Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Five Wistar rats per sex per dose were exposed to the test substance via intraperitoneal injection. Animals were exposed to 121, 178, 261, 383, 562, 1000, 1470, 2000 mg/kg bw. After an observation period of 14 days animals were necropsied.
