| Körperbelastung | 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol was detected in 8 of 10 human urine samples at 25-200 ppb with an average of 88 ppb(1). Workers in a Finnish sawmill had detectable urinary levels of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol of 1-11.8 umols/L(2). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol was detected at 1.1, 0.15 and 0.3 ug/g creatinine in the urine of plant, laboratory and administration workers, respectively, of the only hazardous waste incineration plant in Spain in 1999, located in Constanti(3). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol was not detected (detection limit 0.10 ug/L) in the amniotic fluid collected from 100 pregnant women from the San Joaquin Valley, CA(4). |
| Treatment | If the compound has been ingested, rapid gastric lavage should be performed using 5% sodium bicarbonate. For skin contact, the skin should be washed with soap and water. If the compound has entered the eyes, they should be washed with large quantities of isotonic saline or water. In serious cases, atropine and/or pralidoxime should be administered. Anti-cholinergic drugs work to counteract the effects of excess acetylcholine and reactivate AChE. Atropine can be used as an antidote in conjunction with pralidoxime or other pyridinium oximes (such as trimedoxime or obidoxime), though the use of '-oximes' has been found to be of no benefit, or possibly harmful, in at least two meta-analyses. Atropine is a muscarinic antagonist, and thus blocks the action of acetylcholine peripherally. |

| Gesundheitliche Auswirkungen | Acute exposure to cholinesterase inhibitors can cause a cholinergic crisis characterized by severe nausea/vomiting, salivation, sweating, bradycardia, hypotension, collapse, and convulsions. Increasing muscle weakness is a possibility and may result in death if respiratory muscles are involved. Accumulation of ACh at motor nerves causes overstimulation of nicotinic expression at the neuromuscular junction. When this occurs symptoms such as muscle weakness, fatigue, muscle cramps, fasciculation, and paralysis can be seen. When there is an accumulation of ACh at autonomic ganglia this causes overstimulation of nicotinic expression in the sympathetic system. Symptoms associated with this are hypertension, and hypoglycemia. Overstimulation of nicotinic acetylcholine receptors in the central nervous system, due to accumulation of ACh, results in anxiety, headache, convulsions, ataxia, depression of respiration and circulation, tremor, general weakness, and potentially coma. When there is expression of muscarinic overstimulation due to excess acetylcholine at muscarinic acetylcholine receptors symptoms of visual disturbances, tightness in chest, wheezing due to bronchoconstriction, increased bronchial secretions, increased salivation, lacrimation, sweating, peristalsis, and urination can occur. Certain reproductive effects in fertility, growth, and development for males and females have been linked specifically to organophosphate pesticide exposure. Most of the research on reproductive effects has been conducted on farmers working with pesticides and insecticdes in rural areas. In females menstrual cycle disturbances, longer pregnancies, spontaneous abortions, stillbirths, and some developmental effects in offspring have been linked to organophosphate pesticide exposure. Prenatal exposure has been linked to impaired fetal growth and development. Neurotoxic effects have also been linked to poisoning with OP pesticides causing four neurotoxic effects in humans: cholinergic syndrome, intermediate syndrome, organophosphate-induced delayed polyneuropathy (OPIDP), and chronic organophosphate-induced neuropsychiatric disorder (COPIND). These syndromes result after acute and chronic exposure to OP pesticides. |

| Umweltverhalten | TERRESTRIAL FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), Koc values of 150-2200(2-4), indicate that 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is expected to have moderate to slight mobility in soil(SRC). The pKa of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is 6.23(5), indicating that this compound will exist partially in the anion form in the environment and anions generally do not adsorb more strongly to soils containing organic carbon and clay than their neutral counterparts(6). Volatilization of the anion form of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol from moist soil surfaces is not expected because anions do not volatilize(SRC). Volatilization of neutral 2,4,6-trichlorophenol from moist soil surfaces is expected to be an important fate process(SRC) given an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.2X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), based upon its vapor pressure, 0.008 mm Hg(7), and water solubility, 500 mg/L(8). