Results and discussion

Effect levels
Sex:
male
Dose descriptor:
LD50
Effect level:
2.97 mL/kg bw
95% CL:
>= 1.67 - <= 5.28
Remarks on result:
other: approximately 3030 mg/kg bw.
Mortality:
See table 1.
Clinical signs:
other: See table 1.
Gross pathology:
Among the survivors at 2.5 ml/kg bw, the rat with weight loss (see table 1) had pus in the lungs. No other remarkable findings in survivors. Those that died had purple colouration in the glandular stomach.
