Acute toxicity: via oral route

Reference
Endpoint:
acute toxicity: oral
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
other information
Study period:
June to July 1994
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: guideline study
Qualifier:
equivalent or similar to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 423 (Acute Oral toxicity - Acute Toxic Class Method)
Test type:
acute toxic class method
Limit test:
yes
Species:
rat
Strain:
Wistar
Sex:
male/female
Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
not specified
Doses:
2000 mg/kg
No. of animals per sex per dose:
3
Control animals:
no
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.

No animal died in the course of the study. A single oral (gavage) application of 2000 mg/kg was tolerated without compound-related clinical findings. The body weight gain on days 7 and 14 was within the normal range for rats of this age and strain, which are routinely used in the laboratory. Autopsy revealed no compound-related findings.

Executive summary:

A single oral administration of the test substance by gavage to male and female rats at the limit-dose 2000 mg/kg was tolerated without mortalities, clinical signs, effects on body weight gain and gross pathological findings. According to OECD TG 423 the oral LD50 of ZK 28519 is therefore > 2000 mg/kg body weight.

Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.

No animal died in the course of the study. A single dermal application of 2000 mg/kg was tolerated without compound-related clinical findings. The body weight gain on days 7 and 14 was within the normal range for rats of this age and strain, which are routinely used in the laboratory. Autopsy revealed no compound-related findings.

Executive summary:

A single dermal administration of the test substance to male and female rats at the limit-dose 2000 mg/kg was tolerated without mortalities, compound-related clinical findings, effects on body weight gain and gross pathological findings. According to OECD TG 402 the dermal LD50 of ZK 28519 is therefore > 2000 mg/kg body weight.

Additional information

The acute oral toxicity of the test substance was low with a LD50 value exceeding 2000 mg/kg bw in rats equivalent to OECD TG 423 (Treher, 1994). At the limit-dose 2000 mg/kg no animal died and no clinical signs, effects on body weight gain or gross pathological findings were observed during the 14-day post observation period.

The acute dermal toxicity of the test substance was low with a LD50 value exceeding 2000 mg/kg bw in rats according to OECD TG 402 (Kurth, 1994). At the limit-dose 2000 mg/kg no animal died and no clinical signs, effects on body weight gain or gross pathological findings were observed during the 14-day post observation period.
