Other effects:
No mortality occurred during the sstudy period. Body weights were within the normal range of variability. Clinical signs were limited to light orange coloured staining, caused by the test item, evident at the test site of all animals. The staining was present throughout the 14-day observation period in the two females and up to 10 days in the male.
