Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
water
Remarks:
Aqua dest.
Details on oral exposure:
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10 mL/kg

Doses:
200 and 2000 mg/kg body weight
No. of animals per sex per dose:
2
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: mortality/toxicity symptoms were checked at frequent intervals during test day one and twice daily during days 2-14 (working days). The animals were weighed on the day before the application, on the day of application, on day 2, 7 and 14 after application
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes, macroscopic examination of all external orifices and the organs in thoracic and visceral cavity.
Statistics:
Not applicable.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occurred
Clinical signs:
other: Some animals (males and females) showed after the application reduced activity, piloerection and difficulty of breathing (dyspnoea). Three hours later there were no symptoms observed.
Gross pathology:
- males, dose 200 mg/kg: no macroscopic findings were considered to be treatment related. One male had no feces in the rectum and the rectum was slight dilated.
- females, dose 200 mg/kg: no macroscopic findings were considered to be treatment related.
- males, dose 2000 mg/kg: no macroscopic findings were considered to be treatment related.
- females, dose 2000 mg/kg: no macroscopic findings were considered to be treatment related. Two females showed hydrometra.
