hydrolyses rapidly to methanol and sodium hydroxide, in fact the hydrolysis<br />
products have been tested.<br />
Result : MORTALITY:<br />
Dose [mg/kg bw] Mortality<br />
2000 8/10<br />
1587 2/10<br />
1260 1/10<br />
1000 1/10<br />
LD50 males: 1844 mg/kg bw<br />
LD50 females: 1682 mg/kg bw<br />
LD50 combined: 1687 mg/kg bw<br />
- Time of death: most deaths occurred between days 1 and 6 after<br />
treatment.<br />
CLINICAL SIGNS:<br />
All animals: hunched posture, pilo-erection, decreased respiration rate (1 to<br />
4 h after dosing).<br />
Some of the symptoms were observed up to days 6 to 9 in surviving<br />
animals of the 1587 mg/kg bw group and up to day 11 in those of the high<br />
dose group.<br />
Additional symptoms at 1587 mg/kg bw: lethargy, ptosis pallor of the<br />
extremities, red/brown staining around the snout, emaciation (females,<br />
from day 6).<br />
Body weights: In most of the animals body weight gain was noted. Isolated<br />
cases of body weight loss or reduced bw gain were reported.<br />
NECROPSY FINDINGS:<br />
Common abnormalities of animals that died during the study:<br />
red lungs, pale or dark or patchy pallor of livers.<br />
At 1587 and 2000 mg/kg bw: severe haemorrhage and rugae of the<br />
glandular gastric epithelium. Occasional adherence of stomach to the liver.<br />
In the surviving animals killed at termination occasional findings were white<br />
foci in the non-glandular gastric epithelium and adherence of the stomach<br />
to the liver.<br />
