Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

The acute oral toxicity of methyl 3 -aminocrotonate was determined in fasted male and female rats after single administration of seven concentrations with an application volume of 20 ml/kg via stomach tube with an observation period of 14 d.

The acute oral LD50was 1760 mg/kg.
