- Source: Charles River Deutschland, Sulzfeld, Germany

- Age at study initiation: approximately 10-13 weeks
- Weight at study initiation: 316 – 386 g (males) and 209 – 251 g (females)
- Housing: 5 animals of the same sex and same dosing group were housed together in polycarbonate cages (Makrolon MIV type; height 18 cm) containing sterilized sawdust as bedding material (Lignocel S 8-15, JRS - J. Rettenmaier & Söhne GmbH + CO KG, Rosenberg, Germany). Animals were separated during designated procedures/activities.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS

- Humidity (%): 40 - 70
- Air changes (per hr): 10 or more
- Photoperiod (hrs dark / hrs light): 12/12
Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- inhalation: aerosol
- Type of inhalation exposure:
- nose only
- Vehicle:
- air
- Mass median aerodynamic diameter (MMAD):
- > 3.4 - < 4.3 µm
- Remark on MMAD/GSD:
- The Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) ± Geometric Standard Deviation (GSD) was 3.4 ± 2.0 µm and 3.6 ± 1.9 µm at 1 mg/L air and 4.3 ± 1.7 µm and 3.7 ± 1.8 µm at 5 mg/L air, respectively. Agglomeration of aerosol particles at this high concentration might have resulted in the MMAD values to fall outside the recommended range of 1 - 4 µm. The MMAD just exceeded this range and there was no evidence for item deposition in the upper airways. Since it is generally known that good distribution throughout the lung requires particles with an aerodynamic diameter between 1 and 5 μm, it can be assumed that sufficient deposition in the lower respiratory tract occurred during the exposure.

- GENERATION OF TEST ATMOSPHERE / CHAMBER DESCRIPTION
- Exposure apparatus: Polycarbonate restraining tubes, which were connected to the exposure chamber. The chamber consists of animal sections with eight animal ports each. Each animal port has its own test atmosphere inlet and exhaust outlet. The number of animal sections and number of open inlets were adapted to the air flow in such a way that at each animal port the theoretical air flow was at least 1 L/min. The main inlet of the test atmosphere was located at the top section and the main outlet was located at the bottom section. The direction of the flow of the test atmosphere guaranteed a freshly generated atmosphere for each individual animal. All components of the exposure chamber in contact with test item were made of stainless steel, glass, rubber or plastic.
- Rate of air: 1 L/min
- System of generating aerosols: An aerosol was generated by nebulization of the test item using a Collison nebulizer. The primary aerosol was let through a cyclone, allowing large particles to settle, and diluted with pressurized air before it entered the exposure chamber. The mean total airflows were 39 and 19 L/min, at 1 and 5 mg/L, respectively.
- Method of particle size determination: The particle size distribution was characterized twice during each exposure period. The samples were drawn with a flow of 2 L/min. From the test atmosphere through a tube mounted in one of the free animal ports of the exposure chamber. The samples were collected with an 8 stage Marple personal cascade impactor containing fiber glass filters and a fiber glass back-up filter. Amounts of test item collected were measured gravimetrically. Subsequently the Mass Median Aerodynamic Diameter (MMAD) and the Geometric Standard Deviation (gsd) were determined based on OECD guidance document No 39.
- Treatment of exhaust air: From the exposure chamber the test atmosphere was passed through a filter before it was released to the exhaust of the fume hood.
- Temperature and humidity in air chamber: 18.7 – 21.6 °C, 5.6 – 6.8%
TEST ATMOSPHERE
- Brief description of analytical method used: Sample volumes were measured by means of a dry gas meter. The collected amount of test item in the air sample was measured gravimetrically.
- Samples taken from breathing zone: yes. Samples were drawn from the test atmosphere through a tube mounted in one of the free animal ports of the exposure chamber.
- Analytical verification of test atmosphere concentrations:
- yes
- Remarks:
- gravimetric
- Duration of exposure:
- 4 h
- Concentrations:
- 1.1 ± 0.04 and 5.2 ± 0.2 mg/L air (analytical concentrations)
3.0 and 7.9 mg/L air (nominal concentrations) - No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 5
- Control animals:
- no
- Details on study design:
- - Duration of observation period following administration: 14 days
- Frequency of observations and weighing: Animals were checked for mortality, behavioral signs of distress and effects on respiration at least three times during exposure. Post exposure observations were performed at periodic intervals on the day of exposure (at least two times) and once daily thereafter. Animals were weighed individually on Day 1 (pre exposure), 2, 4 and 8 and 15.
- Necropsy of survivors performed: Yes, all animals were subjected to necropsy and descriptions of all internal macroscopic abnormalities were recorded.
