Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male/female
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
>= 2 000 mg/kg bw
Based on:
test mat.
Remarks on result:
other: No mortality occured.
Mortality:
No mortality occured.
Clinical signs:
other: No clinical signs of toxicity occurred. Signs of dermal irritation were observed. Erythema grade 1 was observed on 10/10 animals on day 4 which was fully reversed on day 5 on all animals. Eschar formation was observed from day 4 to day 8 and desquamation
Gross pathology:
Upon gross pathology hernia (liver) into the diaphragm was observed in one female. This incidental finding is not considered to be treatment related.
