Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: unspecified
Vehicle:
not specified
Doses:
Preliminary study: 125, 250, 500, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg
Definitive study: 2000 mg/kg
No. of animals per sex per dose:
Number of animals used in preliminary study: 2
Number of animals used in definitive study: 5
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
A preliminary study was conducted to determine the dose range for the definitive test. As the preliminary study reported no abnormalities in rats up to a dose of 2000 mg/kg, a limit test was carried out for the definitive test. Treated rats were observed for a period of 14 days and clinical observations (e.g. mortality, body weight) were recorded.
