Administration / exposure

Route of administration:

oral: gavage

Vehicle:

CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose)

Details on oral exposure:

Animals have been fsted before prior to substance administration by withholding food overnight. They received by gavage, according to the bodyweight, the product diluted with CMC (carboxymethyl cellulose) at 0.5 % (cooper batch F16539) and homogenised with mortar, at the single dose of 2000 mg/kg under a constant volume of 10 mL/kg. The administrated preparation was kept up under magnetic stirring during the treaments.

Doses:

2000 mg/kg body weight

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5

Control animals:

no

Details on study design:

14 days after the exposure, rats were sacrified after barbituric anaesthesia, then autopsied. all abnormailities were recorded.

Executive summary:

The aim of this study was to assess the toxicity of the test item UG after a single oral exoposure of 2 000mg/kg body weight.

The rats were observed up to 14 days after the oral dose.

No mortality occured, no clinical sign was observed, individual growth weight of the rats remain normal and regular.

Effects on organs: did not show any visible organic or tissular lesions

Lethal Dose 0% (LD0) of the test substance is higher than 2000 mg/kg body weight.

According to the 67/548/EEC directive, the test substance is unclassified among the substances dangerous if swallowed
