Antimicrobial substance produced by the growth of certain strains of Streptomyces
diastochromogenes. Macrolide antibiotic. Potent inhibitor of oxidative phosphorylation.
"macrolide antibiotic"
Although ingestion is not thought to produce harmful effects, the material may still be damaging to the health of the individual following ingestion, especially where pre- existing organ (e.g. liver, kidney) damage is evident. Present definitions of harmful or toxic substances are generally based on doses producing mortality (death) rather than those producing morbidity (disease, ill-health). Gastrointestinal tract discomfort may produce nausea and vomiting. In an occupational setting however, ingestion of insignificant quantities is not thought to be cause for concern. Macrolides comprise a large group of antibiotics derived from Streptomyces spp. having in common a macrocyclic lactone ring to which one or more sugars are attached. They are all weak bases. The most common side effect produced by the family of macrolide antibiotics is gastrointestinal discomfort. Supra-infections may occur although these are rare. Several macrolides produced allergic sensitization but, again, these are rare. Symptoms include watery eyes, shortness of breath, nasal congestion, choking, coughing and wheezing. Allergic skin reactions have also occurred. Exposure to at least one member of the family, erythromycin, at high concentrations, has produced reversible deafness (ototoxicity). Systemic reactions including fever, rash, and lymph-node pain or swelling have been produced by the avermectin group. Ivermectin has produced ataxia (incoordination), lethargy, bradypnea (slowed breathing), vomiting, mydriasis (dilated pupils), sedation, tremors and death in animals. The avermectin group (anthelmintics, insecticides and acaricides) mediate the transmission of gamma-butyric acid (GABA), an inhibitory neurotransmitter, in mammals thus causing paralysis. Hepatotoxic effects with transient disturbances and jaundice have resulted from the use of oleandomycin. Transient alterations in heart rate/ rhythm have also been produced by several members of the family (notably tilmicosin). Heart muscle degeneration, characterized by small areas of cell death have also been reported in animals exposed to tilmicosin. Cross-resistance is often observed between the macrolide, lincosamide and streptogramin group of antibiotics.
Although the material is not thought to be an irritant, direct contact with the eye may produce transient discomfort characterized by tearing or conjunctival redness (as with windburn).
The material is not thought to produce adverse health effects or skin irritation following contact (as classified using animal models). Nevertheless, good hygiene practice requires that exposure be kept to a minimum and that suitable gloves be used in an occupational setting. Open cuts, abraded or irritated skin should not be exposed to this material.
Inhalation may produce health damage*. The material is not thought to produce respiratory irritation (as classified using animal models). Nevertheless inhalation of the material, especially for prolonged periods, may produce respiratory discomfort and occasionally, distress. Respiratory sensitization may result in allergic/asthma like responses; from coughing and minor breathing difficulties to bronchitis with wheezing, gasping.
There is some evidence that inhaling this product is more likely to cause a sensitization reaction in some persons compared to the general population.
Principal routes of exposure are by accidental skin and eye contact andinhalation of generated dusts. Exposure to small quantities may induce hypersensitivity reactions characterized by acute bronchospasm, hives (urticaria), deep dermal wheals (angioneurotic edema), running nose (rhinitis) and blurred vision . Anaphylactic shock and skin rash (non-thrombocytopenic purpura) may occur. An individual may be predisposed to such anti-body mediated reaction if other chemical agents have caused prior sensitization (cross-sensitivity).
