male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 25 - < 200 mg/kg bw
Based on:

2000 mg/kg bw: 3/3 males within 1 hour after dosing
Clinical signs:
other: 25 mg/kg bw : no clinical signs were observed 200 mg/kg bw: 2/3 males showed convulsions and pronation approximately 5 minutes after dosing 2000 mg/kg bw: 3/3 males showed convulsions appproximately 1 minute after dosing
Gross pathology:
Abnormal content (yellow or pale mucoid or creamy material) in the stomach and in the jejunum of the early decedent male animals.
Skin/fur staining around the perioral/perinasal region in early decedent male animals.
