The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information

Increased liver and kidney weights were observed in both males and females at the highest dose level.

During study, administration of the test material was also associated with observations of staining and matting of the perineal hair, often in females of the highest dose level, less often in females of the middle dose, occasionally on males of the highest dose group; and frequently in females of the low dose level group. The cause of this perineal soiling and its toxicological significance is uncertain.

Body weights and weight gains of the male middle dose level group increased along with increased food consumption, perhaps because of increased palatability.

No adverse gross or histopathological findings, urinalysis, serum chemistry, or haematology changes were found that corresponded with the increased relative liver and kidney weights, the perineal staining and matting, or the increased food consumption, body weights and body weight gains.

The NOAEL for males and females was 30 mg/kgBW/day.
