- FOOD AND WATER SUPPLY
- Animals received ssniff SM R/M "Autoclavable complete diet for rats and mice – breeding and maintenance" produced by ssniff Spezialdiäten GmbH, D-59494 Soest Germany (Batch No.: 278 5652, expiry date: November 2016), ad libitum, and tap water from the municipal supply, as for human consumption from a 500 ml bottles, ad libitum. The food was considered not to contain any contaminants that could reasonably be expected to affect the purpose or integrity of the study.
- Water quality control analysis is performed once every three months and microbiological assessment is performed monthly, by Veszprém County Institute of State Public Health and Medical Officer Service (ÁNTSZ, H-8201 Veszprém, József, A.u.36., Hungary). The quality control results are retained in the archives at CiToxLAB Hungary Ltd.
TEST ITEM ADMINISTRATION
- The initial dose level was selected by the study director to be that which is most likely to produce mortality in some of the dosed animals. In the lack of any preliminary toxicological information, 2000 mg/kg bw was selected to be the starting dose.
- Initially, three female animals (Group 1) were treated with 2000 mg/kg bw of test item. No mortality was observed, therefore further 3 animals were treated at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. As no mortality was observed in this second dose group, further testing was not required according to the test guidelines (OECD 423, Commission Regulation (EC) NO 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, B.1.Tris).
- A single oral gavage administration was followed by a fourteen-day observation period. On the night before treatment, the animals were fasted. The food but not water was withheld during an overnight period. Animals were weighed just before treatment. The test item was administered by oral gavage in the morning. Food was returned three hours after treatment.
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS
- Clinical observations were performed on all surviving animals at 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours after dosing and daily for 14 days thereafter.
- Individual observations were performed on the skin, fur, eyes, mucous membranes, respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous system, somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern. Particular attention was directed to observation of tremors, convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma.
BODY WEIGHT MEASUREMENT
- The body weights of the animals were recorded on the day before treatment (Day -1), on the day of the treatment (Day 0) and weekly thereafter.
NECROPSY
- Macroscopic examination was performed on all animals. The animals were sacrificed by exsanguination under pentobarbital anaesthesia (Euthanimal 40%; Lot No.: 1409236-06, Expiry Date: September 2017, produced by: AlfasanNederland BV, Woerden, Netherlands).
- After examination of the external appearance, the cranial, thoracic and the abdominal cavities were opened and the organs and the tissues were observed. Macroscopic abnormalities were recorded. - Statistics:
- EVALUATION OF TEST RESULTS
- The method used was not intended to allow the calculation of a precise LD50 value.
- Clinical signs, body weight, body weight gain and gross macroscopic data were tabulated.

GUIDELINE
The single-dose oral toxicity of the test item was investigated according to the acute toxic class method (OECD 423, Commission Regulation (EC) No 440/2008 of 30 May 2008, B.1.Tris and OPPTS 870.1100) in Sprague Dawley rats.
METHODS
Two groups of three female Sprague Dawley rats were treated with the test item at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw (Group 1 and Group 2). A single oral treatment was carried out by gavage for each animal after withdrawal of food overnight. Food was made available again 3 hours after the treatment. The test item was administered formulated in peanut oil at a concentration of 200 mg/mL at a dose volume of 10 mL/kg bw. Initially, three female animals (Group 1) were treated with 2000 mg/kg bw of test item. No mortality was observed, therefore a further three animals were treated at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. No mortality was observed in the confirmatory group; therefore no further testing was required according to the test guidelines. Clinical observations were performed at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours after dosing and daily for 14 days thereafter. Body weight was measured on Days -1, 0 and 7 and before necropsy. All animals were subjected to a necropsy and a macroscopic examination.
RESULTS
The test itemdid not cause mortality at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. Clinical observations at the dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw were reported as decreased activity (4/6), hunched back (6/6), piloerection (6/6), and increased salivation (1/6). Body weight gains of treated animals during the study did not indicate a test item-related effect. No macroscopic observations were reported at 2000 mg/kg bw.
CONCLUSION
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the female Sprague Dawley rat was found to be > 2000 mg/kg bw.
