Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
1 830 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
95% CL:
990 - 3 390
Mortality:
At 500mg/kg: no deaths were observed.
At 1000 mg/kg: deaths occurred in 2 animals after 4 hours. These animals remained moribund for the next 2-3 days during which time an additional death occurred.
At 2000 mg/kg: 3 animals died 3 hours after dosing.
At 4000 mg/kg: 2 animals died after 3 hours. The remaining animals were semi-comatose for the next 72 hours, with an additional 2 animals expiring on days 3 and 4.
At 8000 mg/kg : all animals died within 15 minutes.
Clinical signs:
other: At the lowest dose tested, the animals were lethargic and ruffled after 2 hours. Their condition appeared essentially unchanged after 24 hours. The rats appeared normal within 48 hours. No unscheduled deaths occurred in this group. Animals receiving 1000
Gross pathology:
No remarkable gross pathological findings were observed.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
harmful
Remarks:
Migrated information Criteria used for interpretation of results: EU
Conclusions:
The LD50 of ATBS at 14 days in the rat was calculated to be 1830 mg/kg bw (Confidence limits = 990-3900).
