The ALD was defined as the lowest dose administered which caused death either on the day of dosing or within 14 days post exposure. This study was conducted according to the applicable EPA Good Laboratory Practice Regulations. Areas of noncompliance are documented in the study records. No deviations existed that significantly affected the validity of the study. MATERIALS AND METHODS A. Animal Husbandry Male Cr1:CD*BR rats, approximately 7 weeks old. were received from Charles River Breeding Laboratories, Raleigh, North Carolina. Rats were housed singly in suspended, stainless steel, wire-mesh cages. Each rat was assigned a unique identification number which was recorded on a card affixed to the cage. Purina Certified Rodent Chow #5002 and water were available ad libitum. Rats were quarantined, weighed, and observed for general health for approximately one week prior to testing. Animal rooms were maintained on a timer-controlled, 12-hour light/12-hour dark cycle. Environmental conditions of the rooms were targeted for a temperature of 23 + 2C and relative humidity of 50 ^ 101. Excursions outside these ranges were of small magnitude and/or'brief duration and did not adversely affect the validity of the study. B. Protocol The test material was dispersed in distilled water and administered to one rat per dose rate by intragastric intubation. Dose rates administered ranged from 2300 to 11,000 mg/kg of body weight in increments of approximately 501. Additionally, one rat was dosed at 670.mg/kg. The dosing day was test day one;.postexposure day 14 was test day 15. Following administration of the test material, rats were observed for clinical signs of toxicity. Surviving rats were weighed and observed daily until signs of toxicity subsided, and then at least 3 times per week throughout the 14-day postexposure period. Observations for mortality were made daily throughout the study. 5 " Company Sanitized. Does not contain TSCA CB8 Du Pont HLR 391-89 C.

Dosage and Mortality Data The dosage regimen and the mortality resulting over the 15-day test period are detailed below. No deaths occurred.

B. Clinical Signs The rat dosed at 11,000 mg/kg exhibited lethargic behavior approximately one hour after dosing. The rats dosed at 5000 or 7500 nig/kg had slight weight losses (4 or 51 of initial body weight) one day after dosing. No other clinical signs of toxicity were observed. CONCLUSION Under the conditions of this study, the ALD for--------B^as greater than 11,000 mg/kg of body weight. This material is considered to be very low in toxicity (ALD greater than 5000 mg/kg) when administered as a single oral dose to male rats. Comply San,.,,.,. ^. no, ,,,,,,,,,,,, TSCA CM
