B6C3F1 mice were fed DDVP (94% purity) daily in the diet at 1000 and 2000 ppm for 2 weeks, and 300 and 600 ppm, respectively, from weeks 3 to 80 because of toxicity (tremors, rough coat, and diarrhea) with the initial doses (NCI, 1977b). The NOEL for cholinergic signs in 2 weeks was 1000 ppm (150 mg/kg-day). 29
