Description (incidence and severity):
at 1000 mk/kg/day group
Gross pathological findings:
effects observed, treatment-related
Description (incidence and severity):
at 1000 mk/kg/day group
Details on results:
Clinicalobservations:
No deaths occurred at any dose.
At the dose of 50 mg/kg/day, none of the examinations performed revealed any change attributable to treatment.
At the dose of 250 mg/kg/day, slight depression in body weight was observed in both sexes.
At the dose of 1000 mg/kg/day, transient salivation was the only clinical change observed in both sexes starting within 15 minutes of the test
article administration. Body weight appeared slightly affected (retarted growth).

Laboratoryfindings:
At the hematological examination and blood chemistry tests no treatment-related variations were found. At the urinalysis the only change noted was an increases in frequency of positive findings of urinal bililrubin in the males of the 1000 mk/kg/day group

Effects in organs:
Post-mortem examinations showed that the test product induced slight changes only in the stomach (degenerative foci of the gastric non glandular mucosa) indicative of slilght irritative properties of the test article on the stomach when administered at the dose of 1000 mg/kg/day.

Additional information

Justification for classification or non-classification

Based on the results of the test performed according to OECD 407, the tested substance could be considered as not toxic for repeated dose oral exposure.
