USES/FORMS/SOURCES

USES

Aldrin is a chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticide of the cyclodiene type; it is no longer manufactured in the USA, but some is imported solely for use in termite control by subsurface soil injection (Sittig, 1985; Budavari, 1989).

FORMS

Chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticide compounds are very toxic because they are LIPHOPHILIC -- high solubility in fats makes the NERVOUS SYSTEM the major target organ (EOSH, 1983). Aldrin is rapidly metabolized to DIELDRIN , an experimental animal carcinogen (Proctor et al, 1988).

-CLINICAL EFFECTS

GENERAL CLINICAL EFFECTS

Aldrin is a chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticide in the cyclodiene family which is no longer manufactured in the US. This review is based on the properties of chlorinated hydrocarbon insecticides in general, with effects specific to aldrin identified. The primary target of action is the central nervous system. CNS excitation, myoclonic jerking, and recurrent convulsions may occur. Respiratory depression may occur concurrently with coma and is usually the immediate cause of death.

POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 151 (ERG, 2004)

Highly toxic, may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through skin.
Avoid any skin contact.
Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed.
Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.
Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.

POTENTIAL HEALTH HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 131 (ERG, 2004)

TOXIC; may be fatal if inhaled, ingested or absorbed through skin.
Inhalation or contact with some of these materials will irritate or burn skin and eyes.
Fire will produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases.
Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation.
Runoff from fire control or dilution water may cause pollution.

ACUTE CLINICAL EFFECTS

Aldrin can be absorbed by inhalation, ingestion, and dermal contact (Clayton & Clayton, 1981; AAR, 1987; Sax & Lewis, 1989). It is a respiratory depressant, and a CNS excitant and convulsant. Seizures may occur as an early sign, and may recur over several days following acute exposure. Clonic jerking movements have been reported with aldrin poisoning. Metabolic acidosis may result (Clinical Notes, 1984; (EPA, 1985; Proctor et al, 1988; Morgan, 1989).

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, elevated serum liver enzymes, and hepatic necrosis may occur (Clayton & Clayton, 1981; Proctor et al, 1988; HSDB , 1990). Some skin irritation may result from extensive contact with the organochlorines or with the petroleum distillates in which they are dissolved. Dermatitis is unusual with this compound; however, erythematobullous dermatitis has been reported. Generally, only minor erythema is caused by skin contact with pure aldrin. Commercial formulations may contain more irritating components (Clayton & Clayton, 1981; Proctor et al, 1988).

CHRONIC CLINICAL EFFECTS

The neurologic effects seen with chronic exposure to aldrin are similar to those seen with acute exposure. Aldrin may produce CNS excitement, EEG abnormalities, and tonic-clonic seizures. No permanent disabilities were found in workers who had experienced aldrin-induced seizures (Hoogendam et al, 1962; Kazantzis et al, 1964; Hoogendam et al, 1965; Gupta, 1975; Baselt & Cravey, 1989).

Hepatomegaly and fatty degenerative changes in the kidneys were seen in experimental animals. Anorexia and weight loss may occur (Fitzhugh et al, 1964; Clayton & Clayton, 1981). In experimental animals, aldrin affected the formation of antibodies against E. coli (HSDB , 1990).

FIRST AID

INHALATION EXPOSURE

INHALATION: 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 an inhaled beta2-adrenergic agonist. Consider systemic corticosteroids in patients with significant bronchospasm.
DECONTAMINATION: Remove contaminated clothing and jewelry and place them in plastic bags. Wash exposed areas with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes with gentle sponging to avoid skin breakdown. A physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists (Burgess et al, 1999).
First responders should wear protective clothing to prevent secondary contamination. Be prepared to collect any vomitus or excreta in a manner to prevent further contamination; bag and treat as hazardous waste.
All persons with significant inhalation exposure should be admitted to a hospital and be observed and treated under controlled conditions until all acute clinical signs and symptoms have resolved.
SEIZURES: Administer a benzodiazepine; DIAZEPAM (ADULT: 5 to 10 mg IV initially; repeat every 5 to 20 minutes as needed. CHILD: 0.1 to 0.5 mg/kg IV over 2 to 5 minutes; up to a maximum of 10 mg/dose. May repeat dose every 5 to 10 minutes as needed) or LORAZEPAM (ADULT: 2 to 4 mg IV initially; repeat every 5 to 10 minutes as needed, if seizures persist. CHILD: 0.05 to 0.1 mg/kg IV over 2 to 5 minutes, up to a maximum of 4 mg/dose; may repeat in 5 to 15 minutes as needed, if seizures continue).

Consider phenobarbital or propofol if seizures recur after diazepam 30 mg (adults) or 10 mg (children greater than 5 years).
Monitor for hypotension, dysrhythmias, respiratory depression, and need for endotracheal intubation. Evaluate for hypoglycemia, electrolyte disturbances, and hypoxia.

