For each concentration, the test substance was weighed out and mixed with a small amount of food. Then corresponding amounts of food, depending on dose group, were added to this premix in order to obtain the desired concentrations. Mixing was carried out for about 10 minutes in a laboratory mixer. The test-substance preparations were mixed weekly. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- The HPLC analyses of the test-substance preparations were carried out at the Analytical Chemistry Laboratory of Experimental Toxicology and Ecology of BASF SE, Ludwigshafen, Germany. The stability of the test substance in the diet over a period of up to 12 days at room
temperature was proven before the start of the study. - Duration of treatment / exposure:

- - Dose selection rationale: By request of the sponsor, the following dose levels adjusted in the diet were selected for the present study:
1000 mg/kg body weight/day: as high dose, which is the limit dose according to the test guidelines
300 mg/kg body weight/day: as mid dose
100 mg/kg body weight/day: as low dose

Results and discussion
Results of examinations
- Details on results:
- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
No animal died prematurely in the present study.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
No substance-related significantly changes in body weight as well as body weight change were measured in treated animals when compared to controls.
The apparently lower body weight and body weight change in males of group 2 (300 mg/kg) were not dose dependent and thus considered to represent normal biological variability rather than a relation to treatment.
FOOD CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE
Variations of daily food consumption were observed in all groups including controls.
Differences between food consumption of control and treated groups did not display a consistent pattern. In addition, no significantly differences were observed. Therefore the observed changes were not considered to be related to treatment.
The approximate, mean daily test-substance intake in mg/kg body weight/day over the entire study period is shown in the following table:
Target dose Real mean daily test-substance intake
(mg/kg bw/day) (mg/kg bw/day)
Males Females
100 94.6 98.8
300 285.7 295.1
1000 953.6 983.1
FOOD EFFICIENCY
During numerous time intervals, food efficiency differed from controls (increased/ decreased values) in all treatment groups. However, as there was no consistent trend, these deviations were considered incidental.
WATER CONSUMPTION
No test-substance influence on water consumption was observed.
OPHTHALMOSCOPIC EXAMINATION
Cornea opacity of the right eye was observed in 1/10 males of group 3 (1000 mg/kg bw/day) on days 91 and 92. Due to the isolated occurrence this observation was assessed as spontaneous in nature and therefore not substance-related.
HAEMATOLOGY
No treatment-related changes in the hematological parameters including coagulation values were measured.
At the end of the study the prothrombin time (Hepato Quick’s time) was increased in females of the 300 mg/kg bw/day dose group. This increase was not dose-dependent. The mean of the prothrombin time was within the historical control range (26.3 - 37.9 seconds). Therefore, this change was regarded as incidental rather than treatment-related.
In females of the 300 and 1000 mg/kg bw/day dose groups the absolute eosinophil counts were marginally lower compared to controls, but within the historical control range (0.06 –0.12 G/L). Furthermore, this decrease was not accompanied by any change of the total white blood cell counts (WBC). Therefore, this change was regarded as incidental rather than treatment-related.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
No treatment-related, adverse changes in the clinical chemistry parameters were measured.
In males of the 1000 mg/kg bw/day dose group the triglyceride values were statistically significantly higher compared to controls. This was the only parameter in clinical pathology which was deviated in dosed males and furthermore, no treatment-related histophathological finding in the liver was observed. Therefore, these higher triglyceride values were regarded as treatment-related, but not adverse.
URINALYSIS
No treatment-related, adverse changes in the urinalyses parameters were observed.
In females of the 300 mg/kg bw/day dose group the urine volume was decreased and the urinary specific gravity was increased. Both parameters were not dose-dependently changed.
Moreover, a higher specific gravity is indicating an adaptive concentrating capacity of the kidneys during a reduced urine flow rate. Therefore, these deviations were regarded as non-adverse. Furthermore, as the changes were not dose related, a relation related to treatment is unlikely.
In 7 of 10 males of the 1000 mg/kg bw/day dose group – and in one male of the 300 mg/kg bw/day dose group – the urine was daffodil-like (intense yellow) discolored. The discoloration may be due to the excretion of the test article and/or its metabolite. Since no other changes in clinical pathology parameters were found. Therefore, this change of urine color was regarded as treatment-related, but not adverse.
NEUROBEHAVIOUR
FOB
Deviations from "zero values" were obtained in several animals. However, as all findings were equally distributed between treated groups and controls, were without a dose-response relationship or occurred in single animals only, these observations were considered to have been incidental.
Besides this, the following examinations were carried out within the FOB and were assessed individually:
Home cage observations: No substance-related findings were observed.
Open field observations: No substance-related findings were observed.
Sensorimotor tests/reflexes: No substance-related findings were observed.
Quantitative parameters: No substance-related findings were observed.
MA
Regarding the overall motor activity, no significant deviations were observed.
Comparing the single intervals with the control groups, the isolated significantly decrease of interrupts in males of group 1 (100 mg/kg bw/day) at interval 10 with the lack of a doseresponse relationship is considered as spontaneous in nature and therefore not substance related.
ORGAN WEIGHTS, GROSS PATHOLOGY AND HISTOPATHOLOGY
No test item-related effects were seen on organ weights, and no macroscopic or histopathological changes considered to be test item-related were observed in the organs and tissues evaluated in this study.
