Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

In an acute oral toxicity study in male Wistar rats the animals were treated once via gavage with following doses of test substance: 0.5, 1.0, 3.1, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0 ml/kg bw. Following symptoms of toxicity could be observed in the animals tested: diminuated general condition, cyanosis, narcosis, scrubby fur and bloody eyes and nose.

The LD 50 was found to be: 2.61 ml/kg bw.
