Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: unspecified
Vehicle:
olive oil
Doses:
The starting dose can be selected from the fixed dose levels of 5, 50, 300, and 2000 mg/kg body weight. Available information indicated that the test item was likely to be non-toxic regarding acute toxicity therefore we chose a dose of 2000 mg of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-2-methyl-2-(morpholin-4-yl)propan-1-one per kg body weight to be used as a starting dose. In the first step, one group of 3 females was dosed. The test item in limit dose did not cause mortality for 48 hours and therefore, in a second step, another 3 females were treated at the same dose level.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Key result
Sex:
female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Clinical signs:
No signs of intoxication, change of health, nor any other adverse reactions during 24 hours and 14-days observation period at limit dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was observed in Animals No 1–4 and No 6. Mortality at limit dose of 2000 mg/kg body weight was observer in Animal No 5 within first 24 h with only mild signs of adverse effect (piloerection).
Body weight:
The body weights of all animals increased during the study
Gross pathology:
All animals were necropsied. No visible pathological findings were observed in animals dosed with 2000 mg/kg body weight.
