- Analytical purity: 92%

Test animals

Species:
rat
Strain:
other: ChR-CD
Sex:
male
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Weight at study initiation: 250-286g

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
inhalation: vapour
Type of inhalation exposure:
whole body
Vehicle:
air
Details on inhalation exposure:
The test material was metered into a glass U-tube immersed in a silicone oil bath at 120-125ºC. The resulting vapour was carried by a stream of air
into an 18-L glass chamber containing 10 rats.
Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
yes
Remarks:
The chamber atmospheric concentration was analyzed 8-10 times per exposure via gas chromotagraphy.
Duration of exposure:
4 h
Concentrations:
not specifed
No. of animals per sex per dose:
10
Control animals:
not specified
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight, histopathology
Statistics:
For calculation of the LC50, the Litchfield and Wilcoxon method was used on the 14-day mortality data.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
not specified
Dose descriptor:
LC50
Effect level:
546 ppm
Based on:
test mat.
95% CL:
506 - 590
Exp. duration:
4 h
Mortality:
All deaths occurred post-exposure. Animals died between one day and 14 days post-exposure (no specific data presented for the individual isomers).
Clinical signs:
other: At lethal levels, the isomers caused irregular breathing, lacrimation, salivation, and hyperemia of the ears during exposure (no specific data presented on individual isomers).
Body weight:
Initial body weight loss by rats caused by all isomers was approximately 10%. Only 4/21 survivors regained their pre-exposure body weight within 14 days.
Gross pathology:
No data
Other findings:
- Histopathology: Histologic examination of tissues revealed lesions and hemorrhage of lungs, tracheitis, and cell degeneration in liver, spleen, thymus, and lymph nodes. Tubular degeneration of the kidneys was also noted.
