Sex:
male/female
Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Charles River Laboratories, Kingston, New York, USA
- Age at study initiation: 9-12 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 279-318 g (males), 204-219 g (females)
- Fasting period before study: animals were fasted overnight prior administration
- Housing: 2 to 6 animals of the same sex per cage (during acclimation) und individual (during study) per cages. Cages were suspended, stainless cages with wire mesh bottoms.
- Diet: certified Rodent Diet, No. 5002 (PMI Nutrition International, Inc., St. Louis, MO), ad libitum
- Water: automatic watering system, Municipal water supply (Elizabethtown Water Company), ad libitum
- Acclimation period: 15 days

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature (°C): 18 – 26
- Humidity (%): 30 -70
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
unchanged (no vehicle)
Details on oral exposure:
MAXIMUM DOSE VOLUME APPLIED: 2 mL/kg



Doses:
2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
5
Control animals:
other: not required
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: animals were checked for viability daily. Each animal was examined (general condition, skin and fur, eyes nose, oral cavity, abdomen and external genitalia as well as evaluations of respiration and palpation for tissue masses) approximately 1, 2, and 4 hours after dosing and daily thereafter for 14 days. Individual body weights were determined on day 0 (at the time of fasting), day 1 (just prior to dosing; weights were used for calculation of doses), day 8 and 15
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
- Other examinations performed: clinical signs, body weight, food consumption, macroscopic post-mortem examination.

Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD100
Effect level:
> 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Mortality:
No mortality occurred during the study period.
Clinical signs:
other: No clinical signs of toxicity related to the administration of the test substance were observed up to the end of the 14-day observation period. However alopecia extremities on snout was seen in a single animal on day 9 through day 15 after the dose admini
Gross pathology:
Necropsy revealed no substance-related findings.
