Details on study design:
Wessalith AP 400 (vehicle: aqueous carboxymethylcellulose suspension (1%) was administered at a single oral concentration of 5110 mg/kg bw (administration volume: 21.5 mL/kg bw) to 5 female and 5 male rats by gavage, respectively. Mortality was checked twice daily. The body weights were recorded at the beginning and also 7 and 14 days after administration. After 14 days observation period (post application) the animals were sacrificed and gross necropsy was performed on all animals.
Statistics:
Not applicable (no mortality occurred)
