Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
Repeated dose toxicity: Oral
The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate (CAS no.: 130-14-3) is considered to be 1300 mg/kg/day.
Repeated dose toxicity: Inhalation
Sodium naphthalene-1-sulphonate (CAS No. 130-14-3) has a particle size distribution to be in the range of 150 micron to 10 micron. The normal conditions of use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be highly unlikely. Therefore this end point for repeated dose toxicity by inhalation route is considered for waiver.
Repeated dose toxicity: Dermal
The acute dermal toxicity value for Sodium naphthalene-1-sulphonate (CAS No. 130-14-3) (as provided in section 7.2.3) is >2000 mg/kg body weight. Considering this, the end point for repeated dermal toxicity is considered as waiver.

- 1. GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes, The animals were killed by exsanguination from the aorta under sodium pentobarbitone anaesthesia following an overnight period without food. At autopsy, macroscopic abnormalities were recorded and the brain, heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands and gonads were weighed.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes, samples of the brain, heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, adrenal glands and gonads and of salivary glands, pituitary, thyroid, thymus, various lymph nodes, pancreas, urinary bladder, lungs, stomach, duodenum, ileum, colon, caecum, rectum, striped muscle (hind limb), spinal cord, uterus, aortic arch and any other tissue that appeared abnormal were preserved in 10% buffered formalin. Paraffin-wax sections of these tissues were stained with haematoxylin and eosin. All tissues from the control mice and from those fed diet containing 1% Black PN were examined histologically. At the lower dose levels, the examination was confined to the liver, kidney and any tissues seen to be abnormal at autopsy.
2. GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes, At autopsy, all macroscopic abnormalities were noted and the brain, heart, liver, kidneys, spleen, stomach, small intestine, caecum and testes were weighed.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes, the brain, heart, liver, kidneys, spleen, stomach, small intestine, caecum and testes together with salivary gland, thyroid, adrenals, lymph
nodes, pancreas, pituitary, ovaries, uterus, urinary bladder, lungs, colon, rectum, spinal cord, skeletal muscle and any other tissue that appeared abnormal were preserved in 10% buffered formalin. Paraffin-wax sections of these tissues were stained with haemotoxylin and eosin. All tissues from the control mice and those fed 800 mg/Kg the test chemical were examined microscopically, while at the lower dietary levels examination was confined to the liver and kidney together with any tissue seen to be abnormal at autopsy.
3. Anatomic pathology examinations comprised organ weights, necropsy, histopathology.
GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes
Organ weights (thymus, thyroid, heart, lung, liver, spleen, kidneys, adrenals, testes,ovaries) were determined for all animals. All animals were also subjected to macroscopic inspection after necropsy.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes
Histopathological examination was carried out in 5 male and 5 female animals of the control- and the 1000 mg/kg-group. The organs looked at were:heart, lung, liver, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, pituitary, thyroid, thymus, adrenals,testes/epididymes, prostate gland, seminal vesicles, ovaries, uterus, salivary gland (head),oesophagus, stomach, intestines (duodenum, jejunum, ileum, olon), lymph nodes, bladder,
brain, eyes, aorta, trachea, skeletal muscles, bones, bone marrow). - Other examinations:
- 1. No data
2. Behavior and were weighed at 4-wk intervals throughout the study. During the first half of the study it was noticed that there was a tendency for the male mice to fight. Bite lesions of the anogenital region were particularly frequent and these were associated with obstructions of the urinary tract. To avoid further fighting, all the mice were caged individually from month 8. - Statistics:
- 1. chi-square test, Student's t test.
2. No data - Clinical signs:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. The ingestion of Black PN had no effect on the condition or behaviour of the animals.
3. No clinical signs of toxicity were seen in any group. - Mortality:
- no mortality observed
- Description (incidence):
- 1. No statistically significant differences between the number of deaths in the control mice and those given the test chemical were noted.
2. There were deaths in all groups during the study and there was no relationship between the number of deaths at any time and the dietary intake of the test chemical
3. Three mortalities (1♂, week 5, control group; 1♀, week 13, 330 mg/kg-group; 1♀, week 6, 1000 mg/kg-group) occurred intercurrently but were not substance related. - Body weight and weight changes:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. Throughout the study the body weights of mice of both sexes were similar in all groups
2. The terminal body weights and the body-weight gains were similar in all groups. - Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 3. Food consumption were the same in test and control groups.
- Food efficiency:
- not specified
- Water consumption and compound intake (if drinking water study):
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 3. Water consumption were the same in test and control groups.
- Ophthalmological findings:
- not specified
- Haematological findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. The haematological examinations revealed only inconsistent isolated changes of statistical significance. At wk 28 the haemoglobin concentrations and red blood cell counts were lower in female mice fed diet containing if 0.5 or 1.0% than in the controls. There were no comparable findings in the males. The total white cell count of the male animals fed 1.0% in the diet was higher than that of the controls at this time, but there was no comparable change in this measurement in the females, or in either sex at any other time. At wk 55, the haemoglobin concentrations of male animals fed 0.5% of the coiouring in the diet were significantly (P < 0.05) lower than the control values. However, the corresponding value at the higher dietary level was not affected and there were no differences from the control value in the females. Also at wk 55, the erythrocyte counts of females fed 1.0% were lower (P < 0.01) than those of the controls, but this finding was again isolated. There were no statistically significant differences between the control and test samples taken at wk 80.
2. No evidence of any haematological adverse effect due to the administration of the test chemical
3. Haematology results (total and differential blood count) of test animals did not differ from controls throughout the experiment. - Clinical biochemistry findings:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 3. Clinico-chemical parameters of test animals did not differ from controls throughout the experiment except for protein content in serum in females of the 1000 mg/kg-group, which was increased as compared to controls. However, the level found was within the biological variability range on record for female rats of this age and was therefore not considered substance related.
- Urinalysis findings:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. No abnormal constituents were detected in the urine from the control or treated mice.
- Behaviour (functional findings):
- not specified
- Immunological findings:
- not specified
- Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. There were only scattered differences in mean organ weights between treated and control animals. A lower brain weight in females, compared with the control value, was the only difference affecting animals fed 1%. This difference, which did not occur in the males, was only marginally significant and there was no significant difference when the weights were expressed relative to body weight By contrast, the relative brain weight of females fed 0.25% was higher than the control figure. Liver weights of female but not of male mice fed 0.25% were lower than control values, but again this was an isolated finding and there were no significant differences in relative liver weights. Kidney weights of male animals only were significantly lower than control values at the two lowest levels of treatment (0.1 and 0.25%), but a significant difference in relative kidney weights of males occurred only at the 0.5% level, at which a higher value was recorded for the treated mice. The only other significant differences occurred in the relative heart weights, which were raised in male mice fed 0.5% and in females fed 0.25%.
2. No significant differences between the organ weights or relative organ weights of the test groups and the corresponding controls.
3. Differences in organ weights, if observable at all (e.g. spleen in ♀'s), were small and not dose dependent. - Gross pathological findings:
- not specified
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 2. Distension of the bladder, frequently associated with hydroureter and hydronephosis was noted. Pus and hard protein deposits were found in the bladders of many of the mice and in a number of cases it was possible to show that an obstruction had occurred in the urethra in the region of the bulbo-urethral complex. After the male mice were put into individual cages, there was a marked reduction in the number showing this syndrome, although isolated cases of urinary retention were seen throughout the study.
3. Necropsy-findings in the animals which had died intercurrently, revealed no pathological changes attributable to the test substance. Neither did the animals which were sacrificed pursuant to protocol at the end of the study exhibit any such changes. - Neuropathological findings:
- not specified
- Histopathological findings: non-neoplastic:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. The incidence of histological findings was similar in all groups of mice, including the controls
2. No differences between treated and control mice in the incidence or severity of the lesions seen. There as an unusually high incidence of pyelonephritis and chronic inflammation of the bladder and urethra, but these lesions occurred mainly in the male mice killed because of urinary retention in the early stages of the study.
3. Histopathology did not reveal any organ change or –damage in any one of the dose groups. - Histopathological findings: neoplastic:
- not specified
- Description (incidence and severity):
- 1. Most of the tumours in the study occurred with either a comparable or a greater incidence in the control groups than in the treated mice. Several isolated tumours were identified in mice given the lower levels of the test chemical, without comparable findings in the controls or in the highest dose group. They were a mammary fibroadenoma (in a female on 0.1%), a uterine fibromyoma (0.19%) and a squamous-cell carcinoma of the skin (female, 0.5%). The only tumour found at the highest dietary level without comparable control findings was a squamous- cell carcinoma of the skin in a male mouse fed 1%.
