Results and discussion

Preliminary study:
Experiments 1 and 2 (300 mg/kg bodyweight): mucous stool observed in 1 and 2 animals in experiments 1 and 2 respectively at 1 or 4 hours after dosing. Soiled periproctal regoin in 2 animals in Experiments 1 at 2 hrs after dosing or on day following administration. The findings disappeared by 2 days after administration.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The LD50 cut off value of MTF was estimated to be 1000 mg/kg under the conditions of this study since death occurred in 2 animals at 2000 mg/kg.
