Examinations

Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
Clinical observations performed and frequency:
- Clinical signs: Twice a day (just before and after administration)
- Body weight, Males: Twice a week
Body weight, Females: Twice a week for pre-mating and mating period, 0, 7, 14, 21st day of pregnancy and 0, 4th day of lactation period.
- Food consumption, Males: Twice a week for pre-mating period and after a mating period end.
Food consumption, Females: Twice a week for pre-mating period, 2, 9, 16, 21st day of pregnancy and 4th day of lactation period.

Hematological examinations (only for males):
Red blood cell count, white blood cell count, platelet count, hemoglobin concentration, hematocrit value, differential leukocyte counts,
protrombin time, activated partial thromboplastin time, fibrinogen, mean corpuscular volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin,
mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, reticulocyte count.

Blood chemical examinations (only for males):
Total protein, albumin, A/G ratio, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, glucose, total cholesterol, total bilirubin, triglyceride, sodium, potassium,
chloride, calcium, inorganic phosphorus, alkaline phosphatase, AST, ALT, gamma-GTP.

Urinary examinations (only for males): Urinalysis was conducted just before the termination of treatment, and the following items were examined:
Volume, specific gravity, color, pH, protein, glucose, ketone body, bilirubin, occult blood, urobilinogen, urinary sediments.


This study was conducted to examine both repeated dose toxicity and  reproductive/developmental toxicity as an OECD screening combined study
(OECD 422 test guideline).  Therefore, hematological and blood chemical examinations, and urinalysis  for females were not performed.
Sacrifice and pathology:
GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes, see below
WEIGHING OF ORGANS: Yes, see below
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes, see below

- Terminal sacrifice, Males: Killed on the day after the treatment period.
Terminal sacrifice, Females: Killed on day 4 of lactation. Females with no delivery were killed 4 days after the delivery expected date.
Females with no copulation were killed at the end of the mating period.

- Gross pathology: All rats received a full macroscopic examination  with tissue collection.

- Organs Weights: The following organs were weighed at necropsy:
Brain, pituitary, thyroids, heart, thymus, liver, spleen, adrenals, kidneys, testes, epididymides, ovaries.

- Histopathology: The following organs were microscopically observed for the control and 1000 mg/kg bw/day groups:
Brain, pituitary gland, thyroids, heart, thymus, liver, spleen, adrenals, kidneys, testes, epididymides, ovaries,

mammary gland,  bone marrow, seminal vesicle, prostate.
In addition, liver and spleen (male only) were also examined for the 30, 100 and 300 mg/kg bw/day groups.

Effect levels

Key result
Dose descriptor:
NOEL
Effect level:
>= 1 000 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
Based on:
test mat.
Sex:
male
Basis for effect level:
other: NOEL = highest dose tested. NOEL (instead of NOAEL stated by OECD SIDS) seems more appropriate, because OECD SIDS states: "No treatment related abnormality up to 1000 mg/kg bw/day in parental males."
Key result
Dose descriptor:
NOAEL
Effect level:
1 000 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
Based on:
test mat.
Sex:
female
Basis for effect level:
other: NOAEL = highest dose tested. Very slight extramedullary hematopoiesis in the liver in two parental females at 1000 mg/kg bw/day was statistically not significant, therefore not adverse.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
There were no treatment related effects in male rats up to 1000 mg/kg bw/day. The only treatment related effect in females was very slight (marginally positive) extramedullary hematopoiesis in the liver in two female animals of the high dose group (1000 mg/kg bw/day). This finding was considered not to represent an adverse effect, because it did not differ statistically significantly from controls. Therefore, for treated male animals the no observed effect level (NOEL) was estimated to be 1000 mg/kg bw/day and for treated female animals the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) was estimated to be 1000 mg/kg bw/day.
