- Five young. adult, male and female albino rats (approximately 8 weeks of age) of the Sprague-Dawley derived strain were used in this study. The rats were chosen by ran-dom selection from the acclimated animals. Animals selected for the study weighed be-tween 206 and 217 grams. The animals were exposed to the test article for 4 hours. Six minutes were added to the 240 minute exposure period in order to allow the test system to reach 99 percent of the desired concentration (point of equilibration). Food and water were not made available during the exposure period. During the exposure period, the animals were individually housed in wire-mesh cages. Following exposure, the animals remained in the chamber for a minimum. of six minutes. The chamber was maintained during these six minutes at the designated airflow rate of 100 L/minute using clean am-bient air only.. After the exposure, animals were again individually housed. Animals were observed twice daily and body weights were recorded periodically throughout the 14-day study period. All animals were subjected to a gross necropsy and examined for lesions and/or abnormalities.

Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- inhalation: dust
- Type of inhalation exposure:
- whole body
- Vehicle:
- other: unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on inhalation exposure:
- The exposure was performed in a 128 L acrylic (plexiglass), portable chamber designed by the FDRL scientific staff. Total airflow through the chamber was maintained at a rate of 100 L/minute using a transvector jet and monitored using a pre-standardized pressure gauge attached to the transvector jet. The test atmosphere was vented via an air treatment system constructed of a glass fiber pre-filter, Micretain HEPA filter and an activated charcoal bank. The test article was delivered into the exposure chamber by means of a NBS-II dust generator using an air inlet port, which allows the test article and incoming air to mix evenly within the chamber at the top before being drawn down over the animals.
- Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- gravimetry
- Duration of exposure:
- 4 h
- Remarks on duration:
- 6 additional minutes were chosen in order to allow the test system to reach 99 percent of the desired concentration (point of equilibration)
- Concentrations:
- Nominal Concentration: The nominal concentration of Beta Cyclodextrin was 15.4 mg/L, Which was calculated by dividing the total amount of test article utilized in milli-grams by the total volume of air in liter that passed through the chamber.
Actual Concentration: The actual chamber concentration of Beta Cyclodextrin was 4.9 mg/L of air which was determined by gravimetric analysis.
Chamber air was drawn through a pre-weighed glass fiber filter (Gelman Type A/E, 99.7% efficient at 0.3 µm) held in an open-faced holder. The change in weight of the filter was then determined (mg) and divided by the volume of chamber air sampled through the filter (L). Four samples per hour were taken and the average actual concen-tration calculated. - No. of animals per sex per dose:

Particle SizeAnalysis: Particle size analyseswereperformed once perhourusing a multijet cascade impactor (Model 02-200, In-ToxProductsAlbuquerque, NM). Stages one to seven of the impactorwerefittedwith preweighedstainless steel impaction substrates. Stage eight (final filter stage)wasfitted with a preweighed cellulose filter membrane (Gelman TypeA/Et47mm,Triacetate,99.7%efficient at 0.3µm).Chamber airwas drawn throughthe impactor at a rate of 20 L/minute and the change in weight of each collection substrate (including the filter) was subsequently determined. The mean cumulative percent of aerosol collected at each stage was determined and a lognormal distribution curve plotted. Themeanparticle size of the aerosolgenerated ,geometric standard deviation and percent of the sample (by weight) comprised of particles < 12µmin size were determined.

- Executive summary:
Five young. adult, male and female albino rats (approximately 8 weeks of age) of the Sprague-Dawley derived strain were used to evaluate the inahaltion toxicity of .beta.-cyclodextrin. The study was a limit whole body inhalation study at a nominal concentration of 15.4 mg/l and a gravimetrically measured concentration of 4.9 mg/l. It was performed to a guideline equivalent to OECD 403. The average actual concentration of Beta Cyclodextrin was 32% of the nominal concentration. Adsorption of the test article to chamber surfaces, dermal exposure to the animals and the generation of particle aggregates which do not remain suspended in the test atmosphere, contributed to this difference.. The animals were exposed to the test article for 4 hours. Six minutes were added to the 240 minute exposure period in order to allow the test system to reach 99 percent of the desired concentration (point of equilibration). Food and water were not made available during the exposure period. During the exposure period, the animals were individually housed in wire-mesh cages. Animals were observed twice daily and body weights were recorded periodically throughout the 14-day study period. All animals were subjected to a gross necropsy and examined for lesions and/or abnormalities. No mortality occurred. Nasal discharge was noted in all animals immediately following exposure. Body weight data were just slightly affected. The test article exposure did not exhibit an adverse effect upon body weight gain in males. Weight loss was recorded in one female at days 8 and 15. No lesions or abnormalities were noted during gross necropsy examination. Four-hour whole-body exposure to a dust generated from Beta Cyclodextrin at an average actual concentration of 4.9 mg/L failed to produce mortality in five male and five female Sprague-Dawley rats. The LC0 is >= 4.9 mg/l and it can be assumed that the LC50 is also > 5.0 mg/l due to lack of mortality and only slight signs of toxicity in this test.
