- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
PREPARATION
- Formulations of AAA reaction product in the vehicle (PEG 300) were prepared weekly. AAA reaction product was weighed into a glass beaker on a tared Mettler balance and the vehicle added. The mixtures were prepared using a magnetic stirrer and stored in the refrigerator (2-8°C).
Homogeneity of the AAA reaction product formulations were maintained during the daily administration period using a magnetic stirrer.

- Concentration in vehicle: 2, 10 and 50 mg/mL (Nominal concentrations)
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): in accordance to 2, 10 and 50 mg/mL (Nominal concentrations)
- Lot/batch no. (if required): 442989/1 54802033
- Purity: no information - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Concentration, homogeneity and stability (after 2 hours and 7 days) of the dose formulations were determined in samples taken after experimental start. Concentration and homogeneity of the dose formulations were determined in samples taken during week 3 of the treatment. The analyses were performed by RCC Ltd (Environmental Chemistry & Pharmanalytics Division) according to a HPLC method supplied by the Sponsor.
It is noted that although the dose formulations were made and used before the expiry date of the test item and analytical samples were taken and deep-frozen (ca. –20°C) before the expiry date of the test item, the final analytical method was not provided until after the expiry date had passed.
The results in terms of concentration, homogenity and stability was within the limits of the established chemical analysis. - Duration of treatment / exposure:

The following organ weights were recorded on the scheduled dates of necropsy: Brain, Thymus, Spleen, Ovaries, Heart, Kidneys, Testes, Liver, Adrenals and Epididymides. The organ to terminal body weight ratios as well as organ to brain weight ratios were determined. The determination of the terminal body weight was performed immediately prior to necropsy.
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes, samples of the following tissues and organs were collected from all animals at necropsy and fixed in neutral phosphate buffered 4 % formaldehyde solution. All organ and tissue samples were processed, embedded and cut at an approximate thickness of 2 to 4 micrometers, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin. Slides from control and high-dose groups were examined.

Gross lesions - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyze the grip strength, locomotor activity, body weight, organ weights and ratios:
• The Dunnett-test (many to one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate were applied if the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
• The Steel-test (many-one rank test) were applied instead of the Dunnett-test when the data can not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
• Fisher's exact-test were applied to the macroscopic findings.
The following statistical methods were used for statistical analysis of clinical laboratory data:
• Quantitative data were analyzed by a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) when the variances are considered homogeneous according to Bartlett. Alternatively, if the variances are considered to be heterogenous (p0.05), a non-parametric Kruskal-Wallis test was used. Treated groups were compared to the control groups using Dunnett’s test if the ANOVA was significant at the 5% level and by Dunn’s test in the case of a significant Kruskal-Wallis test (p0.05).

- Details on results:
- Clinical observations: No test item-related findings of toxicological significance
were noted during daily observations in the test item-
treated rats.
No test item-related findings of toxicological significance
were noted during weekly behavioral observations in the test
item-treated rats.
Laboratory findings: Mean hemoglobin levels and hematocrit was reduced in males and females treated with 250 mg/kg bw/day when compared with the controls. The differences for males remained within the lower limit of the 95% tolerance limits of the historical control data, but the values for the females exceeded the lower limit of the historical control data. The mean red blood cell count was reduced in males and females treated with 250 mg/kg bw/day. These differences were considered to be test item- related. All other changes were considered to be minor and unrelated to the treatment with the test item.
Effects in organs: Test item-related changes included increased kidney and liver weights in males and females treated with 250 mg/kg bw/day. There were no item-related necropsy or histopathological findings. In particular, there were no histopathological findings to correlate with the observed increase in weight of kidneys (males and females at 250 mg/kg bw/day) and liver (females at 250 mg/kg bw/day).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The 28-day oral toxicity of AAA-reaction product was evaluated in accordance to OECD 407 using dose levels of 10, 50 and 250 mg/kg bw/day. A NOAEL of 50 mg/kg bw/day was established based on changes in hematology parameters and slightly increased mean kidney and liver weights in males and females treated with 250 mg/kg bw/day.
- Executive summary:
Oral administration of AAA-reaction product to Wistar rats at doses of 10, 50 and 250 mg/kg bw/day, for 28 days (OECD 407) resulted in no deaths, no clinical signs of toxicological relevance following daily observations, weekly behavioral observations (weeks 1-3) or functional observational battery (week 4), including grip strength and locomotor activity. No differences in mean food consumption or mean body weight were noted, and no changes in the clinical biochemistry parameters were seen. There were no necropsy or histopathological findings related to AAA-reaction product.
Toxicological findings related to AAA-reaction product were generally restricted to changes in hematology parameters (reduced mean hemoglobin and hematocrit at 250 mg/kg bw/day, as well as reduced mean red blood cell count), and slightly increased mean kidney and liver weights in males and females treated with 250 mg/kg bw/day. These changes were, however, not accompanied by microscopical changes.
Based on the results of this study, 50 mg/kg bw/day of AAA-reaction product was established as the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL).
