In order to examine the toxicity of magnesium chloride hexahydrate, four groups of 10 male and 10 female F344 rats received the compound by dietary supplementation at 2.5, 0.5, 0.1 or 0% for 90 days. No treatment-related death was observed during the study. Transient soft stool and sustained increase in water consumption were observed both in males and females of the 2.5% group and slight reduction in body weight gain was noted in the high-dose males. There were no toxic changes in food consumption, organ weights, hematology and biochemistry, and histopathological examinations in any treated-groups. Based on these results, the no-observed-adverse-effect-level was estimated to be 0.5%, and 2.5% is considered to be appropriate as highest dose for a 2-year carcinogenicity study.
