Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Duration of exposure:
24 h
Doses:
0.625, 1.25 and 2.5 ml/kg bw (462.5, 925 and 1850 mg/kg bw; conversion in mg/kg bw is based on the density d=0.74 g/cm3)

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
925 mg/kg bw
95% CL:
622 - 1 369
Remarks on result:
other: conversion in mg/kg bw is based on the density d=0.74 g/cm3
Mortality:
1850 mg/kg bw: 4/4, within 24 h
925 mg/kg bw: 2/4, one animal on day 1 and on day 5 posttreatment
462.5 mg/kg bw: 0/4
Clinical signs:
other: no data
Gross pathology:
Necrosis of the skin resulted from the covered application. Internal organs of victims appeared pale or opaque. This may have been caused by the corrosive action of the compound on these organs. Only the lung among the 6 that died had hemorrhaged. All others looked normal.
