Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
One part of the test substance administered intraperitoneal is rapidly absorbed from the peritoneum, another part of the substance experience a first pass-effect in the liver.
This mechanism caused that the intraperitoneal bioavailability of the test substance is greater than the oral, so based on the intraperitoneal LD50 = 300 mg/kg bw value, the substance can be classified into acute oral toxicity category 3.
