Principles of method if other than guideline:
A single dose of undiluted test material (5g/kg) was administered orally to 5 male and 5 female fasted rats. Food and water was made available ad-lib immediately after dosing. The animals were observed for clinical signs and mortality at hourly intervals for the first 6 hours post dosing and
twice daily thereafter. Body weights were recorded prior to fasting, prior to dosing and at 7 and 14 days post dosing. At 14 days, all surviving animals were killed and subjected to a gross necropsy examination.

Any other information on results incl. tables

There were no deaths during the study. Clinical signs observed included: hypoactivity, yellow-stained anal area, hair loss in the urogenital region and swollen hind paws. All animals returned to normal by day 3 and had gained weight by day 7. At necropsy, there were no visible lesions except in one female in which the spleen was cystic, mottled red and tan and had a rough surface. In this animal the pancreas adhered to the entire surface of the spleen.