REFRACTORY SEIZURES: Consider continuous infusion of midazolam, propofol, and/or pentobarbital. Hyperthermia, lactic acidosis and muscle destruction may necessitate use of neuromuscular blocking agents with continuous EEG monitoring.
Do not give oils by mouth.
Do not administer adrenergic amines, which may further increase myocardial irritability and produce refractory ventricular arrhythmias.

DERMAL EXPOSURE

DECONTAMINATION: Remove contaminated clothing and jewelry and place them in plastic bags. Wash exposed areas with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes with gentle sponging to avoid skin breakdown. A physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists (Burgess et al, 1999).
First responders should wear protective clothing to prevent secondary contamination. Be prepared to collect any vomitus or excreta in a manner to prevent further contamination; bag and treat as hazardous waste.
All persons with significant dermal exposure should be admitted to a hospital and be observed and treated under controlled conditions until all acute clinical signs and symptoms have resolved.
SEIZURES: Administer a benzodiazepine; DIAZEPAM (ADULT: 5 to 10 mg IV initially; repeat every 5 to 20 minutes as needed. CHILD: 0.1 to 0.5 mg/kg IV over 2 to 5 minutes; up to a maximum of 10 mg/dose. May repeat dose every 5 to 10 minutes as needed) or LORAZEPAM (ADULT: 2 to 4 mg IV initially; repeat every 5 to 10 minutes as needed, if seizures persist. CHILD: 0.05 to 0.1 mg/kg IV over 2 to 5 minutes, up to a maximum of 4 mg/dose; may repeat in 5 to 15 minutes as needed, if seizures continue).

Consider phenobarbital or propofol if seizures recur after diazepam 30 mg (adults) or 10 mg (children greater than 5 years).
Monitor for hypotension, dysrhythmias, respiratory depression, and need for endotracheal intubation. Evaluate for hypoglycemia, electrolyte disturbances, and hypoxia.

REFRACTORY SEIZURES: Consider continuous infusion of midazolam, propofol, and/or pentobarbital. Hyperthermia, lactic acidosis and muscle destruction may necessitate use of neuromuscular blocking agents with continuous EEG monitoring.
Do not give oils by mouth.
Do not administer adrenergic amines, which may further increase myocardial irritability and produce refractory ventricular arrhythmias.

EYE EXPOSURE

DECONTAMINATION: Remove contact lenses and irrigate exposed eyes with copious amounts of room temperature 0.9% saline or water for at least 15 minutes. If irritation, pain, swelling, lacrimation, or photophobia persist after 15 minutes of irrigation, the patient should be seen in a healthcare facility.
DECONTAMINATION: Remove contaminated clothing and jewelry and place them in plastic bags. Wash exposed areas with soap and water for 10 to 15 minutes with gentle sponging to avoid skin breakdown. A physician may need to examine the area if irritation or pain persists (Burgess et al, 1999).
Carefully observe patient for development of clinical signs and symptoms, and administer treatment as described in DERMAL EXPOSURE where appropriate.
All persons with significant exposure should be admitted to a hospital and be observed and treated under controlled conditions until all acute clinical signs and symptoms have resolved.

ORAL EXPOSURE

Do NOT induce emesis.
GASTRIC LAVAGE: Consider after ingestion of a potentially life-threatening amount of poison if it can be performed soon after ingestion (generally within 1 hour). Protect airway by placement in the head down left lateral decubitus position or by endotracheal intubation. Control any seizures first.

CONTRAINDICATIONS: Loss of airway protective reflexes or decreased level of consciousness in unintubated patients; following ingestion of corrosives; hydrocarbons (high aspiration potential); patients at risk of hemorrhage or gastrointestinal perforation; and trivial or non-toxic ingestion.

ACTIVATED CHARCOAL: Administer charcoal as a slurry (240 mL water/30 g charcoal). Usual dose: 25 to 100 g in adults/adolescents, 25 to 50 g in children (1 to 12 years), and 1 g/kg in infants less than 1 year old.

-RANGE OF TOXICITY

MINIMUM LETHAL EXPOSURE

ADULT

The fatal dose for man has been estimated at 3 to 7 grams (Baselt, 1988), or between 7 drops or one ounce for a 150 pound adult human (EPA, 1985).

ANIMAL DATA

FELINE - Exposure over a few days to 76 parts per million aldrin in soil (5.2 parts per million dieldrin) was sufficient to kill 6-week-old kittens (Klemmer et al, 1977).
OTHER - For one- to two-week old calves, the minimum toxic oral dose was 5.0 mg/kg and for cattle and sheep it was 25 mg/kg (HSDB , 1997).

MAXIMUM TOLERATED EXPOSURE

ROUTE OF EXPOSURE

ORAL -

Acute oral exposures exceeding 10 milligrams/kilogram cause illness (Clayton & Clayton, 1981).
Severe symptoms may result from ingestion or percutaneous absorption of 1 to 3 grams, especially in the presence of liver disease (Budavari, 1996).

DERMAL -

Solutions containing 10% or more aldrin are rapidly absorbed by the skin. Formulations containing less than 10% may be fatal by skin contact, inhalation or swallowing (NFPA, 1986).

