Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- other: no substance related mortality observed
- Conclusions:
- The acute oral toxicity of estrone-methylether in rats is above 2000 mg/kg body weight.
- Executive summary:
The single oral administration of estrone-methylether to male and female Wistar rats at the dose of 2000 mg/kg resulted in transient clinical signs (apathy and atactic gait). All animals were without treatment-related findings from Day 2 onwards. No compound-related macroscopic findings were seen. The acute oral toxicity of estrone-methylether in rats is above 2000 mg/kg body weight.
