Any other information on results incl. tables

Injection of 7.5 mg of sodium succinate hexahydrate into the yolk sacs of fertile hen eggs at 96 hours of incubation produced no discernible toxic or teratogenic effects in the embryos.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Read across rationale: sodium succinate and succinic acid dissociate completely in low concentrations and are existent in solutions as the same ion.
Injection of 7.5 mg of sodium succinate hexahydrate into the yolk sacs of fertile hen eggs at 96 hours of incubation produced no discernible toxic or teratogenic effects in the embryos.
Executive summary:

Injection of 7.5 mg of sodium succinate hexahydrate into the yolk sacs of fertile hen eggs at 96 hours of incubation produced no discernible toxic or teratogenic effects in the embryos.
