Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
316 mg/kg bw
Mortality:
215 mg/kg: 0/5
464, 1000, 2150 mg/kg: 5/5
Clinical signs:
other: All test levels higher than 215 mg/kg produced severe depression.
Gross pathology:
The fatalities exhibited extensive hemorrhaging of the upper gastrointestinal tract. The survivors appeared normal when necropsied 14-days after treatment.
