There were no mortalities and clinical signs at all dose levels. The body weights were were unaffected by the treatment, while the food consumption was lower at 1000 mg/kg bw/d in both sexes. There were no ocular and neurological abnormalities at all the dose levels. Hematological inverstigations revealed increased total leucocyte count, neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes in females at 250 mg/kg bw/d and 1000 mg/kg bw/d in both sexes which was reversible after 28 days recovery period. In addition, at 1000 mg/kg bw/d the reticulocyte counts were decreased. Coagulation and urine parameters were unaffected at all doses. the clinical chemistry evaluation revealed increased ALP activity in females at 205 mg/kg bw/d and increased ALP, AST, triglcerides concentration, decreased total protein and globuline in both sexes at 1000 mg/kg bw/d. The changes in clinical chemistry were reversible after 28 days recovery period. At 1000 mg/kg bw/d the terminal fasting body weight in females was lower, relative weight of liver was increased in both sexes, the absolute weight of epididymides was decreased and hypertrophy of the zona glomerulosa layer in adrenals in both sexes of 1000 mg/kg bw/d which was reversible.

Data captured outside of ProvantisTM: The statistical analysis of the experimental data was carried out using the licensed copies of SYSTAT Statistical
package Ver.12.0. All quantitative variables like neurological examinations (neuromuscular parameters, body weight and body temperature) was tested for
normality (Shapiro-Wilk test) and homogeneity of variances (Levene’s test) within the group before performing a one-factor ANOVA modeling by treatment
groups. Non-optimal (non-normal or heteroschedastic) data was transformed, before ANOVA was performed. Comparison of means between treatment groups and vehicle control group was done using Dunnett’s test when the overall treatment, ‘F’ test was found to be significant.
The data from the vehicle control group (G1) was compared with the data from the treatment groups (G2, G3 & G4).
In the case of recovery groups, data was analysed using the methods stated above. Comparison of mean between treatment recovery group(s) and control
recovery group was performed. When analysis was done outside provantis the comparison of means between the control recovery and high dose recovery group was done using two sampled ‘t’ test.
All analyses and comparisons were evaluated at the 5% (P < 0.05) level. Statistically significant differences (P < 0.05), indicated by the aforementioned tests were designated by the following symbols throughout the report:
+/-: Significantly higher (+) /lower (-) than the vehicle control group

The objective of this repeat dose (90-day) oral toxicity study was to assess the systemic toxicity potential of the test item, Leomin PN pa when administered orally by gavage to Wistar rats for a period of 90 consecutive days and to assess the reversibility of any effects following 28 days recovery period. This study may provided information on major toxic effects, target organs and an estimation of a No Observed Effect Level (NOEL) / No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL).
The test item, Leomin PN pa was suspended in vehicle [Milli-Q water] and administered to Wistar rats at the doses of 50 (low dose - G2), 250 (Mid dose - G3) and 1000 mg/kg/day (high dose - G4/G4R) at an equivolume of 10 mL/kg/day. The rats in vehicle control groups (G1/G1R) received Milli-Q water alone at an equivolume of 10 mL/kg/day. The vehicle or dose formulations were not administered to the recovery groups (G1R and G4R) for 28 days following the 90-day dosing period. The main toxicity groups consisted of 10 rats/sex/group and recovery groups consisted of 5 rats/sex/group.
The identity of the test item was provided by the study Sponsor by Report of Analysis and the test item was not authenticated at the test facility. The Leomin PN pa formulations at 2 and 125 mg/mL concentration levels in the vehicle were found to be stable for 4 days at room temperature. In this study, the dose formulations were analysed three times. The overall mean concentration of Leomin PN pa from all formulations performed were found to be within ± 15% of the claimed concentration and the relative standard deviation (%RSD) was less than 10%. Vehicle sample showed an interference peak at the retention time of the analyte and the same response was also noticed in the Diluent (blank). Based on the complexity of the analysis, the carry over is considered minimum and hence acceptable.
In this study, assessments included clinical signs, body weights, food consumption, ophthalmological examinations, neurological examinations, clinical laboratory investigations of blood and urine, gross pathology, organ weights and histopathological evaluation. Liver and adrenals were considered as target organs and were examined in the lower dose groups and recovery groups.

