Test animals

Species:
rabbit
Strain:
New Zealand White
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
The rabbits were about 2 – 3 months old and weighed about 2.5 – 2.8.
All animals were clinically observed and 20% of them were weighed: their weight conformed to that required. The animals were housed in the same room in which the treatment was performed.
Animal room controls were set to maintain temperature and relative humidity at 20°C ± 2 and 50% ± 15, respectively. There were approximately 20air changes per hour. The room was illuminated by artificial lighting with a 12 hour circadian cycle (7 a.m. – 7 p.m.).
the contents of the batches of diet used in this study were within ± 5% of the declared values and the presence and the levels of contaminants were within the limits proposed by EPA-TSCA. The diet was available “ad libitum” to the animals.

Amount / concentration applied:
Dose administered: 0.5 g/site
Duration of treatment / exposure:
