- Details on inhalation exposure:
- The test item formulation was aerosolised using a stainless steel concentric jet nebuliser (TSE Systems GmbH, Bad Homburg, Germany) located at the top of the exposure chamber. The rate of formulation use was controlled by a syringe pump. Compressed air was supplied by means of an oil-free compressor passed through a suitable filter system prior to introduction to the nebuliser.
The animals were exposed, nose-only, to an atmosphere of the test item using a TSE Rodent Exposure System (TSE Systems GmbH, Bad Homburg, Germany). This system comprised of 2 concentric anodised aluminium chambers and a computer control system incorporating pressure detectors and mass flow controllers.
Fresh aerosol from the generation system was constantly supplied to the inner plenum (distribution chamber) of the exposure system from where, under positive pressure, it was distributed to the individual exposure ports. The animals were held in polycarbonate restraint tubes located around the chamber which allowed only the animal’s nares to enter the exposure port. After passing through the animal’s breathing zone, used aerosol entered the outer cylinder from where it was exhausted through a suitable filter system. Atmosphere generation was therefore dynamic.
Airflows and relative pressures within the system were constantly monitored and controlled by the computer system thus ensuring a uniform distribution and constant flow of fresh aerosol to each exposure port (breathing zone). The flow of air through each port was at least 0.7 L/min. This flow rate was considered adequate to minimise re-breathing of the test atmosphere as it is about twice the respiratory minute volume of a rat.
Homogeneity of the test atmosphere within the test chamber and amongst the exposure ports was not specifically determined during this study. However, chambers of this design have been fully validated and have shown to produce evenly distributed atmospheres in the animals’ breathing zones (Pauluhn, 1994).
Each rat was individually held in a tapered, polycarbonate restraining tube fitted onto a single tier of the exposure chamber. Only the nose of each animal was exposed to the test atmosphere.
Following an equilibration period of at least the theoretical chamber equilibration time (T99) (Silver, 1946), a main group of 10 rats (5 male and 5 female) was exposed to the mean achieved concentration for a period 4 hours.
Prior to atmosphere generation, the non-volatile component of the test material was determined by adding a small, known amount of the material to glass fibre filters (Type GF/C, Whatman, Germany). The filters were then dried, at atmospheric pressure, in a desiccator at room temperature for at least 24 hours and weighed again. The difference in the two weights was taken as the volatile content of the test material and the non-volatile component was calculated as a percentage. The mean non-volatile content of the batch used for the animals' exposure was found to be 96.75% (n = 9) with a standard deviation 0.26%.
The test atmosphere was sampled at regular intervals during the exposure period. Samples were taken from an unoccupied exposure port (representing the animal’s breathing zone) by pulling a suitable, known volume of test atmosphere through weighed GF10 glass fibre filters (Type GF10, Whatman, Germany). The difference in the pre and post sampling weights, divided by the volume of atmosphere sampled, was equal to the actual achieved test atmosphere concentration.
After sampling, the filters were dried (under the same conditions as those previously described) and weighed again 24 hours later. The difference in the pre and post sampling weights, divided by the volume of atmosphere sampled, was the chamber concentration in terms of non-volatile component.
Based on the results of the preliminary work, these figures were adjusted to obtain a true figure for the test material concentration in the test atmospheres.
The nominal concentration was calculated by dividing the mass of test material disseminated into the chamber by the total volume of air that went through the chamber during the same period.
The particle size of the test atmosphere was determined three times during the exposure period using a 7-stage impactor of Mercer style (TSE Systems GmbH, Bad Homburg, Germany). Samples were taken from an unoccupied exposure port (representing the animal’s breathing zone) - Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
- yes
- Duration of exposure:
- 4 h
- Concentrations:
- 4.93 mg/L for the sighting study and 5.12 mg/L for the main study
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 4 rats (2 male and 2 female) for the sighting study
10 rats (5 male and 5 female) for the main study - Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- All animals were observed individually at hourly intervals during exposure, as soon as possible following removal from restrains at the end of exposure, 1 hour after exposure and twice daily for 14 days thereafter. Particular attention was directed to observation of tremors, convulsions, salivation, diarrhoea, lethargy, sleep and coma.
Individual bodyweights were recorded prior to treatment on the day of exposure (Day 0) and on Days 1, 3, 7 and 14 or at death.
All animals were subjected to macroscopic examination. All animals were exsanguinated under pentobarbital anaesthesia (Euthanimal 40% injection). After examination of the external appearance, the thoracic and abdominal cavities were opened and the appearance of the tissues and organs were observed. Any gross macroscopic changes were recorded. Special attention was given to the respiratory tract for macroscopic signs of irritancy or local toxicity.
Results and discussion
- Preliminary study:
- In sighting, slight laboured respiration, noisy respiration (slight to moderate), slow superficial respiration, activity decreased (slight to moderate), incoordination and tremors were observed. The animals were symptom free by Day 7. Slight bodyweight loss was noted in the day of exposure. From Day 3, normal body weight gain was noted in both sexes.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 5 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- Under the experimental conditions of the study, one death occurred in a group of 10 rats exposed to 5.12 mg/L of the substance for 4 hours. The acute inhalation median lethal concentration in CRL:WI Wistar strain rats is therefore considered to be greater than 5.12 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
The study was performed to assess the acute inhalation toxicity of the test item following a 4 hour exposure at the mean achieved concentration of 5.12 mg/L to 5 male and 5 female rats. A single sighting exposure was performed prior to the main study with 2 males and 2 females at the mean achieved concentration of 4.93 mg/L.
The main study group, 10 (5 male and 5 female) CRL:WI Wistar strain rats, was exposed to the mean achieved concentration of 5.12 mg/L of test item. The animals were exposed for 4 hours using a nose-only exposure system, followed by a 14 day observation period. The day of exposure was designated Day 0. Aerosol concentrations were measured gravimetrically. The particle size distribution of the test aerosol was determined regularly during the exposure period. Clinical observations and bodyweights were recorded throughout the study and at the end of the scheduled period the animals were euthanised and subjected to a gross examination post mortem.
In sighting, slight laboured respiration, noisy respiration (slight to moderate), slow superficial respiration, activity decreased (slight to moderate), incoordination and tremors were observed. The animals were symptom free by Day 7.
In the Main Study, noisy respiration (slight to moderate), slow superficial respiration, activity decreased (slight to moderate) and tremors were recorded. The animals were symptom free from Day 6.
In the sighting, slight bodyweight loss was noted in the day of exposure. From Day 3, normal body weight gain was noted in both sexes. In the Main Study, body weight loss was recorded
in the day of exposure in both sexes. In the nine surviving animals normal body weight gain was observed from Day 3.
A single four hours nose-only exposure of test item to Crl (WI) strain rats led to the death of one female dosed exposed to the concentration of 5.12 mg/L during Main study. Dark/red discoloration of the collapsed lungs was considered to be associated with the administration of the test item.
In surviving animals subjected to the necropsy on Day 14, no macroscopic changes at concentration level of 4.93 mg/L or 5.12 mg/L were seen during Sighting exposure or Main study, respectively.
The acute inhalation median lethal concentration of CA5204A, in CRL:WI Wistar strain rats is considered to be greater than 5.12 mg/L.
