- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY: No mortality or test related toxicity was observed throughout the study excepting slight conjunctivitis in one animal of control and two animals of Group 2 (5 mg/kg/day) animals. This was attributed to the continuous restraint which prevented the animals from grooming themselves.
The collars of one control animal, one Group 2 (5 mg/kg/day) animal and one Group 3 (200 mg/kg/day) animal were removed temporarily because of sores on the necks. Some animals removed their collars overnight and they were collared again the next day.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN: No treatment related changes in body weight and body weight gain were observed during the study.
HAEMATOLOGY: Statistically significant increases in the WBC values were noted in the Group 3 (200 mg/kg/day) animals. In addition, there was an increase in platelet values from baseline to necropsy of the Group 2 (5 mg/kg/day) animals. The changes in WBC of the Group 3 animals were attributed to the chronic stress of collaring and not considered to be test substance related. The significant increase in platelet values of Group 2 animals were a result of low baseline values.
ORGAN WEIGHTS: No test related biologically significant changes were noted in the absolute and relative liver, kidney and adrenal weight determinations.
GROSS & HISTO PATHOLOGY (NON-NEOPLASTIC):
Treated skin on the back of rabbits in both the treated groups had a dry hair coat with an accumulation of test material on the surface at necropsy. Except the treatment site skin, no test related gross effects were observed. Histopathological examinations revealed minimal acanthosis and hyperkeratosis in the treatment sites skin of all treated groups. The incidence and severity were similar in both groups. Incidental non treatment related histopathological changes were noted in several other tissues such as brain, liver, kidney, prostate and pancreas. However, these were considered to be incidental, and not treatment related.
OTHER FINDINGS: Local Dermal Reactions:
Treatment of animals with 0.25% test material (5 mg/kg/day) in 30/70% ethanol/water produced moderate or slight erythema, slight edema, slight desquamation and slight fissuring. At 10% (200 mg/kg/day), moderate erythema, slight edema, slight desquamation and slight fissuring were produced.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Dermal application of Stearamidopropyldimethyl amine (SAPDMA) to hair clipped skin of New Zealand White rabbits at concentrations of 0 (distilled water), 0.25 and 10% w/v of the test substance in 30%/70% ethanol/water (equivalent to 0, 5 and 200 mg/kg bw/day) for 13 weeks revealed a systemic NOAEL of ≥10% w/v (equivalent to 200 mg/kg bw/day).
- Executive summary:
The subchronic toxicity study of Stearamidopropyldimethyl amine (SAPDMA) was performed following methods comparable to the OECD Guideline 411 (Subchronic Dermal Toxicity: 90-Day Study).
Male and female New Zealand White rabbits, obtained from Hazleton Research Animals were used in the study. The body weight range of animals at study initiation was 1970 – 2593 g. Animals were acclimated to laboratory conditions for a period of 7 days prior to test initiation.
Test solutions were prepared fresh weekly in distilled, 30%/70% ethanol/water for each group. Post acclimation, animals were randomized into treatment/control groups (each consisting of 5 animals/sex).
The test solution was applied to intact skin of rabbits once daily, 5 days/week for thirteen consecutive weeks at the following dose levels:
Group 1(Control): Distilled water
Group 2: 0.25% w/v in 30%/70% ethanol/water (equivalent to 5 mg/kg/day)
Group 3: 10% w/v in 30%/70% ethanol/water (equivalent to 200 mg/kg/day)
All animals (test and control) were dosed at a constant dosage volume of 2 mL/kg/day
Appropriate concentration of test material was applied evenly on the back of each animal, from shoulder to rump (approximately 15 cm wide) using a syringe.
Animals were observed for gross toxicity daily. The skin at the treatment sites was graded prior to each day’s treatment. Body weights were taken prior to initiation and then weekly until termination. Blood was taken prior to initiation and at termination for hematological examinations. After treatment, animals were sacrificed by an IV overdose of sodium pentobarbital. Adrenals, kidneys and liver were dissected free of fat and weighed. Tissue samples (including treated skin samples) were collected for histological examinations.
No mortality or test related gross toxicity was observed throughout the study except slight conjunctivitis in one control animal and two Group 2 (5 mg/kg/day) animals. This was attributed to the continuous restraint which prevented the animals from grooming themselves. The collars of one control animal, one Group 2 (5 mg/kg/day) animal and one Group 3 (200 mg/kg/day) animal were removed temporarily because of sores on the necks. Some animals removed their collars overnight and they were collared again the next day.
Treatment of animals with 0.25% test material (5 mg/kg/day) in 30/70% ethanol/water produced moderate or slight erythema, slight edema, slight desquamation and slight fissuring. At 10% (200 mg/kg/day), moderate erythema, slight edema, slight desquamation and slight fissuring were produced. No treatment related changes in body weight and body weight gain were observed during the study. No test related biologically significant changes were noted in the absolute and relative liver, kidney and adrenal weight determinations.
Statistically significant increases in the WBC values were noted in the Group 3 (200 mg/kg/day) animals. In addition, there was an increase in platelet values from baseline to necropsy of the Group 2 (5 mg/kg/day) animals. The changes in WBC of the Group 3 animals was attributed to the chronic stress of collaring and not considered to be test substance related. The significant increase in platelet values of Group 2 animals were a result of low baseline values.
Treated skin on the backs of rabbits in both treated groups had a dry hair coat with an accumulation of test material on the surface at necropsy. Histopathological examinations revealed minimal acanthosis and hyperkeratosis at the treatment sites of all treated groups. The incidence and severity were similar in both groups. Incidental non treatment related histopathological changes were noted in several other tissues such as brain, liver, kidney, prostate and pancreas. However, these were considered to be incidental, and not treatment related.
Based on above it can be concluded that, no systemic toxicity associated with the sub chronic percutaneous exposure to test material was observed at any dose levels.
Dermal application of Stearamidopropyldimethyl amine (SAPDMA) to hair clipped skin of New Zealand White rabbits at concentrations of 0 (distilled water), 0.25 and 10% w/v of the test substance in 30%/70% ethanol/water (equivalent to 0, 5 and 200 mg/kg bw/day)for 13 weeks revealed a systemic NOAEL of ≥10% w/v (equivalent to 200 mg/kg bw/day).
