Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Executive summary:
Single oral application of up to 1200 mg/kg bw to 10 male Wistar rats per dose group and observation for 14 days. 100 mg/kg bw was tolerated without mortality or clinical signs. All other animals displayed tremor, cramps. prone position and cry before death occurred: 2 -3/10 at 500 mg/kg bw up to 10/10 at the highest test dose.. LD50 is 660 mg/kg bw
