MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED:

DOSAGE PREPARATION (if unusual):3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid was dissolved in distilled water to obtain final concentration of 200 mg/lm.

Doses:
0 and 2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
Total: 9
0 mg/kg bw: 3 female
2000 mg/kg bw: 3 female (Group II)
2000 mg/kg bw: 3 female (Group III)
Control animals:
yes
Details on study design:
The test compound was administered by oral route by using of oral cannula at the dose volume of 10 ml/kg b.wt. The treated animals were closely observed for clinical signs of intoxication, first 4 hours and every 1 hrs interval for 24 hrs after dosing and thereafter twice a day for 14 days. All the rats were observed at least twice daily to observe any clinical signs or behavioral changes. The body weight of all the animals was observed weekly on day 0 (pre treatment), 7th and 14th (post treatment).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
Category 5 based on GHS criteria
Conclusions:
From the result obtained from present investigation it can be concluded that the test compound 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid is acutely non toxic upto the tested dose level of 2000 mg/kg b.wt in wistar albino rats when applied by oral route.
The acute oral LD50 cutoff of test compound 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid found to be more than 5000 mg/kg b.wt.
Executive summary:

In acute oral toxicity study, Wistar female rat were treated with 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid in the concentration of 0 (Group I) and 2000 mg/kg bw (Group II and III) in distilled water orally by gavage. No mortality and any clinical signs of toxicity were observed in treated rat at 2000 mg/kg bw. Normal gain in body weight and Skin and hair coat was observed wet, all external orifices were normal and no gross pathological changes were observed in treated rat. Therefore, LD50 cutoff was considered to be 5000 mg/kg bw when Wistar female rat were treated with 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid orally.