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is not expected to volatilize from dry soil surfaces(SRC) based upon its vapor pressure(7). This compound is expected to biodegrade in soils with aerobic and anaerobic biodegradation half-lives in soils of about 5 and 20 days, respectively(9).AQUATIC FATE: Based on a classification scheme(1), a Koc values of 150-2200(2-4), indicate that 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is expected to adsorb to suspended solids and sediment(SRC). A pKa of 6.23(5) indicates 2,4,6-trichlorophenol will exist partially in the anion form at pH values of 5 to 9 and, therefore, volatilization of the anion form from water surfaces is not expected to be an important fate process(SRC). Volatilization of the neutral form from water surfaces is expected(6) based upon an estimated Henry's Law constant of 4.2X10-6 atm-cu m/mole(SRC), derived from its vapor pressure, 0.008 mm Hg(7), and water solubility, 500 mg/L(8). Using this Henry's Law constant and an estimation method(6), volatilization half-lives for the neutral form from a model river and model lake are 20 and 150 days, respectively(SRC). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is expected to undergo photolysis in surface waters based on an aqueous photodegradation half-life of 2.1 hours when irradiated with light at environmentally relevant wavelengths(9). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyze under environmental conditions(6). According to a classification scheme(10), BCFs of 87-676(11-13) in fish, suggest bioconcentration in aquatic organisms is moderate to high(SRC). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol biodegraded 100% in 8-14 days in filtered and unfiltered water(14).ATMOSPHERIC FATE: According to a model of gas/particle partitioning of semivolatile organic compounds in the atmosphere(1), 2,4,6-trichlorophenol, which has a vapor pressure of 0.008 mm Hg at 25 °C(2), is expected to exist solely as a vapor in the ambient atmosphere. Vapor-phase 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is degraded in the atmosphere by reaction with photochemically-produced hydroxyl radicals(SRC)the half-life for this reaction in air is estimated to be 24 days(SRC), calculated from its rate constant of 6.1X10-13 cu cm/molecule-sec at 25 °C(SRC) that was derived using a structure estimation method(3). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol contains chromophores that absorb at wavelengths >290 nm(4) and, therefore, may be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight(SRC). Coated on silica gels and irradiated with light wavelengths >290 nm for 17 hours, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol was degraded 65.8%(5). |

| Toxizitätsübersicht | IDENTIFICATION AND USE: 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol (2,4,6 -TCP) is a colorless needle or yellow solid that has a strong phenolic odor. This germicidal agent was used as a fungicide, bactericide, wood preservative, biocide, and intermediate in production of higher chlorinated phenols. It is not registered for current use in the U.S., but approved pesticide uses may change periodically and so federal, state and local authorities must be consulted for currently approved uses. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: Trichlorophenols produce redness and edema on skin contact and on prolonged exposure mild to moderate chemical burns of skin of man. In eye they induce conjunctival irritation and sometimes corneal injury and iritis. Dusts are irritating to nose and pharynx and systemic effects presumably resemble phenol. Trichlorophenols can have an irritating effect on the lung, and it cannot be excluded that long-term exposure may produce pulmonary fibrosis. Children with low levels (<3.58 ug/g) and high levels (=3.58 ug/g) of urinary 2,4,6-TCP had a higher risk of parent-reported ADHD compared to children with levels below the limit of detection after adjusting for covariates. It was concluded that exposure to TCP may increase the risk of behavioral impairment in children. The potential neurotoxicity of these chemicals should be considered in public health efforts to reduce environmental exposures/contamination, especially in countries where organochlorine pesticides are still commonly used. 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen according to NTP. ANIMAL STUDIES: In rats lethal doses of chlorophenols produce restlessness, increased rate of respiration, rapidly developing motor weakness, tremors, clonic convulsions, dyspnea, and coma. 2,4,6-TCP produces these signs but decreased activity and motor weakness do not appear quite so promptly. 2,4,6-TCP was not hepatotoxic in rats as assessed by measurement of hepatic glucose-6-phosphatase and serum sorbitol dehydrogenase. Carcinogenesis bioassays were conducted by giving 2,4,6-TCP in feed to groups of male and female rats and male mice for two years. Adverse effects at two years were leukocytosis and monocytosis of peripheral blood and hyperplasia of bone marrow in both sexes of rats. In mice, liver toxicity, including individual liver cell abnormalities, focal areas of cellular alteration, and focal and nodular areas of hyperplasia were commonly present. TCP caused leukemias/lymphomas in male rats, and possibly in female rats and female mice as well, and induced liver tumors in male and female mice. 2,4,6-TCP, a non-mutagen to Salmonella, was negative in tests for chromosome breakage in vitro, but did produce numerical chromosome changes and micronuclei in V79 cells. 