- TEST ANIMALS
- Source: Harlan Laboratories, Inc.
- Age at study initiation: 8 - 11 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 176 - 217 grams
- Fasting period before study: prior to each dosing, experimentally naive rats were fasted overnight by removing the feed from their cages.
- Housing: the animals were singly housed in suspended stainless steel caging with mesh floors, which conform to the size recommendations in the most recent Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals (Natl. Res. Council, 2011). Enrichment (e.g. toy) was placed in each cage. Litter paper was placed beneneath the cage and was changed at least three times per week. Feed was replaced approximately 3 - 4 hours after dosing.
- Diet ( ad libitum, except during fasting): Harlan Teklad Global 16% Protein Rodent Diet® #2016

- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:

- Details on oral exposure:
- DOSAGE PREPARATION:
The test substance was administered as a 45% w/w mixture in distilled water. Preliminary solubility testing conducted by the laboratory indicated mixtures in excess of 45% (i.e. 50%-80%) were too viscous to be administered properly.
Individual doses were calculated based on the initial body weights, taking into account the density (determined by the laboratory) and concentration of the test mixture.
initially, a single animal received a limit dose of 5000 mg/kg. Due to mortality of this animal a Main Test was conducted. For the Main Test, the test substance was administered in sequence to the animals as can be seen in table 1 in the field "Any other information on materials and methods incl. tables" below. The decision to proceed with the next animal was based on survival of the previous animal following dosing. Dose progressions and stopping criteria were determined using a statistical program - Doses:
- 175, 550, 1750 and 5000 mg/kg
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 175 mg/kg: 1 animal
550 mg/kg: 4 animals
1750 mg/kg: 6 animals
5000 mg/kg: 4 animals - Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: individual body weights of the animals were recorded prior to test substance administration (initial) and again on Days 7 and 14 (termination) following dosing or after death. The animals were observed for mortality, signs of gross toxicity, and behavioural changes during the first several hours post-dosing and at least once daily thereafter for 14 days after doing or until death occurred.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes
Surviving rats were euthanized via CO2 inhalation at the end of the 14-day observation period. Gross necropsy were performed on all decendents and euthanized animals. Tissues and organs of the thoracic and abdominal cavities were examined. - Statistics:
- The Acute Oral Toxicity (Guideline 425) Statistical Program (Weststat, version 1.0, May 2001) was used for all data analyses including: dose progression selections, stopping criteria determinations and/or LD50 and confidence limit calculations.

No gross abnormalities were noted for this animal when necorpsied at the conclusion of the 14-day observation period.
- 550 mg/kg dose level (4 animals):
No gross abnormalities were noted for any of the animals when necropsied at the conclusion of the 14-day observation period.
- 1750 mg/kg dose level (6 animals):
Gross necropsy of the decedents revealed discolouration of the intestines and distention of the stomach and/or intestines. No gross abnormalities were noted for the euthanised animals when necropsied at the conclusion of the 14-day observation period.
- 5000 mg/kg dose level (5 animals):
Gross necropsy of the decedents revealed discolouration and/or distention of the intestines and/or stomach. no gross abnormalities were noted for the euthanised animal when necorpsied at conclusion of the 14-day observation period.
