Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
arachis oil
Details on oral exposure:
VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 300 mg active ingriedient/kg bodyweight, 50 mg active ingredient/kg bodyweight
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 ml active ingredient/kg bodyweight
- Justification for choice of vehicle: The test material did not dissolve/suspend in distilled water

MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10 ml active ingredient/kg bodyweight

CLASS METHOD (if applicable)
- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: There was an absence of data regarding the toxicity of the test material.
Doses:
300 mg active ingriedient/kg bodyweight and 50 mg active ingredient/kg bodyweight
No. of animals per sex per dose:
1 for 300 mg active ingriedient/kg bodyweight
6 for 50 mg active ingredient/kg bodyweight
All were females.
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Once a day
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight,organ weights, histopathology, other:
Clinical signs and body weight examinations were performed.

Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
One mouse given a dosage level of 300 mg active ingredient/kg bodyweight. Hunched posture was noted at 4 hours, and at 1 day signs of systemic toxicity noted were hunched posture, lethargy, pilo-erection, dehydration, decreased respiratory rate and pallor of the extremities. The animal was killed in extremis one day after dosing. Patchy pallor of the liver was noted at necropsy. Based on this information, a dose level of 79 mg/kg bodyweight was selected for investigation.
