TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Envigo RMS B.V., Inc, AD Horst, The Netherlands
- Females nulliparous and non-pregnant: yes
- Age at study initiation: 9 - 11 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 207.6 - 274.7 g (females)
- Fasting period before study: animals were fasted overnight prior to administration
- Housing: 1 - 5 animals of the same sex per cage in Makrolon Type IV cages, with wire mesh top, granulated soft wood bedding
- Diet: 2018C Teklad Global 18% protein rodent diet, ad libitum
- Water: tap water, ad libitum
- Acclimation period: at least 5 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22 + 4
- Humidity (%): 28 -72
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on oral exposure:
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 10 mL/kg bw

DOSAGE PREPARATION: DMPSA-K2 solution, dose calculation was adjusted to purity

- Rationale for the selection of the starting dose: Based on available information on the toxicity of the test item, 300 mg/kg bw was chosen as the initial starting dose, since a severe toxicity which may necessitate humane euthanasia was not expected at this dose level.
Doses:
300 and 2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
1 (300 mg/kg bw)
5 (2000 mg/kg bw)
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Clinical observations and inspections for morbidity / mortality were performed at least three times within the first six hours after application (i.e., 30 minutes and 1 hour, 2 hours and 4 – 6 hours after dosing), thereafter at least once daily for 14 days. Bodyweights were determined Day 0 (prior to dosing), Day 7, and Day 14.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
At both doses 300 and 2000 mg/kg bw, there were no deaths observed during the study.
Clinical signs:
other: 300 mg/kg bw: There were no clinical signs observed. 2000 mg/kg bw: One animal showed reduced activity. These signs were first noted approximately one hour after dosing. Recovery, as judged by external appearance and behavior, was complete by day 1 after
Body weight:
other body weight observations
Remarks:
The animal showed expected gains in body weight over the observation period.
Gross pathology:
300 mg/kg bw: No abnormalities were noted at the macroscopic examination at study termination.
2000 mg/kg bw: One animal showed discoloration (red dots) in the thymus. No abnormalities were noted at necropsy in the remaining animals.