2,4,6-TCP induces structural chromosome aberrations in CHO cells and in V79 cells using a 3-hr treatment and 20-hr sampling time (17-hr recovery). Positive results were obtained when a recovery time of 4-12 hr was allowed after the 24-hr treatment with 2,4,6-TCP, and when 2,4,6-TCP was tested with S9. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: 2,4,6-TCP was applied at single doses of into compartments of a natural experimental pond to study the effect on biota. Changes seen included a rapid decline of daphnia concentration to zero after phytoplankton, a continuous increase of contamination indicators like flagellates and microorganisms, and a significant decrease in O2 concentration as a secondary effect of the changed balance between autotrophic and heterotrophic populations.2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is a cholinesterase or acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor. A cholinesterase inhibitor (or 'anticholinesterase') suppresses the action of acetylcholinesterase. Because of its essential function, chemicals that interfere with the action of acetylcholinesterase are potent neurotoxins, causing excessive salivation and eye-watering in low doses, followed by muscle spasms and ultimately death. Nerve gases and many substances used in insecticides have been shown to act by binding a serine in the active site of acetylcholine esterase, inhibiting the enzyme completely. Acetylcholine esterase breaks down the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which is released at nerve and muscle junctions, in order to allow the muscle or organ to relax. The result of acetylcholine esterase inhibition is that acetylcholine builds up and continues to act so that any nerve impulses are continually transmitted and muscle contractions do not stop. Among the most common acetylcholinesterase inhibitors are phosphorus-based compounds, which are designed to bind to the active site of the enzyme. The structural requirements are a phosphorus atom bearing two lipophilic groups, a leaving group (such as a halide or thiocyanate), and a terminal oxygen. |
| Average Daily Intake | The average daily intake of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol is 50 ug/day in Finland(1). |
| Ökotoxizitätsauszüge | /AQUATIC SPECIES/ 2,4,6-trichlorophenol was applied at single doses of 5 mg/L in duplicates into compartments of a natural experimental pond to study the effect on biota. Changes seen included a rapid decline of Daphnia concentration to zero after phytoplankton, a continuous increase of contamination indicators like flagellates and microorganisms, and a significant decrease in O2 concentration as a secondary effect of the changed balance between autotrophic and heterotrophic populations./AQUATIC SPECIES/ Rainbow trout were exposed for 4 or 8 days to various types of toxicants, each applied to the test water at a high sublethal concentration. The activity of liver uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase was assayed from the submitochondrial fraction using p-nitrophenol as an aglycone. Activity of uridine diphosphate-glucuronosyltransferase was inhibited by 2,4,6-trichlorophenol./AQUATIC SPECIES/ Correlation was found between acute (24 hr) toxicity (median inhibitory concn IC50) to Daphnia magna of 17 chlorophenols /including 2,4,6-trichlorophenol/ and their octanol water partition coefficients, dissociation constants, melting points, the perimeter of the efficient section of the molecule or molecular connectivity index of the first order. Phenols with chlorine in para-position were more toxic than those with chlorine in ortho-position. |
| Plant Concentrations | 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol was detected in 4 of 23 plankton samples from Finnish lake-river system at an average of 2.45 ppb(1). 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol was not detected (detection limit 0.2 ng/g cork) in cork samples collected Jun 2008 from Extremadura, Castile-La Mancha and Catalonia, Spain and Alentejo, Portugal(2).2,4,6-Trichlorophenol was detected in pine needle wax from 10-20 year old trees near pollution sourcessamples were collected from three areas of Finland in 1991-1996(1).[Table#4708] |
| Luftstandards | This action promulgates standards of performance for equipment leaks of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in the Synthetic Organic Chemical Manufacturing Industry (SOCMI). The intended effect of these standards is to require all newly constructed, modified, and reconstructed SOCMI process units to use the best demonstrated system of continuous emission reduction for equipment leaks of VOC, considering costs, non air quality health and environmental impact and energy requirements. Chlorophenols are produced, as an intermediate or final product, by process units covered under this subpart. /Chlorophenols/Listed as a hazardous air pollutant (HAP) generally known or suspected to cause serious health problems. The Clean Air Act, as amended in 1990, directs EPA to set standards requiring major sources to sharply reduce routine emissions of toxic pollutants. EPA is required to establish and phase in specific performance based standards for all air emission sources that emit one or more of the listed pollutants. 2,4,6-Trichlorophenol is included on this list. |
