- Statistics:
- For body weight, average values and standard deviations were calculated for each group. Significant difference test was performed using Dunnett's multiple comparison tests between control group and each administration group.
Results and discussion
- Preliminary study:
- In the preliminary tests using the male rats previously conducted (administration stage: 0, 125, 500, and 2000 mg/kg), the dose was not decreased even when 2000 mg/kg was administered, and the dose decreased, only a low value of body weight was recognized. Therefore, in this study, 2000 mg/kg was set as high dose, and 1000 and 500 mg/kg were set as the common ratio 2 below. As a control, a group to which only the vehicle (corn oil) of the same volume as the administration liquid of the test substance administration group was administered was provided.

- Conclusions:
- The acute oral toxicity dose (LD50) was considered to be >2000 mg/kg bw, when groups of 5 male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley [Crj: CD (SD) IGS, (SPF)] rats were treated with 1,2-di(ethenyl)benzene (CAS no: 1321-74-0) via oral gavage route.
- Executive summary:
The acute oral toxicity study was conducted by using 1,2-di(ethenyl)benzene (CAS no: 1321-74-0) in groups of 5 male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley [Crj: CD (SD) IGS, (SPF)] rats at the dose concentration of0, 500, 1000, 2000 mg/kg bw. The given test chemical (Lot No. SXS2; purity: 96.2%, with ethyl vinyl benzene as impurity 3.2 wt%, p-tert-butyl catechol as 1010 ppm and others as 0.6 wt%) was prepared by dilution with corn oil and administered as 10 mL/kg via oral gavage route. In the preliminary tests using the male rats previously conducted (administration stage: 0, 125, 500, and 2000 mg/kg), the dose was not decreased even when 2000 mg/kg was administered, and the dose decreased, only a low value of body weight was recognized. Therefore, in this study, 2000 mg/kg was set as high dose, and 1000 and 500 mg/kg were set as the common ratio 2 below. As a control, a group to which only the vehicle (corn oil) of the same volume as the administration liquid of the test substance administration group was administered was provided. The general condition and the presence or absence of death were observed once a day until the administration day before administration and 6 hours after administration (30 minutes after administration, 2, 4 and 6 hours after administration), and during the observation period from the day after administration; Weighing: Measurement was made on the administration day and at 1, 3, 7, 10 and 14 days after administration. At the end of the observation period, necropsy was done after exsanguination of the abdominal aorta from the abdominal aorta under ether anesthesia and then necropsied. For body weight, average values and standard deviations were calculated for each group. Significant difference test was performed using Dunnett's multiple comparison tests between control group and each administration group. No mortality was observed in both sexes. In the observation of the general condition, a decline in locomotor activity was observed in 2 to 6 hours after administration in both sexes in the 2000 mg/kg group. Besides, diarrhea was observed in each group including females of the control group, but it was considered to be based on corn oil used as a medium. In the 500 mg/kg group, low body weight was observed on both the males and females one day after administration. In the 1000 mg/kg group, low body weight was observed in both sexes on days 1 and 3 after administration. In the 2000 mg/kg group, low body weight was observed on males in 1 to 10 days after administration and in females on 1 and 3 days after administration. There was no abnormality in both sexes. Therefore, the LD50 value was considered to be >2000 mg/kg bw, when groups of 5 male and 5 female Sprague-Dawley [Crj: CD (SD) IGS, (SPF)] rats were treated with 1,2-di(ethenyl)benzene via oral gavage route.
