Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Details on results:
FOOD EFFICIENCY
Poor food efficiency during exposure in the 200 mg/kg bw/day groups. During the post-exposure period the food efficiency was normal.

HAEMATOLOGY
Males in the 200 mg/kg bw/d group had a slightly increased erythrocyte level. Irregularities in the blood values of male and female animals were
observed. The prothrombin time was longer in the 200 mg/kg bw/d dose groups and in males dosed with 50 mg/kg bw/d.

GROSS PATHOLOGY
Increased liver weight in animals dosed with 200 mg/kg bw/d.

HISTOPATHOLOGY:
No deviations were reported.
