- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 24
- Control animals:
- yes, plain diet
- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: The highest dose (12000 ppm) was selected based on a preliminary study of reproduction performance in the rat where treatment-related findings at 15000 ppm consisted of a slightly low body weight gain during late gestation in the F0 parent females compared with the controls together with a slight loss in body weight during late lactation. In the offspring at the high dose level, body weight gain of both male and females was reduced. For animals selected to form the P1 generation, body weight gain continued to be statistically significantly reduced associated with a delay in sexual maturation. The high dose level of 12000 ppm on the two generation reproduction study was expected to approximate to a limit dose of 1000 mg/kg/day during the F0 pre-mating phase of the study. A high intermediate dose level of 2700 ppm provided an approximate 4.5 fold factor to the highest dose level. The selected low intermediate dose of 600 ppm was anticipated to be a NO(A)EL for both parents and offspring. In the event of toxicity observed at 600 ppm, a dose level of 300 ppm was expected to provide a clear NO(A)EL. During the lactation phase the dietary concentration for females was lowered by 50% to 6000, 1350, 300 and 150 ppm so that the achieved dose for the P0/P1 females in the high dose group does not increase markedly above the limit dose of 1000 mg/kg/day as the maternal food consumption increased.
- Rationale for animal assignment:
P0 generation: Animals were allocated to the P0 generation of the study by sex. Animals showing signs of ill health were excluded. Animals at the extreme of the weight range or litters showing large variation in individual weights were not selected if alternatives were available. The method of allocation of animals to the P0 generation ensured that no more than one offspring of each sex from each litter was present in each group.
P1/F2 generation: The offspring with the lowest within-litter identification per sex from each selected litter will be selected to form the P1/F2 generations, after exclusion of grossly atypical animals. Where possible, either two males and two females or one male and one female were selected from each selected litter. If more were required, offspring were taken from randomly selected litters from each group.
Examinations
- Parental animals: Observations and examinations:
- CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: twice daily
- Cage side observations included: mortality, ill-health, reaction to treatment
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: weekly and on Days 0, 5, 12, 18 and 20 after mating and on Days 1, 7, 14 and 21 of lactation for P0 and P1 animals
BODY WEIGHT: Yes
- Time schedule for examinations: P0 males were weighed on the day of treatment, weekly thereafter and at necropsy. P0 females were weighed on the day of treatment, weekly thereafter until mating, on Days 0, 7, 14 and 20 after mating and on Days 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 25 and 28 post-partum. P1, F1 and F2 animals were weighed at the same frequency P0 animals following selection (nominally 4 weeks of age).
FOOD CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE:
The weight of food supplied to each cage, that remaining and an estimate of any spilled was recorded weekly until paired for mating or termination for P0 males and females. From these records the mean weekly consumption per animal (g/animal/week) was calculated for each cage. The different weights were also recorded for P0 females on Days 0-6, 7-13 and 14-19 after mating and Days 1-3, 4-6, 7-13 and 14-20 of lactation. From these records the mean daily consumption (g/animal/day) was calculated for each animal. For P1/F1/F2 animals the weight of food supplied to each cage, that remaining and an estimate of any spilled was recorded at the same frequency as P0 animals following selection, at approximately 4 weeks of age.
WATER CONSUMPTION: No - Oestrous cyclicity (parental animals):
- Smears were taken daily for 22 days before pairing, using cotton swabs moistened with saline. The smears were subsequently examined to establish the duration and regularity of the oestrous cycle. After pairing with the male, daily smearing was continued using pipette lavage, until evidence of mating was observed. For 4 days before scheduled termination, Days 25 to 28 post-partum for P0 and P1 females and Days 67 to 70 of age for F1 and F2 females, daily vaginal smears were taken and used to determine the stage of the oestrous cycle at termination.
- Sperm parameters (parental animals):
- Parameters examined in P/F1 male parental generations:
testis weight, epididymis weight, sperm motility, sperm morphology, sperm count in epididymides, other: homogenisation-resistant spermatids count - Litter observations:
- STANDARDISATION OF LITTERS
- Performed on day 4 postpartum: yes
- Maximum of 8 pups/litter (4/sex/litter wherever possible); excess pups were killed and discarded.
