Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
sligthly toxic
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: not specified
Conclusions:
A study in rats suggested that Santovar was slightly toxic, an oral LD50 of 1900 mg/kg bw was reported. The study was not performed according to the general guidelines for acute oral toxicity under GLP conditions and was very poorly documented. Therefore, the information may be considered reliable with major restrictions.
