male
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
0.794 mL/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
95% CL:
0.584 - 1.08
Mortality:
1 ml/kg dose group: 4 out of 5 animals died. In the 2.15 and 4.64 ml/kg dose group all animals died.
Clinical signs:
other: Rats appeared markedly depressed and exhibited depressed righting and placement and absent pain reflexes, labored respiration, salivation, blood stains around the muzzles, inkempt fur coats, intermittent tremors. The higher the dosing the more intensified
Gross pathology:
Gross necropsy revealed, externally, slight amount of salivation and blood stains around the muzzles of four rats, urine stains on three rats, and unkempt fur on two rats; internally, all rats exhibited congested lungs, adrenals, and kidneys, irritated to hemorrhagic intestines filled with bloody fluid or fluid resembling the sample, diffusely pale livers, irritated and wrinkled peritoneal walls, and slight to advanced autolysis. No other gross pathological alterations were observed
