caged together with males on a one-to-one-basis in Macrolon cages (Mill type, height 18 ern). Post-mating Males were housed in their home cage (Macrolon cages, MIV type, height 18 cm) with a maximum of 5 animals/cage. Females were individually housed in Macrolon cages (Mill type, height 18 cm).
Lactation Offspring were kept wh the dam until termination in Macrolon cages (Mill type, height 18 cm). General Sterilized sawdust as bedding material (L Iabo, S.P.P.S., Argentauil, France) and paper as cage-enrichment (Enviro-dri, Wm. Lillico & Son (Wonham Mill Ltd), Surrey, United Kingdom) were supplied. Certificates of analysis were examined and then retained in the NOTOX archives.
ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS
-Temperature ("C): 18.3--21.9
-Humidity(%): 42- 82
-Air changes (per hr): approx. 15
-Photoperiod (hrs dark I hrs light): 12/12
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- propylene glycol
- Details on exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
Formulations (wlw) were prepared daily within 5 hours prior to dosing and were homogenized to a visually acceptable level. Adjustment
was made for specific gravity of the vehicle (factor 1.036).
VEHICLE
-Justification for use and choice of vehicle (W other than water): Based on trial formulations performed at NOTOX and based on a previous
28-day study with AD-1500 (NOTOX Project 472343, see section 7.5.1).
- Concentration in vehicle: 10, 30 and 200 mg/mL on Days 1 and 2, 5, 15 and 100 mg/mL from Day 3 onwards.
-Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 5 mUkg body weight on Days 1 and 2. The dose volume was increased to 10 mUkg from Day 3 of
premating onwards. - Details on mating procedure:
- Following a minimum of 14 days of exposure for the males and females, one female was cohabitated with one male of the same treatment group, avoiding sibling mating (Char1es River supplied non-litter mates). Detection of mating was confirmed by evidence of sperm in the vaginal lavage or by the appearance of an intravaginal copulatory plug. This day was designated Day 0 postcoitum. Once mating had occurred, the males and females were
separated. A maximum of 14 days was allowed for mating. After 14 days of mating, any females who had not shown evidence of mating were separated from their males.
The females were allowed to litter normally. Day 1 of lactation was defined as the day when a litter was found completed (i.e. membranes, placentas cleaned up, nest build up and/or feeding of pups started). Females that were littering were left undisturbed.
Examination of maternal care revealed no deficiencies (such as inadequate construction or cleaning of the nest, pups left scattered and cold, physical abuse of pups or apparently inadequate lactation or feeding). - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Analyses were performed according to a validated method {NOTOX Project 477023, see section 8), on formulations prepared on Days 1 and 7 {i.e. before and after adjusting the dose volume from 5 to 10 ml/kg).
Group 1-4 formulations were analysed for accuracy. Group 2 and 4 formulations were also analysed for stability {over 6 hours) and homogeneity.
The accuracy of preparation was considered acceptable if the mean measured concentrations were 85-115% for suspensions. Homogeneity was demonstrated if the coefficient of variation was s 10%. Formulations were considered stable if the relative difference before and after storage was maximally 10%. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Males were exposed for 28 days, i.e. 2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, and up to termination. Females were exposed for 40 to 49 days, i.e. during 2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, during post-coitum, and during at least 3 days of lactation.
- Frequency of treatment:
- Once daily
- Details on study schedule:
- -Age at mating of the mated animals in the study: approximately 14 weeks

-Maternal animals: All surviving animals after at least 3 days of lactation
GROSS NECROPSY
-Gross necropsy consisted of external and internal examinations including the cervical, thoracic, and abdominal viscera.
-The number of corpora lutea and former implantation sites were recorded. Nongravid uteri were stained using the Salewski technique.
Samples of the following tissues and organs were collected and fiXed in 10% buffered formalin:
Identification marks (not processed), Preputial gland, Cervix, Prostate gland, Clitoral gland, Seminal vesides, Coagulation gland, Testes*,
Epididymides*, Uterus, Ovaries, Vagina, Pituitary gland, All gross lesions
*Fixed in modified Davidson's solution and transferred to formalin after fiX8tion for at least 24 hours.
ORGAN WEIGHTS Epididymides Testes
HISTOPATHOLOGY:
The following slides were examined by a pathologist:
-The ovaries and epididymides of the animals of Groups 1 and 4 and testes of all groups.
- The addijional slides of the testes of the males of Groups 1 and 4 to examine staging of spennatogenesis.
-The reproductive organs (cervix, clitoral gland, coagulation gland, epididymides, ovaries, preputial gland, prostate gland, seminal
vesicles, testis, uterus, and vagina) of all animals that failed to mate, conceive, sire or deliver healthy offspring.
-The preserved organs and tissues of the animals of all dose groups which died spontaneously.
