Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Sex:
- male/female
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Effect level:
- > 2 000 mg/kg bw
- Mortality:
- None
- Clinical signs:
- other: No significant signs of toxicity in females but males showed slight toxicity following a 2000 mg/kg dose.
- Gross pathology:
- No macroscopic findings
Any other information on results incl. tables
The limit dose of 2000 mg/kg showed no mortality in male and female rats. Although only 2 animals per sex were tested, the observations do not indicate a severe toxic effect.
