Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
Male: 2000 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 1
Female: 2000 mg/kg bw; Number of animals: 5; Number of deaths: 1
Clinical signs:
Signs of toxicity related to dose levels:
There were no mortalities, however, one male was killed in
extremis due to the appearance of a tumour on the neck of
the animal on Day 9 of the study. this was a carcinoma of
adnexal origin, probably a basal cell carcinoma. The tumour
was thought to have developed spontaneously and is not
treatment related.
Gross pathology:
Effects on organs:
No macroscopic abnormalities were observed.
Other findings:
Signs of toxicity (local):
Transient slight erythema with or without slight oedema was
seen in two males and all females on removal of the
dressings, resolving completely by Day 6. In addition,
localised spots were observed on two males and two females
in the first week of the study. No dermal response to
treatment was observed in the remaining animals throughout
the study with the exception of residual test substance
staining on the treatment site resolving completely by Day
6.
