- Dose / conc.:
- 10 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
- Dose / conc.:
- 40 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
- Dose / conc.:
- 80 mg/kg bw/day (nominal)
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 24 mated females/group
- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: The maximal appointed concentration of the dyestuff is 3%. This means a maximal external exposition of about 36 mg per man by conditions of hair coloring. Considering an assumed maximal resorption of 0.2%, 0.072 mg intake per kg of bodyweight can be calculated. Therefore the lowest dosage of 10 mg will have a sufficient high safe zone to the appointed concentration. The producing of teratogenic effects by toxic doses should be proved by the application of the higher dosages. However, as per scientific committee on consumer products (SCCP /0898/05), this way of dose selection is not according to the OECD guideline and a possible hazard is not adequately identified.
- Rationale for animal assignment: Animals were randomized by allocating 12 males and 24 females from the collective to each test group, using computerized randomization tables.
- Rationale for test system: The rat was chosen for this study because of good fertility, high reproduction rates, good response to teratogens and a great number of background information.
- Rationale for route of administration: The oral route of administration was chosen to attain higher resorption rates compared to dermal exposure.
- Dose volume: 10 mL/kg bw
- Assignment of animals: The animals were assigned into following control and treatment groups:
Vehicle control: Deionized water
Group I: 10 mg/kg bw/day
Group II: 40 mg/kg bw/day
Group III: 80 mg/kg bw/day

MATERNAL FOOD CONSUMPTION:
- Food consumption revealed no significant intergroup differences.
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS:
- No treatment-related effects in dams were noted with regard to clinical observations.
- The haircoat of all females in control and dose groups appeared smooth and brightly. Animals showed normal excretion of urine and feces and a healthy general status.
- Examinations of ears, hearing and reflexes revealed no deviations from normal findings.
MACROSCOPIC FINDINGS (Autopsy):
- No gross signs of organ alterations were found that could be attributed to treatment.
LAPAROTOMY: The results were as follows:
- Number of Fetuses: The test groups showed no significant differences concerning the mean number of fetuses per dam.
- Left - Right Intrauterine Distribution: Mean number of fetuses per dam in the left or right uteri horn was not dose related different among groups.
- Sex Ratio: There were no significant differences in the sex ratio.
- Birth position: No significant differences were determined among groups, concerning the number of fetuses in anterior or posterior position within uteri.
- Runts: There were only one runt in control group and one in Group III.
- Dead Fetuses and Life Birth Index: One fetus from Group III was found dead. The life birth index in this group was therefore slightly reduced, but this was within the normal variation range in rats.

- Number of Resorptions: Mean number of resorptions showed no significant differences in the test groups.
- Indices of Resorptions: Distinct differences between groups were not found.
- Implantations: Mean number of total implantations showed no significant differences between test groups. The number of implantations in the left uterine horn was slightly significant reduced within Group I and II females, which is an incidental finding by all means.
- Post-Implantation loss Index: No significant differences among test groups were noticed.
- Corpora lutea: Dose related intergroup differences were not observed (neither in the total number nor in the number of the left or right ovary).
- Placenta Weight: There were no significant intergroup differences.
- Weights of Gravid Uteri: Significant intergroup differences were not determined.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Administration of 1-Hydroxy-3-methyl-4-aminobenzol-sulfat to female BOR:WISW-SPF TNO rats during Day 5-15 of gestation, at dose levels of 0, 10, 40 and 80 mg/kg bw/day by oral gavage revealed a NOAEL of 80 mg/kg bw/day for maternal and developmental toxicity.
- Executive summary:
The teratology study of 1-Hydroxy-3-methyl-4-aminobenzol-sulfat was conducted following methods comparable to the OECD Guideline 414 (Prenatal Developmental Toxicity Study).
The study was designed to assess the effects of the test substance on pregnant female and on embryonic and fetal development when administered by oral gavage once daily at dose levels of 0, 10, 40 and 80 mg/kg bw/day (Dose volume: 10 mL/kg bw) from Day 5 through to Day 15 of gestation.
Female BOR:WISW-SPF TNO 14 week old rats (Source: Fa. Winkelmann, Versuchstierzucht, Borchen, Germany) weighing 166-228 g were housed in Makrolon cages. The animals were maintained under standard laboratory conditions (temperature: 22±2 °C, humidity: 45 -85%, air changes: 16 times/hour and 12 hours of light and 12 hours of darkness per day). Animals were fed on Pelleted rodent diet, ad libitum. The animals were acclimatized for 14 days.
Prior to acclimation, females were paired with males (2:1) until mating was confirmed. Presence of sperm in vaginal smear was considered to be proof of pregnancy and the day of observation was referred to as Day 0 of presumed gestation (GD 0).
Each treatment and control group contained 24 mated females.
All animals were observed daily for mortality and clinical observations. Body weights were recorded on Days 0 (prior to treatment initiation), 5, 10, 15 and 20 of the study. Food consumption was measured for phases 0-5 days, 5-15 days, 15-20 days as well as for 0-20 days.
On gestation Day 20, the dams were sacrificed and examined for visceral gross pathology, cesarean-sectioned, and evidence of maternal and developmental toxicity.
The ovaries and uterine content (gravid uterus weight, number of corpora lutea, number of implantations, numbers of early and late resorptions, number and distribution of implantation sites) was examined after sacrifice.
Numbers of live and dead fetuses were determined. Each fetus was weighed, sexed and examined externally. Fetuses were examined for visceral and skeletal alterations.
No mortality was observed in the study. No treatment-related effects in dams were noted with regard to clinical observations and postmortem findings. The body weight and the food consumption were not affected by the treatment. Gross necropsy revealed no treatment related effects.
There were no treatment related effects with regard to uterus and placenta weights, the number of corpora lutea, and implantations.
There were no treatment related effects with regard to reproduction e.g. litter size, foetal mortality, foetal body weight, birth position and sex ratio. The skeletal and visceral examination of the fetuses revealed no treatment related findings. Neither a statistically significant difference as compared to the concurrent control nor a dose-dependent increase in any malformation or variation was noted.
In conclusion, administration of 1-Hydroxy-3-methyl-4-aminobenzol-sulfat to female BOR:WISW-SPF TNO rats during Day 5-15 of presumed gestation, at dose levels of 0, 10, 40 and 80 mg/kg bw/day by oral gavage revealed a NOAEL of 80 mg/kg bw/day for maternal and developmental toxicity.
