SYNOPSIS Based upon the data obtained, the acute oral LD^Q values and 95% confidence limits were calculated to be as follows: Male Rats: 680 (399 - 1157) mg/kg. Female Rats: 430 (295 - 626) mg/kg. Combined Male and Female Rats: 540 (389 - 749) mg/kg. 137-091 000040 International Research and Development Corporation Page 2 11. TEST MATERIAL The test material was received from the 3M Company, St. Paul, Minne sota ou October 24, 1977. It was identified as "Fluorad FIuorochemical FC-143, 3M Stock No. 98-0211-0008-0, Lot 340" and was received as a white powder. 137-091 000041 International Research and Development Corporation Page 3 III. METHOD Twenty-five male and 25 female rats of the Charles River CD strain (obtained from Charles River Breeding Laboratories, Inc., Portage, Mich igan), weighing from 180 to 221 grams, were used for this study. The rats were housed by sex in groups of 5 rats per cage, in hanging wiremesh cages in temperature and humidity controlled quarters. They were maintained in accordance with the recommendations contained in H.E.W. Publication No. 74-23 (N.I.H.) entitled "Guide for the Care and Use of Laboratory Animals". Water and Purina Laboratory Chow were available ad libitum, except for an overnight period immediately preceding oral administration during which food, but not water, was withheld. The test material was administered orally by gavage as an emulsion"^ in 40% acetone/60% corn oil at the following dosage levels to male and female rats: 100, 215, 464, 1000 and 2150 mg/kg. Five rats of each sex were used at each dosage level. Volumes of 10 ml/kg of body weight were administered at all dosage levels. All rats were observed for mortality and pharmacotoxic signs during the first four hours after dosing, at 24 hours and daily thereafter for a total of 14 days. Body weights were recorded immediately prior to dosing (control weight) and at 7 and 14 days. All rats which died on study were subjected to gross necropsy examination as were all survivors at the end of the 14 day observation period. 137-091 C00042 International Research and Development Corporation Page 4 IV.
