Dose descriptor:
other: LOAEL
Effect level:
119 mg/kg bw
Remarks on result:
other: LOAEL yield a mortality of 20 % (1/5 animals) and toxic symptoms like spasms, inappetence and weakness were observed in all treated animals. At 297 mg/kg bw 66% mortality (2/3 animals) was observed.
Mortality:
59 mg/kg bw (0.05 mL/kg bw 0.5 % solution in oil): no mortality NOAEL (n= 3);
119 mg/kg bw (0.10 mL/kg bw 1.0 % solution in oil): mortality 1/5;
297 mg/kg bw (0.25 mL/kg bw 2.5 % solution in oil): mortality 2/3;
593 mg/kg bw (0.50 mL/kg bw 5.0 % solution in oil): mortality 3/3.
Clinical signs:
119 mg/kg bw (0.10 mL/kg bw 1.0 % solution in oil): all animals with toxic symptoms (spasms, inappetence, weakness).
297 mg/kg bw (0.25 mL/kg bw 2.5 % solution in oil): all animals with toxic symptoms (spasms, inappetence, weakness).
593 mg/kg bw (0.50 mL/kg bw 5.0 % solution in oil): all animals with toxic symptoms (spasms, inappetence, weakness).
