Next, several tests for determining the pharmacological properties, in that acute toxicity, anti-pyretic activity, analgesic activity and anti-inflammatory activity of the present 1,3,5-substituted biuret compounds of the formula (1) were conducted and the test results are shown in Table (2). In the tests, each compounds to be tested was used as a suspension in 0.25% carboxymethylcellulose solution. Methods for testing are explained as follows:
1. Acute toxicity
The ddy strain of male mice (body weight, 20-25 g) were used as test animals. The mice were fasted overnight and the compound to be tested was administered orally. General symptom of the mouse after the administration was observed for 7 days. The lethal dose (mg/kg, body weight) of the test compound was determined in connection with the death number of mice/the number of mice tested. In Table 2, the values indicated with .DELTA. marks are 50% lethal dose, LD.sub.50 (mg/kg, body weight).
2. Anti-pyretic activity
According to the method reported by Tanabe [Folia Pharmacologia Japonica, Vol. 73, pp. 803 (1977)], the Wistar strain of male rats (150-180 g body weight) were used as test animals. The rats were fasted overnight, and 1 ml/100 g (body weight) of 10% dry-yeast suspension were subcutaneously injected on the back of the rats. Five hours after the injection, the test compound was administered orally, then the body temperature of the rat was measured time sequences. Anti-pyretic activity of the test compound was determined as the FI (febril index) by integrating pyrogenetic curve up to 4 hours after the administration of the test compound with time, and indicated as inhibitory ratio (%) shown by the following formula, ##EQU1##
3. Analgesic activity
(1) Acetic acid-induced stretching method
According to the method reported by Koster et.al., [Fed. Proc., Vol. 18, pp. 412 (1959)], the ddy strain of male mice (body weight, 20-25 g) were used as test animals. The mice were fasted overnight, 100 mg/kg body weight of the test compound was administered orally, then 1 hour after the administration, 0.2 ml of 0.7% acetic acid solution was injected intraperitoneally. The acetic acid-induced stretching symptom of mouse was observed. Analgesic activity of the test compound was calculated as the inhibitory ratio (%). In Table 2, the values in parentheses show the data obtained from the test by using the dosage other than 100 mg/kg body weight. Further, the values indicated with .DELTA. marks show 50% effective dose, ED.sub.50 (mg/kg body weight).
(2) Haffner method
According to the modified method reported by Fujimura et.al., [Bulletin of the Institute for Chemical Research, Kyoto University, No. 25, pp. 36 (1951)], the ddy strain of male mice (body weight, 20-25 g) were used as test animals. The mice were fasted overnight, 100 mg/kg body weight of the test compound was administered orally, then 45 minutes after the administration, the threshhold amount (1.5-2.5 mg/kg body weight) of morphine hydrochloride was injected subcutaneously. Then 1-hour pain reaction of the mouse caused by a clamp was observed. Analgesic activity of the test compound was calculated as the inhibitory ratio (%). In Table 2, the values in parentheses show the data obtained from the test by using the dosage other than 100 mg/kg body weight. Further, the values indicated with .DELTA. marks show 50% effective dose, ED.sub.50 (mg/kg body weight).
4. Anti-inflammatory activity
According to the method of acute carrageenin-induced inflammatory test [Folia Pharmacologia Japonica, Vol. 56, pp. 575 (1960)], the Wistar strain of male rats (body weight, 150-180 g) were used as test animals. The rats were fasted overnight, 100 mg/kg body weight of the test compound was administered orally, then 1 hour after the administration, 0.1 ml of 1% carrageenin solution, as the inflammation inducing agent, was injected subcutaneously to the hindpaw of the rat and the volume of the hindpaw was measured at time sequences. Anti-inflammatory activity of the test compound was calculated as inflammation inhibitory ratio (%) at 3 hours after the injection of inflammation inducing agent.
