mg/kg.  For a 10 kg dog, this corresponds to 100 mg of p
ure               Bromadiolone; that is, 2 kilos of bait 
at the dosage of               0.005%.  From 15 mg/kg on, hemorrhages b
egin to appear               starting from the third day.  They are fat
al unless we               administer an intravenous injection of Vitam
in K1 (5 mg/kg of               body weight).               Chronic 
Toxicity - Daily dosages of 0.5 mg to 1 mg/kg which               corre
sponds to 10 to 20 g of bait at the dosage of 0.005% of               a
ctive material per kilo of body weight, cause no fatal               re
action.  On the other hand, the ingestion of 200 g of bait   
            (10 mg/kg of active material) per kilo of body weight for               several days can cause mortality.  This haz
ard is unrealistic,               considering the total amount of bait 
that has to be consumed               for several days.      Cats:  
  The cat is more resistant than the dog.  The maximum tolerated       
        oral dosage (MTD) stands at 25 mg/kg of active material, which 
              represents, for an animal weighing 2 kgs., a consumpti
on of               one kilo of bait at 0.005%.      
Swine:   The tests were carried out with animals of an average weight  
             of 25 kgs.               The maximum tolerated dosag
e (MTD) for 5 days was 25 mg of               active material pe
r day, per animal; that is, 500 gms. of bait               at 0.
005% of active material.               There was no noticeable 
effect after a daily ingestion of 10               gms. of bait at 0.00
5% of active material for 45 days.               No mortality was cause
d after two treatments of five days               each, separated by an
 interval of 15 days' rest, of dosages               corresponding to 1
25 gms., 250 gms., and 500 gms. of grains               treated at 0.00
5% of active material.
