Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Results and discussion

Details on results:
Signs of toxicity:
No deaths and no signs of toxicity. Reduced body weight gain
was noted in animals treated with 50 or 200 mg/kg CG 20-568.
Effects on liver:
Dose-related increase in absolute liver weight at 10 mg/kg
and above for both substances (80-90% above controls at
highets dose).
Ultrastructural examination of animals treated with 200
mg/kg revealed a striking proliferation of peroxisomes,
particularly with CG 20-568. A marginal proliferation of
smooth endoplasmic reticulum was noted with CG 20-568.
There was a dose-dependent and statistically high
significant increase in peroxisomal beta-oxidation at 10
mg/kg and above for both substances. Increased cytochrome
P-452 and decreased activity of UDP-glucuronosyltransferase
and glutathione S-transferase were also noted with both
substances.
