SUMMARY
administered ds a single oral dose by intragastric Intubation to male rats. Deaths occurred up to 5 days after dosing. Clinical signs of toxicity were observed in lethaTTy and 'nbriTethally dosed arfimaTs. Under tne conditi 6ns of this test, the ALD was 2300 mg/kg of body weight. This material is considered to be slightly toxic (ALD 500 - 5000 mg/kg) when administered as a
single oral dose.

INTRODUCTION
The purpose of this test was to determine an approximate lethal dose of to male rats. 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 noncompiiance 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;CO*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 was assigned a unique identification number which was recorded on a affixed to the cage. Purina Certified Rodent Chow^ #5002 and water available ad libitum. Rats were quarantined, weighed, and observed
rat
card
were
for
general health for approximately one week prior to testing. Animal rooms
were maintained on a timer-controned, 12-hbur light/12-hour dark cycle.
Environmental conditions of the rooms were targeted for a temperature of
23 ^ 2C and relative humidity of 501 ^ 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 suspended in Mazola corn oil and administered
to one rat per dose rate by intragastric intubation. Dose rates administered ranged from 450 to 11,000 mg/kg of body weight in increments
of approximately 501. 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.

Du Pont HLR 805-88 B. Clinical Signs
Nonlethal Doses
The only clinical sign of toxicity observed was yellow-stained perineum in the rat dosed at 3400 ing/kg 4 days after dosing. Moderate to severe weight losses (7 to 191 of initial body weight) were observed in all rats up to 4 days after dosing.
Lethal Doses
The rat dosed at 2300 ing/kg exhibited lethargic behavior, hunched
posture, limpness, dry brown nasal and oral discharges and brown-stained perineum on days 3 or 4 after dosing and was found dead 5 days after
dosing. The rats dosed at 5000 or 7500 mg/kg died before clinical signs of toxicity were apparent. The rat dosed at 11,000 mg/kg exhibited dry red oral discharge and yellow-stained perineum one day after dosing and was found dead 2 days after dosing. Severe weight losses (up to 351 of
initial body weight) were observed in most lethally dosed animals.
CONCLUSION
HHHHHBHB9 ___Under the conditions of this study, the ALD for
f------9was 2300 mg/kg of body weight. This material is considered to be
slightly toxic (ALD 500 - 5000 mg/kg) when administered as a single oral dose to male rats.
