Any other information on results incl. tables

There were no mortalities.

Slight to moderate hair loss was noted in all female animals from either Study Day 2 or 3 until Study Day 15. No treatment-related clinical signs of toxicity were observed in male animals.

The mean body weight gain in females was slightly reduced compared to background control data. There was no treatment-related effect on body weight gain in males.

No abnormalities of the thoracic and abdominal viscera were observed.

The acute oral LD50 value of the test substance in both male and female rats was greater than 2000 mg/kg body weight.