2. Of the malignant tumours found, lymphomas and reticulum-cell neoplasms occurred in treated and control mice. In addition a splenic haemangiosarcoma and a mammary carcinoma were found in the female mice fed on the diet containing the lowest level (100 mg/Kg). A single tumour of the Harderian gland was found in a female from the group given the 1.6% level. The commonest benign tumours were pulmonary adenomas and benign cysts in the ovary, found with a similar frequency in treated and control mice. The only other tumour occurring in treated mice without a similar finding in the controls was a granulosa-cell tumour of the ovary in a mouse given 800 mg/Kg test chemical - Other effects:

- Executive summary:
Repeated dose oral toxicity studies were reviewed to determine the toxic nature of sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate (CAS no.: 130-14-3). The studies are as summarized below:
Repeated dose toxicity test were performed on mice with different concentrations of the test chemical at dose levels of 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0% (130, 325, 650, 1300 mg/kg bw/d) for 80 wk. 30 males and 30 females was used for the treatment and group of 60 mice of each sex as control. During the study period the animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, hematology, urine analysis was performed and the animals were subjected to gross and histopathology. The general condition and behaviour of the animals were observed frequently and any mouse that showed signs of ill-health was isolated, to be returned to its cage on recovery or to be killed if its condition deteriorated. The mice were weighed at the start of the experiment, at wk 3 and then at intervals of 2 wk until wk 73 of the experiment. Blood sample were taken at wk 28 and 55. At 80 wk, blood samples were collected from the aorta of all surviving mice during the autopsy. For haematology blood samples were collected and for urine sample from 6-hr period from three groups of five mice of each sex from the controls and the groups on the two highest dietary levels of Black PN. Histopathology was also conducted. The ingestion of the test chemical had no effect on the condition or behaviour and mortality of the animals. The haematological examinations revealed only inconsistent isolated changes of statistical significance. At wk 28 the haemoglobin concentrations and red blood cell counts were lower in female mice fed diet containing if 0.5 or 1.0% test chemical than in the controls. There were no comparable findings in the males. The total white cell count of the male animals fed 1.0% test chemical in the diet was higher than that of the controls at this time, but there was no comparable change in this measurement in the females, or in either sex at any other time. At wk 55, the haemoglobin concentrations of male animals fed 0.5% of the coiouring in the diet were significantly (P < 0.05) lower than the control values. However, the corresponding value at the higher dietary level was not affected and there were no differences from the control value in the females. Also at wk 55, the erythrocyte counts of females fed 1.0% test chemical were lower (P < 0.01) than those of the controls, but this finding was again isolated. There were no statistically significant differences between the control and test samples taken at wk 80. There were only scattered differences in mean organ weights between treated and control animals. A lower brain weight in females, compared with the control value, was the only difference affecting animals fed 1% the test chemical. This difference, which did not occur in the males, was only marginally significant and there was no significant difference when the weights were expressed relative to body weight By contrast, the relative brain weight of females fed 0.25% Black PN was higher than the control figure. Liver weights of female but not of male mice fed 0.25% test chemical were lower than control values, but again this was an isolated finding and there were no significant differences in relative liver weights. Kidney weights of male animals only were significantly lower than control values at the two lowest levels of treatment (0.1 and 0.25%), but a significant difference in relative kidney weights of males occurred only at the 0.5% level, at which a higher value was recorded for the treated mice. The only other significant differences occurred in the relative heart weights, which were raised in male mice fed 0.5% and in females fed 0.25% test chemical. The incidence of histological findings was similar in all groups of mice, including the controls. Most of the tumours in the study occurred with either a comparable or a greater incidence in the control groups than in the treated mice. Several isolated tumours were identified in mice given the lower levels, without comparable findings in the controls or in the highest dose group. They were a mammary fibroadenoma (in a female on 0.1%), a uterine fibromyoma (0.19%) and a squamous-cell carcinoma of the skin (female, 0.5%). The only tumour found at the highest dietary level without comparable control findings was a squamous- cell carcinoma of the skin in a male mouse fed 1%. Based on these considerations, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for the test chemical in mice is considered to be 1 % (1300 mg/kg/day).
Repeated oral toxicity of the test chemical was determined by performing a 80 weeks repeated dose toxicity study using Charles River CD mouse (male and female) at dose levels of 0, 100, 200, 400 or 800 mg/Kg (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 or 1.6% respectively) by oral diet route. The animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, body weight changes, hematology and were subjected to gross and histopathology. The feeding of the test chemical did not adversely affect the death rate within the groups, the rate of body-weight gain, the organ weights or the haematological findings. The incidence and severity of the histopathological findings were similar in treated and control mice and there was no evidence of an increased incidence of tumours in the mice given Sunset Yellow FCF. Distension of the bladder, frequently associated with hydroureter and hydronephosis was noted. Pus and hard protein deposits were found in the bladders of many of the mice and in a number of cases it was possible to show that an obstruction had occurred in the urethra in the region of the bulbo-urethral complex. After the male mice were put into individual cages, there was a marked reduction in the number showing this syndrome, although isolated cases of urinary retention were seen throughout the study. Of the malignant tumours found, lymphomas and reticulum-cell neoplasms occurred in treated and control mice. In addition a splenic haemangiosarcoma and a mammary carcinoma were found in the female mice fed on the diet containing the lowest level (100 mg/Kg). A single tumour of the Harderian gland was found in a female from the group given the 1.6% level. The commonest benign tumours were pulmonary adenomas and benign cysts in the ovary, found with a similar frequency in treated and control mice. The only other tumour occurring in treated mice without a similar finding in the controls was a granulosa-cell tumour of the ovary in a mouse given 800 mg/Kg test chemical. Thus, on the basis of above results the NOAEL (no observed adverse effect level) for the test chemical was considered to be 800 mg/kg diet.
