- from animal killed -at the end of study.<br />

- Necropsies were also performed on all animals found death, unless<br />

precluded in whole or in part by autolysis or cannibalization.<br />

of major tissues, major organs, and all gross lesions from animal killed at<br />

the end of study (no further details reported).<br />
