Acute Toxicity Assessment of Triticonazole on Coturnix coturnix japonica

Focused on the acute oral toxicity and feeding toxicity of triticonazole for bird,the research would provide data support for its environmental risk.An indoor simulation method was adopted to study the acute oral toxicity and feeding toxicity for Coturnix coturnix japonica and evaluate the results of its toxicity.When the testing concentration of oral toxicity was set to 1 000 mg ai /kgweight,dead bird and other dead symptoms were not found in the test cycle for 7 days;When the testing concentration of feeding toxicity was set to 1 000 mg ai /kgfeeding,the experimental group and the control group had no significant difference in food taking volume,dead bird and other poisonous symptoms had not found in the test cycle for 8 days.For Coturnix coturnix japonica,the LD 50 of quail acute oral toxicity of triticonazole was 1 000 mg /kgweightand LD 50 of acute toxicity feeding was 1 000 mgai /kgfeeding,in accordance with the criterion for chemical pesticide environmental safety assessment.The acute toxicity of triticonazole to bird was low and it was a relatively safe pesticide.
