- 1 female at 300mg/kg
5 females at 2000mg/kg - Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: 0.5, 1, 2 and 4 hours after dosing and then daily for 14 days.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight,organ weights, histopathology, other: Individual body weights were recorded on Day 0 and Days 7 and 14.
Results and discussion
- Preliminary study:
- At dose level 300mg/kg no mortality was observed. Based on these results a dose level of 2000mg/kg was investigated.

- Executive summary:
Introduction:
The study was performed to assess the acute oral toxicity of the test item in the Wistar strain rat.
Methods:
Following a sighting test at dose levels of 300mg/kg and 2000mg/kg, a further group of four fasted females was given a single oral dose of test item at a dose level of 2000mg/kg bodyweight. Clinical signs and bodyweight development were monitored during the study. All anmals were subjected to gross necropsy.
Results:
There were no deaths. There were no signs of Systemic toxicity. All animals showed expected gains in bodyweights over the observation period. No abnormalites were noted during necropsy.
Conclusion:
The acute oral median lethal dose (LD50) of the test item in the female Wistar strain rat was estimated to be greater than 2000mg/kg body weight (GHS-Unclassified).