The oral gavage administration of the test item, Leomin PN pa at the doses of 50, 250 and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day to Wistar rats for 90 consecutive days indicated the following:
There were no mortalities and clinical signs at 50, 250 and 1000 mg/kg/day doses. There were no ocular and neurological abnormalities at all the dose levels. The body weights were unaffected by treatment, while the food consumption was lower at 1000 mg/kg/day dose in both sexes. Hematological investigations revelaed increased total leucocyte count, neutrophils, lymphocytes and monocytes in females at 250 mg/kg/day dose and 1000 mg/kg/day dose in both sexes which was reversible after 28 days recovery period. In addition at 1000 mg/kg/day dose, the reticulocyte counts were decreased. Coagulation and urine parameters were unaffected at all the doses tested. The clinical chemistry evaluation revealed, increased ALP activity in females at 250 mg/kg/day dose and increased ALP, AST, triglycerides concentration, decreased total protein, and globulin in both sexes at 1000 mg/kg/day dose. The changes in clinical chemistry parameters were reversible after 28 days recovery period. At 1000 mg/kg/day dose, the terminal fasting body weight in females was lower, relative weight of liver was increased in both sexes, the absolute weight of epididymides was decreased, and all these changes were reversible. Microscopic changes included hepatocellular hypertrophy in liver and hypertrophy of the zona glomerulosa layer in adrenals in both sexes at 1000 mg/kg/day dose which was reversible.

Justification for selection of repeated dose toxicity via oral
route - systemic effects endpoint:
The OECD 422 study performed with 1-Dodecanol was selcted as the
most relevant available repeated dose toxicity study due to its
reliability and since it provides the most sensitive NOAEL.
There is a strong evidence from structural considerations and a
metabolism study performed with Phosphoric acid 2-ethylhexyl ester in
rats that Phosphoric acid dodecyl ester is metabolised to 1-Dodecanol
and Phosphate (please refer to chapter 7.1). Phosphoric acid dodecyl
ester is supposed to be metabolised to Phosphate and 1 -Dodecanol after
entering the organism. Phosphate is known to be an endogenous compound
and food additive without reported toxic properties. Therefore, a read
across to the second metabolite, 1 -Dodecanol, was conducted in order to
estimate the toxicological properties in a combined repeated
dose/reproductive toxicity study.
Justification for selection of repeated dose toxicity inhalation -
systemic effects endpoint:
In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annexes VIII and IX, the
repeated dose toxicity study, as required in section 8.6.1 of Annex VIII
and in section 8.6.2 of Annex IX, does not need to use the inhalation
route because exposure of human via inhalation, especially in a higher
extent than via oral application as performed in the animal studies, is
considered unlikely taking into account the vapour pressure of the
substance and the physical form.

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annexes VIII and IX, the
repeated dose toxicity study, as required in section 8.6.1 of Annex VIII
and in section 8.6.2 of Annex IX, does not need to use the dermal route
because
- no systemic effects or other evidence of absorption were observed in
skin and eye irritation studies in rabbits as well as in the skin
sensitization test in guinea pigs
- due its irritant properties only local skin effects are expected to
occur; however, since the edema/erythema were reversible these are
considered to have no impact on the absorption of the test substance via
skin. Due to the combination of its polar (ionic) character and the long
extent of the alcoholic chain it is unlikely that higher amounts than
tested in a repeated oral toxicity study will be systemically available
via the skin barrier.

Repeated dose toxicity: via oral route - systemic effects (target
organ) cardiovascular / hematological: other
Justification for classification or non-classification
Due to
the most sensitive NOAEL of 1000 mg/kg bw/day derived by an OECD 408
repeated dose toxicity study in rats with phosphoric acid, dodecyl
ester, potassium salt, the registration substance does not have to be
classified regarding systemic and target organ toxicity after repeated
exposure according to the criteria laid down in the EU Classification
Labelling and Packaging Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
