- Weight at study initiation: males: 165-179 g; females: 164-169 g
- Fasting period before study: overnight
- Housing: the animals were housed in groups of 5 in Macrolon cages (type 3)
- Diet (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum rat food - NAFAG, Gossau SG
- Water (e.g. ad libitum): ad libitum water
- Acclimation period: a minimum of 4 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 22 ± 1
- Humidity (%): 55 ± 5
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): a 10 hours light cycle day

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose)
Remarks:
2%
Details on oral exposure:
DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 20 mL/kg

DOSAGE PREPARATION (if unusual):
The test substance was suspended. Before treatment the suspension was homogeneously dispersed with an Ultra-Turrax and during treatment it was kept stable with a magnetic stirrer.

Rationale for dose selection: no higher doses were possible
Doses:
4000, 5000, 6000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5/sex/dose
Control animals:
no
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Bodyweights were recorded immediately prior to dosing (control weights) and at 7 and 14 days; physical condition and rate of deaths were monitored throughout the whole observation period
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
