**** SECTION 11 - TOXICOLOGICAL INFORMATION ****
RTECS#:
CAS# 7758-99-8: GL8900000
LD50/LC50:
CAS# 7758-99-8: Oral, rat: LD50 = 300 mg/kg.
Carcinogenicity:
COPPER(II) SULFATE PENTAHYDRATE -
Not listed by ACGIH, IARC, NIOSH, NTP, or OSHA.
Epidemiology:
No information available.
Teratogenicity:
Anhydrous: see Rtecs# GL8800000:
ivn-mouse TDLo=3200 ug/kg. Fertility: post-implantation mortality,
ivn-mouse TDLo=3200 ug/kg. Specific Developmental Abnormalities: body
wall, ivn-hamster TDLo=2130 ug/kg; cardiovascular and central nervous
system, ivn-mouse TDLo=3200 ug/kg.
Reproductive Effects:
Anhydrous: see Rtecs# GL8800000:

TDLo=12768 ug/kg.
Neurotoxicity:
No information available.
Mutagenicity:
See Rtecs# GL8900000.
Other Studies:
None.
**** SECTION 12 - ECOLOGICAL INFORMATION ****
Ecotoxicity:
Rainbow trout (fresh water) TLm=3.8 ppm/24H
LC50=0.14 ppm/48H
goldfish, eel 0.1-2.5 mg/l
Environmental Fate:
If released to soil, copper sulfate may leach to groundwater, be
partly oxidized, or bind to humic materials, clay, or hydrous of
iron and manganese. In water, it will bind to carbonates as well as
humic materials, clay and hydrous oxides of iron and manganese.
Copper is accumulated by plants and animals, but it does not appear
to biomagnify from plants to animals. This lack of biomagnification
appears common with heavy metals. In air, copper aerosols (in
general) have a residence time of 2 to 10 days in an unpolluted
atmosphere and 0.1 to > 4 days in polluted, urban areas.
Physical/Chemical:
No information available.
Other:
None.
