Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In a combined repeated dose & carcinogenicity study using the test chemical p- anisidine the No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) was found tobe at 642.857 mg/kg concentration of p-anisidine administered daily over an 18 month period.
- Executive summary:
Repeated dose toxicity test was performed on CB6F1 males and female at two different laboratories in Japan and USA. p-anisidine was mixed with feed and given to animals at two different concentrations as 321.428 and 642.857 mg/kg and observed for 18 months. After 18 months all mice were necropsied and observed histopathologically. Standard hematoxylin and Eosin-stained slides were also evaluated.
After 18 months no clinical effects were observed in male and female mice. Decrease in body weight in males and some females of low dose concentration were also observed. On gross pathology dark red spleens and small lung nodules in a few mice and no significant dose-related trends for either pulmonary or splenic tumors were observed. Some effects were also observed in control also.
