- All statistical analyses compared the treatment groups with the control group with the level of significance at p < 0.05. Male to
female fetal sex ratio number of litters with anomalies and number of fetuses with anomalies were compared using the Chi square test criterion with Yates correction for 2 x 2 contingency tables and / or Fisher s exact probability test as described by Siegel to judge
significance of differences. The proportion of early and late resorbed fetuses, non-viable fetuses and post-implantation losses were compared by the Mann Whitney U-test as described by Siegel and Weil to judge significance of differences.
Mean number of corpora lutea total implantations and viable fetuses were compared by analysis of variance (one-way classification) Bartlett's test for homogeneity of variances and the appropriate t-test (for equal or unequal variances) as described by Steel and Torrie using Dunnett's multiple comparison table to judge significance of differences.
Fetal body weights were compared by analysis of variance (hierarchal classification) and t-test as described by Steel and Torrie using Dunnett's multiple comparison tables to judge significance of differences.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Chlorendic Anhydride groups were not biologically meaningful when compared to the control group. Chlorendic Anhydride is not considered teratogenic in rats in dosage levels up to and including 400 mg / kg / day.
- Executive summary:
Pregnant Charles River CD rats were used to evaluate the teratogenic potential of Chlorendic Anhydride in a study performed according to a method similar to EU Method B.31 (non GLP). The compound was administered by gastric intubation at dosage levels of 25, 100 and 400 mg/kg/day from days 6 through 15 of gestation. A control group received the vehicle corn oil at 10 ml/kg/day. During gestation the females were observed for clinical signs of effect for mortality and for changes in body weight gains. Cesarean sections were performed on gestation day 20. The number of viable and nonviable fetuses early and late resorptions corpora lutea and total implantations were recorded. The fetuses were weighed sexed and examined for external soft tissue and skeletal anomalies and variations. There were no differences in maternal body weights or changes in appearance or behavior for rats in the 25 or 100 mg/kg/day dosage group when compared to the control group. There was a slight increase in matted fur red nasal discharge and anogenital staining in the 400 mg/kg/day dosage group when compared to the control group. A slight mean body weight loss during the first 3 days of treatment and reduced mean body weight gains throughout treatment were seen for the rats in the 400 mg/kg/day dosage group when compared to the control group. Survival was 100% for all groups. There were no biologically meaningful differences in the mean number of viable fetuses total implantations corpora lutea or male to female sex ratio in any of the Chlorendic Anhydride treated groups when compared to the control group. There was an increase in the mean number of postimplantation losses in the 100 and 400 mg/kg/day dosage groups when compared to the control group however this increase was only slightly higher than the historical control mean. The number of developmental or genetic variations were comparable for all Chlorendic Anhydride dosage groups and the control group. The increase in malformations in the Chlorendic Anhydride groups were not biologically meaningful when compared to the control group. Chlorendic Anhydride is not considered teratogenic in rats in dosage levels up to and including 400 mg/kg/day.
