Six week old female BDF1 mice were administered the n-butylester of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) by gastric intubation at dosages ranging from 0 to 200 mg/kg (2,4-D content) in the acute studies and 0 to 100 mg/kg in the subacute studies.

Daily administration of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid-n-butyl ester to rats (2,4-D ester, 150 mg/kg/day SC) initially produced depressions in photocell locomotor activity and increases in landing foot splay. Maximal tolerance developed to these effects following ten days of repeated exposure. By themselves