OCCUPATIONAL -

Occupational exposure to aldrin at 1 to 2.6 milligrams/cubic meter caused no ill effects (Clayton & Clayton, 1981).

ANIMAL DATA

Rats tolerated dietary levels as high as 20 parts per million for 6 weeks with no apparent effects (HSDB , 1997).
Based on a rat chronic feeding study, a lowest effect level (LEL) of 0.025 mg/kg/day has been calculated (EPA, 1988).

CASE REPORTS

Toxic doses of organochlorines vary enormously with route and rate of absorption. Based on reports of poisonings and laboratory studies, aldrin would be considered in the group of highest toxicity of the organochlorines.

Available epidemiologic studies do not confirm an increased risk of cancer in exposed humans. Available evidence does not suggest that the agent is likely to cause cancer in humans except under uncommon or unlikely routes or levels of exposure.
IFV: Inhalable fraction and vapor.
Skin: This refers to the potential significant contribution to the overall exposure by the cutaneous route, including mucous membranes and the eyes, either by contact with vapors or, of likely greater significance, by direct skin contact with the substance. It should be noted that although some materials are capable of causing irritation, dermatitis, and sensitization in workers, these properties are not considered relevant when assigning a skin notation. Rather, data from acute dermal studies and repeated dose dermal studies in animals or humans, along with the ability of the chemical to be absorbed, are integrated in the decision-making toward assignment of the skin designation. Use of the skin designation provides an alert that air sampling would not be sufficient by itself in quantifying exposure from the substance and that measures to prevent significant cutaneous absorption may be warranted. Please see "Definitions and Notations" (in TLV booklet) for full definition.

-PHYSICAL HAZARDS

FIRE HAZARD

SUMMARY

Editor's Note: Information from more than one emergency response guide is associated with this material.
POTENTIAL FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 151 (ERG, 2004)
- Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes.
- Containers may explode when heated.
- Runoff may pollute waterways.
POTENTIAL FIRE OR EXPLOSION HAZARDS - EMERGENCY RESPONSE GUIDEBOOK, GUIDE 131 (ERG, 2004)
- HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames.
- Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air.
- Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back.
- Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks).
- Vapor explosion and poison hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers.
- Those substances designated with a "P" may polymerize explosively when heated or involved in a fire.
- Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard.
- Containers may explode when heated.
- Many liquids are lighter than water.
Aldrin in a dry powder form will not burn, but if heated to decomposition it emits highly toxic fumes of hydrogen chloride and chlorinated breakdown products (NFPA, 1986; Sax & Lewis, 1989).
Commercial solutions of aldrin may contain flammable or combustible liquids. Flash points are approximately 150 degrees F or higher (NFPA, 1986).

-ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD MANAGEMENT

POLLUTION HAZARD

Aldrin's former use as a pesticide has resulted in its direct releases to the environment. It is an insecticide formerly used against termites and soil-dwelling pests such as ants, wireworms, or whitegrubs. The manufacture and use of aldrin has been discontinued in the United States (HSDB, 2003).

ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND KINETICS

OTHER

OTHER
- Under most environmental conditions, aldrin is gradually converted to dieldrin (HSDB , 1990).
- Aldrin mixed with river water dropped to 20% of its original concentration in 8 weeks (OHM/TADS , 1990).
- Aldrin residues in soil and plants will volatilize from soil surfaces or be slowly transformed to dieldrin in soil (HSDB , 1990).
- Reports on leaching and field studies suggest that aldrin/dieldrin would be unlikely to leach to underground aquifers (EPA, 1988). However, detection of aldrin in New Jersey ground water (26% positive detections from 1076 samples; 1.2 ppb maximum) indicates that leaching does occur (HSDB , 1990).
- Vapor phase aldrin residues in the atmosphere are expected to react with photochemically generated hydroxyl radicals with an estimated half-life of 35.46 minutes (HSDB , 1990).

ENVIRONMENTAL TOXICITY

Aquatic Toxicity (CHRIS , 1990; HSDB , 1990):

Harmful to aquatic life in very low concentrations (CHRIS , 1990).

Photodieldrin, a photochemical isomer of dieldrin or aldrin, was found to be several times more toxic than the parent compound to flies, mosquitoes, and fresh water animals, and is more persistent in soil, detectable 10 years after initial treatment (Suzuki et al, 1974).

This study reports the recovery of a sparrowhawk population in eastern England after a 20-year absence. The new population, starting in 1979, was correlated with a reduction contamination by organochlorine pesticide residues, namely HEOD (derived from aldrin and dieldrin) and DDE (derived from DDT). The number of nests in 1979 was 3 and had increased to 84 by 1989 (Newton & Wyllie, 1992).

CATTLE: The sudden death of 10 calves and bizarre neurologic dysfunction in 8 addition calves prompted a toxicological analysis. Aldrin had contaminated the animal feed; 22.4 grams of aldrin were present per gram of digesta in one calf.

The half-life for removal of the aldrin from animal fat ranged from 53 to 231 days. The herd was monitored for 18 months for aldrin content in animal fat before the entire herd was clear of the contaminant (Casteel et al, 1993).
