- Acclimation period: at least 1 week


ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 20 - 24
- Humidity (%): 30 - 70
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12 / 12

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose)
Details on oral exposure:
- Concentration of test material in vehicle: 11%
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 20 ml/kg bw
- Justification for choice of vehicle: aquous formulation corrresponds to the physiological medium


MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 20 ml/kg bw

3
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 day
- Frequency of observations and weighing: recording of signs and symptomps several times on the day of administration, at least once each workday; individually body weights shortly before application (day 0), and on days 7 and 13
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 200 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occured.
Clinical signs:
other: In the male and female animals was black discolored feces. Males additionally exhibited piloerection and black smeared fur in the anogenital area
Gross pathology:
No pathological findings
Other findings:
Symptoms after administration of 2200 mg/kg bw of test material in vehicle by gavage:

Males:
day1-day2: piloerection (2/3 animals)
hour4-day2: discoloured feces (black) (3/3 animals)
hour4-day3: black smeared fur in the anogenital area (2/3 animals)

Females:
hour1-day1: discoloured feces (black) (3/3 animals)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
practically nontoxic
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The analogue substance was tested for acute oral toxicity following OECD 401. The tested sample showed LD50 (rat, oral) > 2200 mg/kg bw, without mortality or gross pathological changes.
