Toxicology
Oral:Acute oral LD50 for rats 757 mg/kg, mice 500 mg/kg. Percutaneous:Acute percutaneous LD50 for rats >1000 mg/kg.

Environmental Profile
Ecotoxicology:
Bees:Not toxic to bees.Birds:Acute oral LD50 for chickens 500 mg/kg. Fish:LC50 (24 h) for harlequin fish 41 mg/l.
Environmental fate:
Animals:In rats, following oral administration, there is rapid metabolism and 70% elimination in the urine within 24 hours.Soil:In soil, chlorthiamid is converted to dichlobenil, which then gradually undergoes microbial degradation to 2,6-dichlorobenzamide and 2,6-dichlorobenzoic acid. Converted to dichlobenil in soil, DT50 for loss from soil.
