- Executive summary:
A 28 days repeated dose oral toxicity study of the test chemical in Wistar rats with 14 days recovery was conducted, where in 0, 250, 500 or 1000 mg/kg body weight in corn oil, doses were tested. Animals of all dose groups were observed for Clinical signs/ symptoms daily during the experimental period. No treatment related toxic clinical signs or symptoms and reproductive effects were observed in any of the animals from all treated groups, throughout the study. Also,No statistical significant was observed in absolute (g) and relative weights (%) among all organs including the reproductive organs testes, prostate with seminal vesicle, epididymis, ovaries with oviduct and uterus in both sexes when compared to control group. The reproductive No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) for the test chemical is found to be1000 mg/kg body weight/day when Wistar male and female Rats were treated with the test chemical in a 28 day sub-acute toxicity study.
