Description:
Cincalok is a West Kalimantan traditional fermented food that has an opportunity to be developed into
supplement products as a source of omega 3 and astaxanthin. This study was designed to observe the
acute toxicity of Cincalok oil in female rats for its safety profile using AOT 425 program. Cincalok
oil for the acute (2000 and 5000 mg/kg) toxicity studies was administered orally according to the
OECD guidelines 425. The rat’s body and organs weight were observed then signs of toxicity were
assessed. LD50 was being determined at the end of the study. The result showed that a single dose of
Cincalok oil at 2000 or 5000 mg/kg had no lethal effect, behavioral change, a significant change in rat’s
bodyweights, or any lesion on the rat’s organs. The LD50 of Cincalok oil for oral administration was
higher than 5000 mg/kg and categorized as practically non-toxic
