Young male Sprague-Dawley rats (68 days old) were given a single dose (5 g/kg body weight (BW)) of Sylgard 184 encapsulating resin intragastrically (IG), and young female Swiss-Webster mice (87 days old) were given a single dose (5 g/kg BW) IG, or a dose (1 g/kg BW) IG on each of 5 consecutive days, of Sylgard 184 encapsulating resin. All animals were then maintained for the rest of their lives and autopsied at death.