-All gross lesions of all animals (all dose groups). - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- SACRIFICE
-Animals were subjected to external postmortem examinations. - Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyze the data:
-lithe variables could be assumed to follow a nonnal distribution, the Dunnett-test (Dunnett, 1955) (many-to-one t-test) based on a pooled
variance estimate was applied for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
-The Steel-test (Miller, 1981) (many-to-one rank test) was applied if the data oould not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
- The Fisher Exact-test (Fisher 1950) was applied to frequency data.
-The corpora lutes and implantation sites were subjected to the Kruskai-Wallis onparametric N>IOVA test (Kruskal, 1952) to determine intergroup difference. As no results of the ANOVA were significant {p<0.05), the Wilcoxon test (Wilcoxon, 1945) was not applied to the
data.
All tests were two-sided and in all cases p < 0.05 was accepted as the lowest level of significance. Group means were calculated for continuous data and medians were calculated for discrete data (scores) in the summary tables. Test statistics were calculated on the basis of exact values for means and pooled variances. Individual values, means and standard deviations may be rounded off before printing. Therefore, two groups may display the same printed means for a given parameter, yet display different test statistics values.
No statistical analysis was performed on histopathology findings. - Reproductive indices:
- For each group the following calculations were perfonned:
Percentage mating males = (Number of females mated/Number of males paired) x 100
Percentage mating females= (Number of females mated/Number of females paired) x 100
Fertility index males= (Number of males generating a pregnancy/Number of males paired) x 100
Fertility index females = (Number of pregnant females/Number of females paired) x 100
Conception rate = (Number of pregnant females/Number of females mated)x 100
Gestation index= (Number of females bearing live pups/Number of pregnant females) x 100
Duration of gestation = Number of days between confinnation of mating and the beginning of parturition - Offspring viability indices:
- For each dose group pup parameters were expressed in two ways:
-As a mean (with standard deviation) of the number observed for each litter
- Relative to a second parameter and calculated on a total group basis
Percentage live males at First Litter Check= (Number of live male pups at First Litter Check/Number of live pups at First Litter Check) x
100
Percentage live females at first litter check= (Number of live female pups at First Litter Check/Number of live pups at First Litter Check) x
100
Percentage of postnatal loss Days 0-4 of lactation = (Number of dead pups on Day 4 of lactation/Number of live pups at First Litter Check)
X 100
Viability index= (Number of live pups on Day 4 of lactation/Number of pups born alive) x 100

Details on results (P0)
No substance related mortality occurred. Slight to moderate salivation was transiently noted for 8 males and 4 females of Groups 2 and 3 and 5 males and 4 females of Group 4. This finding was transient and noted in absence of a dose response relationship. Salivation for these animals was likely due to the taste of the test substance and is not considered to be a sign of treatment-related toxicity.
BODY WEIGHT AND FOOD CONSUMPTION {PARENTAL ANIMALS: No effects.
REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION: SPERM MEASURES (PARENTAL ANIMALS) REPRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE (PARENTAL ANIMALS)
ORGAN WEIGHTS (PARENTAL ANIMALS)
In males, testes and epididymides weights and organ to body weight ratios remained unaffected wijh treatment up to 1000 mglkg of AD-
1500. At 50 mg/kg, absolute testes weights and testes:body weight ratios were significanUy higher than controls. Testes weights were
similar to controls for all other treatment Groups. In absence of a dose response relationship, this findings was considered to be fortuitous.
GROSS PATHOLOGY (PARENTAL ANIMALS):
There were no macroscopic findings that were considered to be related to treatment with AD-1500 up to 1000 mglkg. Incidental findings seen for control and treated animals at macroscopic examination included alopecia of several body parts, reddish focus/foci and tan soft nodules on the right clitoral glands, tan or yellowish soft nodules on the right epididymide (head or body), reddish soft or yellowish hard nodules on the uterine adipose tissue, a flaccid smaller left testis and left epididymides reduced in size. At the limited incidence and in the absence of a dose-response relationship, these were not considered to be toxicologically-relevant. Uterus contains fluid was noted for a single female at 150 mg/kg (female no. 68, Group 3); this finding correlates with a particular stage in the estrous cycle and is not indicative of an effect related to treatment wijh AD-1500.
HISTOPATHOLOGY (PARENTAL ANIMALS):
There were no treatment related microscopic findings. For the seven males and seven females failed to mate, conceive, sire or deliver
hea hy offspring, there were no morphological alterations to account for any lack of fertility. Spennatogenic staging profiles were nonnal for all Group 1 and Group 4 males. All microscopic findings recorded were within the normal range of background pathology encountered in Wistar Han rats of this age and strain.
OTHER FINDINGS (PARENTAL ANIMALS):
The number of corpora lutea, implantation sites, implantation index, number of pups born, live and dead pups at first litter check, delivery index, and duration of gestation were unaffected by treatment of AD-1500 up to 1000 mglkg. There were no treatment-related effects on
the duration of gestation, number of litters, numbers of living or dead pups at first litter check, postnatal loss, or on the viability index, number of corpora lutea or the number of implantation sites up to 1000 mg/kg.
