Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No conclusions can be drawn based on the available data.
Executive summary:

Intraperitoneal injections of 1/3 the LD50 (approx. 36 mg/kg bw) into white rats and mice of unspecified strain produced effects on xenobiotic-metabolising liver enzymes 24 h after the last dosing: there was a prolongation of the hexobarbital sleeping time, an increased activity of the monoamine oxidase and a decrease in the activity of the activity of the succinate dehydrogenase. The amount of urinary antipyrine metabolites were reduced. There was also an increase in lipid peroxidation and a decrease in the content of intercellular free SH groups as well as an increase in SS-groups (Sidorin et al., 1984).