PARAMETERS EXAMINED
The following parameters were examined in F1 / F2 offspring:
number and sex of pups, anogenital distance (AGD), postnatal mortality, other: clinical signs, sex ratio, individual offspring body weights
GROSS EXAMINATION OF DEAD PUPS:
yes, for external and internal abnormalities; possible cause of death was not determined for pups born or found dead; an assessment for the presence of milk in the stomach was included
ASSESSMENT OF DEVELOPMENTAL NEUROTOXICITY: No
ASSESSMENT OF DEVELOPMENTAL IMMUNOTOXICITY: No - Postmortem examinations (parental animals):
- SACRIFICE
- Male animals: all surviving animals when the majority of litters had weaned after 18 weeks of treatment for the P0 males or 18 weeks of the F1 generation for the P1 males
- Maternal animals: all surviving animals on Day 28 post-partum
GROSS NECROPSY
- Gross necropsy consisted of a complete macroscopic examination. For all females of the parental generations the number of implantation sites was recorded.
HISTOPATHOLOGY / ORGAN WEIGHTS
The tissues indicated in Table 1 were prepared for microscopic examination and weighed, respectively. - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- SACRIFICE
- The F1 offspring not selected as parental animals and all F2 offspring were sacrificed at 21 days of age.
- These animals were subjected to postmortem examinations (macroscopic and/or microscopic examination) as follows:
GROSS NECROPSY
- Gross necropsy consisted of a complete macroscopic examination.
HISTOPATHOLOGY / ORGAN WEIGTHS
The tissues indicated in Table 2 were prepared for microscopic examination and weighed, respectively. - Statistics:
- For body weight, food consumption, litter size and survival indices, sexual maturation and organ weight data, a parametric analysis was performed if Bartlett's test for variance homogeneity was not significant (1% level). The F1 approximate test was applied. If the F1 approximate test for monotonicity of dose-response was not significant (1% level), Williams' test for a monotonic trend was applied. If the F1 approximate test was significant, Dunnett's test was performed instead. A non-parametric analysis was performed if Bartlett's test was still significant at the 1% level following both logarithmic and square-root transformations. The H1 approximate test, the non-parametric equivalent of the F1 test described above, was applied. If the H1 approximate test for monotonicity of dose-response was not significant at the 1% level, Shirley's test for a monotonic trend was applied. If the H1 approximate test was significant, Steel's test was performed instead. For litter size and survival indices and sexual maturation, if 75% of the data (across all groups) were the same value, for example c, Fisher’s Exact tests were performed (pairwise comparison). Sex ratio were analysed by generalised mixed linear model with binomial errors, a logit link function and litter as a random effect. Each treated group was compared to control using a Wald chi-square test. For sex ratio, the numerator was number of males, the denominator was number of live fetuses. For gestation length an exact two-tailed Linear-by-linear test, with equally spaced scores, was applied to all groups. If the test was statistically significant (p<0.05), the highest dose group was excluded and the test re-applied. This ‘step-down’ process was repeated until the test was no longer statistically significant (p≥0.05). If the exact version of the Linear-by-linear test could not be calculated (due to the size of the table containing the data), the asymptotic version was used instead.

Reproductive function / performance (P1)
- Reproductive function: oestrous cycle:
- no effects observed
- Reproductive function: sperm measures:
- no effects observed
- Reproductive performance:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Pre-coital interval, mating performance and fertility were unaffected by treatment. Assessment of vaginal cytology prior to termination did not reveal any differences across the groups. Assessment of ovarian follicle counts of control females and females at the highest dose (12000 ppm and 6000 ppm during lactation phase) did not reveal any difference.
There was a slight shift in gestation length with a higher percentage of females at 12000 ppm showing a shorter gestation length compared with controls, although, the gestation length for all females at 12000 ppm was within the normal range of 22 to 23.5 days. The shift did not attain statistical significance, however the percentage of females showing a 22-day gestation length exceeded the historical control data range, whilst the percentage of females showing a 22.5 and 23-day gestation length was below the historical control data range. It should be noted however, that the concurrent control data was also outside the historical control data range.
