SRP: At the time of review, criteria for land treatment or burial (sanitary landfill) disposal practices are subject to significant revision. Prior to implementing land disposal of waste residue (including waste sludge), consult with environmental regulatory agencies for guidance on acceptable disposal practices.

Biomedical Effects and Toxicity
【Biomedical Effects and Toxicity】
/In animals/ after three days, elimination was almost complete (>99%). Tebuconazole was excreted with the urine and the feces.
(Phenyl-U-14C)-/tebuconazole/ (specific activity: 84.4 mCi/mg; radiochemical purity:> 99%) was administered to 5 rats/sex/group at single doses of 2 or 20 mg/kg or after repeated dosing of 2 mg/kg with non-radiolabeled test material for 14 days, a single dose of labeled material at 2 mg/kg. Radiolabeled material was assayed in the plasma, urine, and feces of all groups and in the bile and expired CO2 of one group each. Maximum relative plasma concentrations ranged from 0.11 to 0.20 and were achieved 0.33 to 1.7 hours after administration of the test material. After 72 hours, % excreted ranged from 91 to 98%. A difference in sex-related excretion of the test material was noted with males having a urine/feces ratio of 16/78 in contrast to the females which excreted at a ratio of 30/62. Biliary excretion was only measured in males. Ninety percent of the radiolabel was recovered in the bile after a single pass through the liver. Only 0.03% of the radiolabel was recovered in the expired air. Residual label in the tissues (excluding the gastrointestinal tract) ranged from 0.21 to 0.67% of the administered dose after 72 hours.
(Phenyl-U-14C)-/tebuconazole/ (specific activity: 84.4 mCi/mg; radiochemical purity: > 99%) was administered to 5 rats/sex/group at single doses of 2 or 20 mg/kg or after repeated dosing of 2 mg/kg with non-radiolabeled test material for 14 days, a single dose of labelled material at 2 mg/kg. (Triazole-3,5-14C)-/tebuconazole/ (specific activity: 56.5 mCi/mg; radiochemical purity-98.4%) was administered to 5 rats/sex at a single dose of 20 mg/kg. Radiolabeled material was assayed in the urine, and feces of all groups for up to 72 hours. The chemical structures of specific radiolabeled metabolites were identified. Females showed a higher renal elimination rate than males (26 to 35% vs. 15 to 18%, respectively). Conversely, males exhibited a higher portion of excreted radioactivity in the feces (77 to 80% vs. 60 to 67%, respectively).
After oral administration of tebuconazole to rats, 65-80% of the dose was eliminated by the biliary and fecal route, whereas elimination in urine amounted to about 16-35%. Males had a greater biliary and fecal elimination than females. Biotransformation proceeded by oxidation reactions, resulting in hydroxy, carboxy, triol and ketoacid metabolites and conjugates as well as triazole.
Groups of rats were treated dermally with doses of 0.01, 0.1, 1 or 10 mg/rat of 14C-tebuconazole in ethanol, corresponding to actual doses of 0.604, 5.86, 52.4 or 547 ug/sq m. Radioactivity was measured in the urine, feces, blood and carcass and at the application site 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 and 24 hr after treatment to provide an estimate of skin absorption. At doses up to 52.4 ug/sq m, about 60% of the applied dose was absorbed within 24 hr; at the highest dose, about 12% was absorbed through the skin. Most of the dose was absorbed within the first few hours of application.
The permeability of human and rat skin in vitro to a series of 25% w/w EC formulations of tebuconazole was determined using 14C-tebuconazole and two reference compounds, (4-14C)-hydrocortisone and (4-14C)-testosterone. Within 24 h, up to 37% of a dose of 1.25 g/L tebuconazole in water had permeated human skin,as compared with about 22% of testosterone and up to 5% of hydrocortisone. In the rat, permeation by tebuconazole was lower than that by testosterone but higher than that by hydrocortisone.
Environmental Fate and Exposure Potential
【Environmental Fate/Exposure Summary】
TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), Koc values ranging from 470 to 6,000(2-4), indicate that tebuconazole is expected to have moderate to no mobility in soil(SRC). Volatilization of tebuconazole from moist soil is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law of 1.4X10-10 atm-cu m/mole derived from its vapor pressure 1.3X10-8 mm Hg(5), and water solubility, 36 mg/L(5). Tebuconazole is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure. Biodegradation data were not available (SRC, 2006).
AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), Koc values ranging from 470-6000(2-4), indicate that tebuconazole is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). Volatilization from water surfaces is not expected(5) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 1.4X10-10 atm-cu m/mole derived from its vapor pressure, 1.3X10-8 mm Hg(6), and water solubility, 36 mg/L(6). According to a classification scheme(7), an estimated BCF of 140(SRC), from its log Kow of 3.7(6) and a regression-derived equation(8) suggests the potential for bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is high(SRC). Biodegradation data were not available(SRC, 2006).
ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), tebuconazole, which has a vapor pressure of 1.3x10-8 mm Hg at 20 deg C(2) is expected to exist solely in the particulate phase in the ambient atmosphere. Particulate-phase tebuconazole may be removed from the air by wet or dry deposition(SRC). Tebuconazole does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(2).
