Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- other: Helianthi annui oleum raffinatum
- Details on oral exposure:
- A single oral administration - followed by a fourteen-day observation period - was performed by gavage.
Starting dose was selected on the basis of the available information about the test item. The acute toxic class method was carried out involving a stepwise procedure with the use of 2000 mg/kg bw as the starting dose in three female rats. Since no animal died on the treatment day and day 1 and the symptoms observed was not severe the test was continued at 2000 mg/kg bw dose level on further three female rats. Since two animals of group 1 died on Day 2 and one-one animal of group 2 died on Day 2 and on Day 3, respectively, the test was continued at 300 mg/kg bw dose level on further three female rats. There was no death in third step, so three further female rats were treated with the same (300 mg/kg bw) dose. No animal died in the fourth step, too, so the test was finished.
All doses were formulated in the vehicle. Concentration of formulations was adjusted to maintain a treatment volume of 10 mL/kg bw. The test item was applied in a concentration of 200 and 30 mg/mL. Formulations were prepared just before the administration and stirred continuously during the treatment.
The day before treatment the animals were fasted. The food but not water was withheld overnight. The food was given back 3 hours after the treatment. - Doses:
- 2000, 300 mg/kg bw
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 3 female/dose
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- The observation period was 14 day. Animals were observed individually after dosing at least once during the first 30 minutes, then 1 h, 2 h, 3 h, 4 h, 5 h and 6 h after the treatment and twice each day for 14 days thereafter.
The body weights were recorded on day 0 (just before the treatment), on day 7 and on day 15 with a precision of 1 g.
At the end of the observation period the surviver rats were sacrificed and necropsy were performed.
Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Sex:
- female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- 300 - 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Mortality:
- Altogether four rats dosed at 2000 mg/kg METHOXY-TETRALONE (CAS 1078-19-9) died during the study. Two females of group 1 died on Day 2. One animal died on Day 2 and one animal died on Day 3 from group 2.
All deaths seemed to be consequences of systemic toxic effect of the test item.
No death occurred at 300 mg/kg single oral dose of the test item. All female rats in step 3 and step 4 survived until the end of the 14-day observation period. - Clinical signs:
- other: In group 1 treated with 2000 mg/kg bw: Decreased activity (score -1; -2), abnormal gait (score +1; +2), incoordination (score +1; +2; +3), blood around the nose (score +1; +2), decreased righting reflex (score -1), decreased grip- and limb tone (score -1;
- Gross pathology:
- Four rats out of 6 animals treated with 2000 mg/kg bw dose of the test item spontaneously died during the study. External necropsy findings as anus contaminated with feces and dark urine was detected in one animal of group 1, as well as external necropsy findings as imperfectly developing and undernourishing were recorded in one animal of group 2. An internal necropsy finding as autolysis was observed in two animals of group 1 and in one animal of group 2, but it is normal physiological process after death.
Moderate hydrometra was observed in one female of the group 2 is physiological finding and connected to the cycle of the animal.
All animals treated with 300 mg/kg bw dose survived until the scheduled necropsy on Day 15. No pathological changes were found related to the effect of the test item during the macroscopic examination of animals treated with 300 mg/kg bw dose (group 3 and 4).
