- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
The test enzyme was provided deep-frozen in a number of containers. The day before use, the required numbers of test material containers were transferred from the freezer to nominally 4ºC storage to allow them to thaw. On the day of formulation the test material containers were inverted 10 times and gently magnetically stirred. The required amount of test material was measured out and the residue returned to the freezer as quickly as practicable. The required volume of vehicle was added to the pre-measured material and gently mixed by magnetic stirring and inversion to avoid any potential damage to the protein and ensure homogeneity of the dose preparation. Formulations were retained refrigerated (2-8°C) overnight (when prepared the day before) or at ambient temperature.
VEHICLE
- Concentration in vehicle: 10, 33 and 100%, corresponding to 112, 368 and 1116 mg total organic solids (TOS) /kg bw/day.
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): constant volume 10 mL/kg body weight.
- Purity: Reverse osmosis water - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Dose samples were analysed according to GLP.
Stability of formulations at 10 and 100%, when retained for up to 24 hours at refrigerated (nominally 5°C) or ambient temperature was demonstrated b y Novozymes A/S. Samples of each formulation prepared for administration in Weeks 1, 6 and 13 of treatment were analysed for achieved concentration of the test substance. A total of 6 x 10 mL samples were taken from the middle of each formulation and all samples were frozen at approximately -20°C upon completion of sampling. Three samples from each formulation/occasion were subsequently dispatched (deep frozen on dry ice) to the Principal Investigator responsible for formulation analysis. All remaining samples were retained (at approximately -20°C) as a contingency but were discarded after finalization of the formulation analysis report since no further analysis was required. - Duration of treatment / exposure:

Results and discussion
Results of examinations
- Clinical signs:
- no effects observed
- Mortality:
- mortality observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence):
- One incidental and non-treatment related death occurred in this study. One Control female was killed for welfare reasons in Week 9 after displaying decreased activity, laboured breathing, gasping, distended abdomen and piloerect coat. The macroscopic examination indicated that the cause of the respiratory distress and abdominal distension to be the presence of gaseous distension of the stomach and intestinal tract, though the histopathological examination suggested that the condition of the animal was due to lesions reported in the kidneys (moderate pelvic dilation).
- Body weight and weight changes:
- no effects observed
- Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
- no effects observed
- Food efficiency:
- not examined
- Water consumption and compound intake (if drinking water study):
- no effects observed
- Ophthalmological findings:
- no effects observed
- Haematological findings:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- All inter-group differences from control, including those attaining statistical significance, were minor, lacked dose relationship or were confined to one sex and were therefore attributed to normal biological variation. Such differences included the small but statistically significant decrease of mean cell hemoglobin concentration in males given 100% trehalase but since the extent of the difference from controls was small and at this dose only a single animal had a marginally lower value than concurrent control and all individual values were within the background range it was attributed to normal biological variation.
In males given 33 or 100%, a statistically significant increase in monocyte counts, but this was attributable mainly to a low group mean value for controls caused by the individual values of 5/10 animals being below the background range, with almost all individual values for males at 33% (9/10 animals) or 100% (8/10 animals) trehalase being within the background range and, furthermore, the individual values that were outside the background range were within the concurrent control range. - Clinical biochemistry findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- All inter-group differences from control, including those attaining statistical significance, were minor, lacked dose-relationship or were confined to one sex and could all, therefore, be attributed to normal biological variation. Slight but statistically significant increases of plasma creatinine occurred at all doses in males, and also in females receiving 100% trehalase, batch PPT42347, but the extent of the differences from controls was small in each case and all individual values were within the background range.
There was also a slight but statistically significant decrease of potassium concentrations in females given 100% trehalase, with the majority of animals having values that were just below the background range, however those values were generally within the concurrent control range (there were many individual values for females across the groups, including controls, that had plasma potassium concentrations that were also below the background range). Consequently, and also in the absence of any other findings that were indicative of an effect on kidney function in this study, these differences were attributed to normal biological variation and were therefore not related to treatment. - Urinalysis findings:

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- It is concluded that oral administration of trehalase, batch PPT42347 to Han Wistar rats at doses up to 100% of trehalase, batch PPT42347 for 13 weeks was well-tolerated and did not cause any adverse change. The no-observed adverse-effect level (NOAEL) was therefore considered to be 100% of the trehalase, batch PPT42347 (equivalent to 1312 mg TOS/kg body weight/day).
- Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to assess the systemic toxic potential of trehalase, batch PPT42347 when administered orally by gavage to Han Wistar rats for 13 weeks. Three groups, each comprising ten males and ten females, received doses of 10, 33 or 100% of Trehalase, batch PPT42347 (equivalent to 131, 433 and 1312 mg TOS/kg bw/day). A similarly constituted control group received the vehicle (reverse osmosis water) at the same volume-dose (10 mL/kg body weight) as the treated groups.
During the study, clinical condition, detailed physical and arena observations, sensory reactivity, grip strength, motor activity, body weight, food consumption, visual water consumption, ophthalmic examination, hematology (peripheral blood), blood chemistry, organ weight, macropathology and histopathology investigations were undertaken.
There were no deaths associated with trehalase, batch PPT42347. The general appearance and behavior, sensory reactivity responses, grip strength and motor activity were not affected by treatment during the study. A control female was killed for welfare reasons in Week 9, but this was clearly an incidental death. There was no effect of treatment on body weight, food consumption or (visually assessed) water consumption. There were no treatment-related ophthalmic findings. The hematology and blood chemistry investigations during Week 13 did not identify any treatment-related findings. Organ weights were unaffected by treatment and there were no treatment-related macroscopic or histopathological findings.
It is concluded that oral administration of trehalase, batch PPT42347 to Han Wistar rats at doses up to 100% of trehalase, batch PPT42347 for 13 weeks was well-tolerated and did not cause any adverse change. The no-observed adverse-effect level (NOAEL) was therefore considered to be 100% of the trehalase, batch PPT42347 (equivalent to 1312 mg TOS/kg body weight/day).
