, bronchitis, or pneumonitis. Administer oxygen and assist ventilation as required. Treat bronchospasm with inhaled beta2 agonist and oral or parenteral corticosteroids. In case of eye exposure, irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of room temperature water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling, lacrimation, or photophobia persist, the patient should be seen in a health care facility. If the contamination occurs through dermal exposure, remove contaminated clothing and wash exposed area thoroughly with soap and water. A physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists. Vitamin E topical application is highly effective in relieving parenthesis. (3)

Modulates channel gating kinetics. Causes negative shifts in the voltage dependence of activation of certain alpha sodium channels, but does not affect the voltage dependence of inactivation. Modulates the suceptibility of the sodium channel to inhibition by toxic peptides from spider, scorpion, wasp and sea anemone venom.

General Function:
Protein homodimerization activity
Specific Function:
Key regulator of striated muscle performance by acting as the major Ca(2+) ATPase responsible for the reuptake of cytosolic Ca(2+) into the sarcoplasmic reticulum. Catalyzes the hydrolysis of ATP coupled with the translocation of calcium from the cytosol to the sarcoplasmic reticulum lumen. Contributes to calcium sequestration involved in muscular excitation/contraction.
