Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
TEST ANIMALS
- 12 Females (nulliparous and non-pregnant)
- Age: 9-10 weeks old.
- Housing: Three animals were housed in standard polycarbonate cage (size: L 430 x B 280 x H 210 mm) with stainless steel mesh top grill having facilities for holding pelleted feed and drinking water in water bottle fitted with stainless steel sipper tube. Clean sterilized corn
cob was provided as bedding material.
- Diet: Altromin Maintenance Diet for rats and mice manufactured by Altromin Spezialfutter GmbH & Co. KGAd libitum.
- Water: Ad libitum. Deep bore-well water passed through reverse osmosis unit was provided in plastic water bottles with stainless steel sipper tubes.
- Acclimatization: Healthy young adult animals used for Step-I, Step-I confirmation, Step-II and Step- II confirmation were acclimatized for five, seven, nine and twelve days respectively to laboratory condition prior to treatment and were observed for clinical signs once daily. Veterinary examination of all the animals was performed on the day of receipt.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
- Temperature: 19,8ºC to 22,9ºC
- Humidity: 45 to 65%
- Air changes: 12 to 15 air changes/hour
- Light hours: 12 hours light and 12 hours darkness.

Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
oral: gavage
Vehicle:
other: Distilled water. The test item is soluble in distilled water as evidenced by the in-house solubility/suspendibility test.
Details on oral exposure:

DOSAGE PREPARATION: The required quantity of test item was weighed, grind well using mortar and pestle by adding little volume of vehicle and transferred into the measuring cylinder. Again a small quantity of vehicle was added to mortar, mixed well and transferred into the measuring cylinder. The rinsing procedure was repeated to ensure complete transfer of the test item formulation into a measuring cylinder. Finally, the volume was added to the required mark to get a desired concentration.

DOSAGE ADMINSTRATION: by gavage, in a single dose
Doses:
Step 1: 300 mg/kg bw
Step 2: 2000 mg/kg bw
No. of animals per sex per dose:
Step 1 (300 mg/kg bw): 3 animal
Step 1 confirmation (300 mg/kg bw): 3 animals.
Step 2 (2000 mg/kg bw): 3 animal
Step 2 confirmation (2000 mg/kg bw): 3 animals.
Details on study design:
- Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: All the animals were observed for clinical signs of toxicity and mortality at 20 to 30 mins, 1 hr (±10 mins), 2 hrs (±10 mins), 3 hrs (±10 mins) and 4 hrs (±10 mins) post dosing on day 1 and once daily thereafter for clinical signs of toxicity and twice daily for mortality during the 14 days observation period.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: yes.
- Clinical signs including body weight: included changes in skin, fur, eyes and mucous membranes and also respiratory, circulatory, autonomic and central nervous systems and somatomotor activity and behaviour pattern
