- Details on results:
- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
- there were no clinical signs associated with a toxic response to the test material.
- clear or brown coloured saliva was observed immediately after dosing in some animals from all treated groups. This was considered to be associated with oral gavage administration of a bolus dose of the test material formulated in peanut oil.
- incidental hairloss from various regions of the body (with or without scabbing) was observed in some animals from all groups
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
- during the 4-week dosing period, body weight gain in top-dose males, mid-dose males and females and low-dose males was statistically significantly reduced. The differences, particularly for the males, were more marked at the lower doses than at the high dose, and were considered to reflect lower food consumption noted for these groups. Furthermore, there was some evidence of similar differences in growth rates prior to the start of treatment. As such, the body weight differences recorded during the dosing period were considered to be unrelated to treatment.
- during the 2-week recovery period, body weight gain for top-dose males was slightly reduced but the difference was not statistically significant.
FOOD CONSUMPTION
- Cumulative food consumption in the top-dose groups were similar to control during the dosing and recovery periods. Reduced food consumption was seen in low-dose males and mid-dose females during the 4-week dosing period, and differences between control and treated groups in cumulative food consumption were considered not to be treatment-related
FOOD EFFICIENCY
- food conversion ratios were variable with no evidence of a treatment-related effect
HAEMATOLOGY
- week 5, prothrombin time, mid- and high-dose males, statistically significantly increased. These differences were minimal, did not show a relationship to dose, were present only in one sex and, therefore, were considered unrelated to treatment.
- week 5, neutrophil and platelet counts, top-dose females, statistically significantly increased. A slight numerical dose relationship was evident for the neutrophils, however all values were within the range of background data for rats of the age and strain used. These findings are therefore considered to be unrelated to treatment.
- week 7, all parameters were within accepted limits and there were no statistically significant differences between top-dose groups and vehicle control.
- remaining parameters measured, but not mentioned above, were within accepted limits and showed no evidence of a response to treatment.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
- week 5 in the main study, urea nitrogen, top-dose females, statistically significantly increased. However, this difference was minimal, present only in one sex, did not show a relationship to dose and was considered unrelated to treatment. Furthermore, the same group mean (17 mg/dl) value was recorded for both top-dose and vehicle control groups at week 7.
- week 7 in the main study, creatinine and calcium level, top-dose males, statistically significantly reduced; glucose and triglyceride levels, top-dose females, statistically significantly reduced; albumin/globulin ratio, top-dose males, statistically significantly increased. However, these differences were minimal and were present only in one sex. In addition these differences were only evident 2 weeks after the cessation of treatment. Therefore, they were considered incidental and unrelated to treatment.
- remaining parameters measured, but not mentioned above, were within accepted limits and showed no evidence of a response to treatment.
URINALYSIS
- week 5 in the main study, pH in the top-dose males was statistically significantly reduced. A mild dose relationship was evident, however the change was small, confined to one sex and all values were within the range of background data for rats of the age and strain used. For these reasons the observed differences were considered to be unrelated to treatment.
- remaining parameters measured, but not mentioned above, were within accepted limits and showed no evidence of a response to treatment.
NEUROBEHAVIOUR
- no changes considered to be indicative of neurotoxicity
ORGAN WEIGHTS
- week 5 in the main study, relative liver weight, top-dose females, statistically significantly increased. However, this difference was present only in one sex and all individual values were within the normal background range for rats of the age and strain used. This finding is therefore considered to be unrelated to treatment
- week 5 in the main study, relative spleen weight, top-dose females, were also statistically significantly increased. There was some overlap of the individual data between this test group and the controls, and in the absence of a statistically significant result for absolute organ weights the observed differences were considered to be unrelated to treatment
- week 7 in the main study, relative kidney weight, top-dose males, statistically significantly increased; relative heart weight, top-dose females, statistically significantly increased. Since these differences were only evident 2 weeks after the cessation of treatment, they were considered incidental and unrelated to treatment
- remaining organs weighed, but not mentioned above, were within accepted limits and showed no evidence of a response to treatment.
GROSS PATHOLOGY
- forestomach, brown staining on the epithelial aspect, 3/5 males and 4/5 females in the top-dose group and 1/5 females in the mid-dose group
- large intestine, dark contents, all animals in top-dose group
- these findings are considered to be pigmentation associated with the coloured nature of the test material
- recovery animals, no changes attributable to treatment
- incidence and distribution of all other findings were considered to fall within the background range of macroscopic changes.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTIC
- mesenteric lymph nodes, eosinophilic/vacuolated macrophages were seen in top-dose males (5/5) and females (5/5), p<0.01, at the end of the 4-week treatment period and after a 2-week recovery period. This change showed partial reversibility in rats allowed a 2-week recovery period. This finding is not considered an adverse response but indicates that some material was absorbed through the gastro-intestinal tract and taken up in the mesenteric lymph nodes.
- all other microscopic findings seen in rats at the end of the treatment period were considered to be incidental and of no toxicological importance
- no microscopic findings were detected which might be associated with the statistically higher relative liver weights for top-dose females; therefore this finding was considered to be incidental.
- no microscopic findings were seen in the gastrointestinal tract of any animals in this study.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In a GLP study conducted according to OECD guideline 407, no treatment-related adverse effects were seen in rats administered NB 6786-35 by gavage at up to 1000 mg/kg bw/day (the highest tested dose) for 28-days, and this dose is considered the NOAEL for this study.
- Executive summary:
In a GLP study conducted according to OECD guideline 407, groups of 5 male and 5 female Crl:CD(R) BR rats were administered NB 6786-35 (tris (dicocodithiocarbamato) tris (µ-disulphido) (µ3-thio)-triangulotrimolybdenum (IV) dicocodithiocarbamate) at 0, 15, 150 or 1000 mg/kg bw/day by oral gavage (in peanut oil) for 28 days. Additional groups of 5 rats/sex, administered 0 or 1000 mg/kg bw/day, were retained for a further 2-week recovery period.
There were no deaths reported. Clear or brown coloured saliva was seen immediately after dosing in some animals from all treated groups; this was considered to be associated with the method of dosing. Relative liver weight was statistically significantly increased in females administered 1000 mg/kg bw/day. However, this difference was present only in one sex, all individual values were within the normal background range for rats of the age and strain used, and no associated microscopic findings were detected; it is therefore considered to be unrelated to treatment.
At necropsy, brown staining was observed on the epithelial aspect of the forestomach in 3/5 males and 4/5 females treated with 1000 mg/kg bw/day and 1/5 females treated with 150 mg/kg bw/day, and dark contents were seen in the large intestine of all rats treated with 1000 mg/kg bw/day. These findings were considered to be pigmentation associated with the coloured nature of the test material. Histopathological examination revealed eosinophilic/vacuolated macrophages in the mesenteric lymph nodes of all main study rats treated with 1000 mg/kg bw/day and, to a lesser extent, in recovery rats treated similarly indicating partial reversibility. This finding is not considered an adverse response but indicates that some test material was absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and taken up in the mesenteric lymph nodes.
In conclusion, the 28-day oral no-observed-adverse-effect level (NOAEL) for NB 6786-35 in rats was 1000 mg/kg bw/day (the highest tested dose). [In view of the structural and chemical similarities, it is considered that the results of this study can be used for read-across to EC# 457-320-2.]
