Observations in animals that died:

- 681 mg/kg: general congestive hyperaemia, strikingly dark, black-brown kidneys, light bronze-coloured liver, green/black contents in caecum

- 1000 mg/kg: haematin-containing contents in intestines, liver with grey lobular periphery, in some cases confluent

- 1000 -2150 mg/kg: in stomach: suspicion of irritation, blood ulceration, corrosion of the glandubular stomach mucosa, mucosa stained in several cases by test substance; in small intestines contents stained with substance; strikingly liquid coontents in caecum

- 2150 mg/kg: substance-stained urine

Histopathology:

- 681 mg/kg (one animal): panlobular fatty degeneration in liver and renal tubular necroses in cortex and hydropic tubular degeneration in the medulla

- 1000 mg/kg (one animal): acute yellow dystrophy in the liver

Observations in sacrificed animals:

- 464 and 1000 mg/kg: no abnormalities

- 681 mg/kg: enlarged kidneys in 2 males, pale sreen-type pattern, in other animals no abnormalities

Histopathology:

- 681 mg/kg (one animal): nephrocalcinosis in the cortex and medulla of the kidneys, interstitial repair processes, tubular epithelial regeneration

Applicant's summary and conclusion
