Higher percentage of mortality was recorded in males.

Dose level 6310 mg/kg bw

Males: no clinical signs of intoxication were observed, all animals survived.

Females: no clinical signs of intoxication were observed, all animals survived.

Dose level 7943 mg/kg bw

Males: 3 animals died till the 2ndday; diarrhea of all animals was recorded 3 hours after application. Survived animals were without clinical signs of intoxication till four days after application.

Females: Diarrhoea was observed in all animals; all animals were without clinical signs of intoxication till four days and survived.

Dose level 10000 mg/kg bw

Males: Disarrhoea in all animals, somnolence in two animals were recorded. All animals were cyanotic. Two animals died till the 2ndday after application. Survived animals were without clinical signs of intoxication till three days after application.

Females: The same clinical signs as in males were observed in females, somnolence was observed in one female, 3 females died till the 2ndday after application. Survived animals were without clinical signs of intoxication till tree days after application.

Dose at 12590 mg/kg bw

Males: The first animal died 3 hrs after application; next three died in the 2ndday after application and one male died the 3rdday.

The clinical signs of intoxication were observed 3 hrs after application: piloerction, anemic mucous membranes and somnolence.

Females: All animals died till the 2ndday after application, the same clinical signs as in males were observed and also red discharge from nostrils was recorded.

Overall

Catarrh of stomach was recorded in all dead animals.

No pathological findings were recorded in sacrificed animals at the end of test.

Clinical signs of intoxication in lethal dose level are anemia, cyanosis followed by somnolence.

The test sample affected digestive tract – diarrhea, catarrh of stomach and intestine were recorded. These findings are reversible till 14 days.
