  • Title: Effects of repeated oral doses of Dikamin D (2,4-D-amine Na) on rats.
    Author: Várnagy L, Somlyay I, Budai P, Varga T.
    Journal: Acta Vet Hung; 1995; 43(2-3):355-8. PubMed ID: 7491875.
    Abstract:
    The toxic effects of repeated, increasing oral doses of Dikamin D (72% 2,4-D-amine Na), a broad leave herbicide product used world-wide, were evaluated on rats by the method of Lim et al. (1961). A comparison of the determined acute oral LD50 and the calculated subchronic oral LD50 values revealed a definite tolerance of the experimental animals to the test compound. This finding indicates that repeated oral treatment is capable of increasing the test animal's metabolizing capacity, which accounts for the development of tolerance.
