Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The acute oral toxicity of Cetiol R was tested in an approximate manner on 5 male and 5 female rats. A quantity of 2000 mg of the test substance/kg bodyweight in a 2 % aqueous carboxymethyl cellulose preparation (w/w) was administered to the test animals on one single occasion by gavage. After
treatment the animals were observed over a period of 14 days.
GLP compliance:
no
Test type:
standard acute method
Limit test:
yes
