Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
NOAEL was considered to be 100mg/kg/day for Ametryne(834-12-8)in male and female rats by subchronic study by oral gavage.
Executive summary:

Repeated dose toxicity study for Ametryne was assessed to evaluate its toxic potential. The test material was exposed at the concentration of0,100, 250, or 500 mg/kg/day in male and female rats by oral gavage for 28 days. The rats were observed for clinical sign,mortality,body weight ,gross and histipathology.Mortality wasobserved at the dose level of 250 and 500mg/kg/day. At the dose level of 500 mg/kg/day in treated animals severe vascular congestion, centrilobular liver necrosis and fatty degeneration of individual liver cells were observed compare to control. No significant effect and mortality was observed at 100 mg/kg/dayin any treated animals. Therefore NOAEL was considered to be 100 mg/kg/day inmale and female rats by subchronic study by oral gavage.