In order to evaluate the toxicological properties of chemical substance, the test chemical was administered orally to male and female Wistar rats 7 days/week for 13 weeks. The study was conducted according to OECD guideline 408. The dosage was 0, 100, 330 and 1000 mg/kg bw, and the vehicle (5% aqueous tylose) administration group was provided as a control. Animals were examined with respect to in-life-observations (viz. mortalities and clinical signs of toxicity, body weight and food-/water consumption were recorded.), clinical pathology (viz. haematology, clinical chemistry and urinalysis) and anatomic pathology (viz. organ weights, necropsy, histopathology.). Three mortalities (1♂, week 5, control group; 1♀, week 13, 330 mg/kg-group; 1♀, week 6, 1000 mg/kg-group) occurred intercurrently but were not substance related. No clinical signs of toxicity were seen in any group. Food- and water consumption were the same in test- and control groups. Haematology results (total and differential blood count) of test animals did not differ from controls throughout the experiment. The same holds for clinico-chemical parameters, except for protein content in serum in females of the 1000 mg/kg-group, which was increased as compared to controls. However, the level found was within the biological variability range on record for female rats of this age and was therefore not considered substance related. Necropsy-findings in the animals which had died intercurrently, revealed no pathological changes attributable to the test substance. Neither did the animals which were sacrificed pursuant to protocol at the end of the study exhibit any such changes. Differences in organ weights, if observable at all (e.g. spleen in♀'s), were small and not dose dependent. Histopathology did not reveal any organ change or –damage in any one of the dose groups. Based on the above study, the toxicologically no adverse effect amount by repetitive oral administration of the test chemical for 13 weeks was observed and hence under this test condition NOAEL was considered to be1000 mg/kg bw/day.
The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate (CAS no.: 130-14-3) is considered to be 1300 mg/kg/day.

Repeated dose toxicity: Oral
Repeated dose oral toxicity studies were reviewed to determine the toxic nature of sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate (CAS no.: 130-14-3). The studies are as summarized below:
Repeated dose toxicity test were performed on mice with different concentrations of the test chemical at dose levels of 0.1, 0.25, 0.5 or 1.0% (130, 325, 650, 1300 mg/kg bw/d) for 80 wk. 30 males and 30 females was used for the treatment and group of 60 mice of each sex as control.

Kidney weights of male animals only were significantly lower than control values at the two lowest levels of treatment (0.1 and 0.25%), but a significant difference in relative kidney weights of males occurred only at the 0.5% level, at which a higher value was recorded for the treated mice.

Based on these considerations, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for the test chemical in mice is considered to be 1 % (1300 mg/kg/day).
Repeated oral toxicity of the test chemical was determined by performing a 80 weeks repeated dose toxicity study using Charles River CD mouse (male and female) at dose levels of 0, 100, 200, 400 or 800 mg/Kg (0.2, 0.4, 0.8 or 1.6% respectively) by oral diet route. The animals were observed for clinical signs, mortality, body weight changes, hematology and were subjected to gross and histopathology.

Differences in organ weights, if observable at all (e.g. spleen in♀'s), were small and not dose dependent. Histopathology did not reveal any organ change or –damage in any one of the dose groups. Based on the above study, the toxicologically no adverse effect amount by repetitive oral administration of the test chemical for 13 weeks was observed and hence under this test condition NOAEL was considered to be1000 mg/kg bw/day.
The no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) for sodium naphthalene-1-sulfonate (CAS no.: 130-14-3) is considered to be 1300 mg/kg/day.
Repeated dose toxicity: Inhalation
Sodium naphthalene-1-sulphonate (CAS No. 130-14-3) has a particle size distribution to be in the range of 150 micron to 10 micron. The normal conditions of use of this substance will not result in aerosols, particles or droplets of an inhalable size, so exposure to humans via the inhalatory route will be highly unlikely. Therefore this end point for repeated dose toxicity by inhalation route is considered for waiver.
Repeated dose toxicity: Dermal
The acute dermal toxicity value for Sodium naphthalene-1-sulphonate (CAS No. 130-14-3) (as provided in section 7.2.3) is >2000 mg/kg body weight. Considering this, the end point for repeated dermal toxicity is considered as waiver.
Based on the data available for the test chemicals and applying the weight of evidence approach, the test chemical Sodium naphthalene-1-sulphonate (CAS No. 130-14-3) is considered to be non-toxic upon repeated exposure by oral route as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the data available for the test chemicals and applying the weight of evidence approach, the test chemical Sodium naphthalene-1-sulphonate (CAS No. 130-14-3) is considered to be non-toxic upon repeated exposure by oral route as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
