After the 14-day observation period, all animals which survived the experiment were killed by an intraperitoneal administration of morbital at a dose of 200 mg/kg b.w. and subjected to the post mortem examination. - Preliminary study:
- Following a single administration of the test item at a dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w. to one animal used in the sighting study, some signs of toxicity were visible on the administration day. These included a slight decrease in locomotor activity, dejection and a bristled coat – from the 1st to the 5th hour after the administration. On 1st and 2nd day after the administration, the animal’s gait was wavering. The animal survived the 14-day observation period. During the entire experiment, the animal’s body weight increased. The animal necropsy did not reveal any pathological changes.

- Executive summary:
The acute oral toxicity study – fixed dose procedure, according to the OECD Guideline No. 420 / EU Method B.1.bis, was performed in order to obtain information on health hazards likely to arise from a single oral exposure caused by the consumption of the test item. The experiment commenced with a sighting study in which the test item at a single dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w was administered to one animal. On the grounds of the sighting study results, four animals used in the main study were given the test item at a dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w. (the animal of the sighting study was included in the main study). After the administration of the test item, the animals were observed for 14 days. General and detailed clinical observations were conducted daily during the entire experiment. The animals’ body weight was determined individually on day 0 (directly before the administration of the test item) as well as on the 7th and 14th day.
After the 14-day observation period, all animals which survived the experiment were euthanized and subjected to a necropsy and a detailed gross examination. Following a single administration of the test item at a dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w. to one animal, some signs of toxicity were observed. The animal survived the 14-day observation period. Following a single administration of the test item at a dose of 2000 mg/kg b.w. to the next four animals used in the main study, no clinical signs were observed during the 14-day observation period. All animals survived the observation period. Body weight gains were stated in all animals. The animal necropsy did not reveal any pathological changes. The oral LD50 for the test substance was greater than 2000 mg/kg bw.
