Examinations
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- MORTALITY / VIABILITY: Observations for mortality/viability were recorded twice daily.
GENERAL CAGESIDE OBSERVATIONS (DAILY): The animals were observed for clinical signs once before commencement of administration; twice daily on days 1-3; as well as once daily on days 4-28, and once daily during days 29-42 (recovery).
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS (WEEKLY): The animals were observed in their home cages, outside their home cages in a standard arena and in the hand. These observations were performed in random sequence once before commencement of administration and once weekly (weeks 1-3) thereafter.
FOOD CONSUMPTION: The food consumption was recorded once during the pretest period and weekly thereafter.
BODY WEIGHTS: Body weights were recorded weekly during pretest, treatment and recovery and before necropsy.
FUNCTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL BATTERY: During week 4, relevant parameters from a modified Irwin screen test were evaluated in all animals. - Sacrifice and pathology:
- PATHOLOGY AND NECROPSY
After 4 and 6 weeks. All animals were weighed and necropsied. Descriptions of all macroscopic abnormalities were recorded. Necropsies were performed by experienced prosectors supervised by an experienced veterinary pathologist. All animals surviving to scheduled necropsy were anesthesized by intraperitoneal injection of sodium pentobarbitone and killed by exsanguination. - Other examinations:
- CLINICAL LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS
Blood samples for hematology and clinical biochemistry were collected from all animals under light anesthesia. The animals were fasted in metabolism cages for approximately 18 hours before blood sampling but allowed access to water ad libitum. Blood samples were collected early in the working day to reduce biological variation caused by circadian rhythms. Blood samples were drawn from the retro-orbital plexus using a micro-hematocrit glass capillary tube. Urine was collected during the 18-hour fasting period into a specimen vial. - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyze grip strength, locomotor activity, body weights, organ weights and all ratios, as well as clinical laboratory data:
The Dunnett-test (many to one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied if the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
The Steel-test (many-one rank test) was applied instead of the Dunnett-test when the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
Student’s T-Test was applied to locomotor activity and grip strength.
Fisher's exact-test was applied to macroscopic findings.

- Details on results:
- DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS (WEEKLY)
No test article-related abnormalities were noted during weekly observation (weeks 1-3).
FUNCTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL BATTERY
No test article-related differences to the control animals were noted during the functional observational battery (week 4).
Grip Strength
The mean fore- and hindlimb grip strength of all test article-treated animals compared favorably with those of the control animals.
Locomotor Activity
The mean locomotor activity of the males and females treated with 1000 mg/kg/day was significantly (p<0.05) less than that of the controls. Although the differences were slight and no clear dose-response relationship was seen, a relationship with the test article could not be eliminated.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the test results, 200 mg/kg body weight/day was established as the no-observed-effect-level (NOEL) and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day as the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL).
- Executive summary:
Oral administration of FAT 41’029/A to Wistar rats at doses of 50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg/day, for 28 days resulted in no deaths, no test article-related clinical signs (following daily and weekly observation), no effects upon the parameters of the functional observation battery (including grip strength), no changes in body weight and food consumption, and no effects upon hematology or clinical biochemistry parameters, or organ weights. No test article-related macroscopic or microscopic changes were evident at necropsy.
Test article-related changes included slightly decreased locomotor activity at 1000 mg/kg/day, only.
Based on the results of this study, 200 mg/kg body weight/day was established as the no-observed-effect-level (NOEL) and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day as the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL).
