Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
ca. 25 mg/kg bw
Remarks on result:
other: original value: ca. 30 mm3/kg
Mortality:
32 mm3/kg: 3/5 after 14 days; 40 mm3/kg: 4/5 after 14 days; 50 mm3/kg: 5/5 after 14 days; 100 and 200 mm3/kg: 5/5 after 7 days
Clinical signs:
Immediately after injection restlessness, accelerated breathing and - in the higher dose levels - atony and jumping convulsions; thereafter gasping and normal behaviour. After 2 - 3 days deterioration of the general state: shaking movements, staggering and clotty eyes. Only gently recovery. Animals died between 15 minutes and 8 days after injection. The survivors were without findings after 10 days.
Gross pathology:
Animals that died: reddened small intestine in the injection area; one animals with fat tissue necrosis in the abdomen.
Sacrificed animals: Organs essentially without findings.
