Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: feed
- Vehicle:
- unchanged (no vehicle)
- Details on oral exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:The test substance was mixed without the use of a vehicle, directly with some powder feed (premix) and subsequently mixed with the bulk of the diet. Water (approximately 15% in total) was added to aid pelleting. The pellets were dried for approximately 24 hours at 35°C before storage. The control animals received similarly prepared pellets but without the test substance.DIET PREPARATION- Rate of preparation of diet (frequency): Diets were prepared once weekly- Mixing appropriate amounts with (Type of food): powder feed (premix) and subsequently mixed with the bulk of the diet.- Storage temperature of food: Kept at room temperature in the diet store room
- Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Accuracy, homogeneity and stability were determined for diets prepared for use during treatment.For determination of accuracy, samples were taken at random position or at 90%, 50% and 10% height. The latter set of samples was also used for the determination of the homogeneity of the diets. For determination of stability, additional samples were taken at 50% height and stored at room temperature for 2 weeks or 8 days. Analyses were performed on samples taken in week 4 and week 7. Analysis was carried out using LC-MS/MS.
- 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 for41-54 days, i.e. during 2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, during post-coitum, and during at least 5 days of lactation.
- Frequency of treatment:
- Ad libitum for at least 28 days. Animals received test diet from Day 1 until the day prior to necropsy.

- Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyse the data:- If the variables could be assumed to follow a normal 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 could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.- The Fisher Exact-test (Fisher, 1950) was applied to frequency data.The number of corpora lutea was transformed by using 1/x to obtain a normal distribution. This was followed by ANOVA. The Dunnett-test (many-to-one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied for the comparison of the treated groups and the control group.The number of implantation sites was subjected to the Kruskal-Wallis nonparametric ANOVA test (Kruskal, 1952) to determine intergroup difference. If the results of the ANOVA were significant (p<0.05), the Wilcoxon test (Wilcoxon, 1945) was applied to the data to compare the treated groups to the control group.All tests were two-sided and in all cases p < 0.05 was accepted as the lowest level of significance.Test statistics were calculated on the basis of exact values for means and pooled variances.Individual values, means and standard deviations may have been rounded off before printing.Therefore, two groups may display the same printed means for a given parameter, yet displaydifferent test statistics values.No statistical analysis was performed on histopathology findings.

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITYNo mortality occurred during the study period.No clinical signs of toxicity were noted during the observation period.Slight alopecia was noted for one female rat of Group 1. This finding occurred within the range of background findings to be expected for rats of this age and strain which are housed and treated under the conditions in this study.BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAINBody weight and body weight gain was reduced for males and females on Day 8 prior to mating in the 1500 ppm dose group. This was considered to be related to the decreased food consumption in these animals on Days 1-8. Body weights and body weight gain remained lower in these animalsduring the mating period; however when body weight gain was calculated from Day 8 onwards no difference was noted compared to the control group.In females treated at 500 and 1500 ppm decreased body weights and body weight gain (not always statistically significant) were noted during the post-coitum phase. However, the decrease was not always statisticalyl significant. In these females, body weights were also reduced during the lactation phase.Terminal body weight was significantly lower in males at 1500 ppm and females at 500 and 1500 ppm when compared to control animals.FOOD CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE (if feeding study)Food consumption (absolute and relative) was lower for males and females treated at 1500 ppm over Days 1-8 premating, with recovery of food consumption after Day 8. Slightly reduced food consumption was also noted for females treated at 1500 ppm on several occasions post-coitum, and during lactation. Minor statistically significant differences arising between controls and females receiving 150 or 500 ppm during post-coitum were considered not to represent a change of biological significance.HAEMATOLOGYNo changes in haematological parameters were reported. Changes that occurred were considered to be of no toxicological relevance.CLINICAL CHEMISTRYNo changes in clinical parameters were deeemed to be treatment related. One male at 1500 ppm had decreased aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), albumin and chloride, and increased cholesterol, urea, and creatinine. Total bilirubin was statistically significantly increased for low and high dose females when compared to controls. These changes were considered to have arisen as a result of slightly low control values and in the absence of a dose-response relationship were considered to be of no toxicological significance.ORGAN WEIGHTSThe following statistically significant changes in organ weights distinguished treated from controlanimals:- Decreased absolute prostate weights at 1500 ppm- Decreased absolute and relative seminal vesicles weights at 1500 ppm- Decreased absolute thymus weights for females at 500 and 1500 ppm- Decreased absolute adrenals weights for females at 1500 ppm- Decreased absolute spleen weights for females at 1500 ppmIn the absence of any corroborative microscopic findings, these changes were considered to be of no toxicological significance.High weights for liver and kidneys and low weight for the testes were recorded in one male in the 1500 ppm dose group. These findings were in line with the enlarged liver and kidneys and reduced size of the testes observed macroscopically. Increased relative brain weights in males in the 1500 ppm dose group and in females in the 500 and 1500 ppm dose group were not deemed to be of toxicological relevance. The statistical significant changes noted for w eights of ovaries and uteri were considered to be caused by the relatively high control value. All other statistical significant changes (thyroids of males at 150 and 500 ppm and spleen of females at 500 ppm) were in the normal range of biological variation noted for rats of this strain and age. In the absence of a dose-response relationship, they were considered to be of no toxicological significance. GROSS PATHOLOGYNo macroscopic changes at necropsy were deemed to be treatment related. Changes such as enlarged liver and kidneys, pelvic dilation and pale discolouration of the kidneys and reduced size of the testes were reported in one male in the 1500 ppm dose group. One female in the 150 ppm dose group showed an enlarged spleen and a soft red-brown nodule in the subcutis of the genital region. Incidental findings were also noted however these findings were within the hitorical contriol range among rats of this age and strain. HISTOPATHOLOGY: NON-NEOPLASTICNo treatment related microscopic findings were reported. One male at 1500 ppm showed slight centrilobularhepatocellular liver hypertrophy; marked, bilateral, progressive nephropathy and slight vacuolation of the zona fasciculata of the adrenal glands. These pathologic changes were considered to be part of an underlying systemic defect. These findings were not deemed to be treatment related since none of the other rats in this group showed any overt kidney, liver oradrenal gland toxicityHISTOPATHOLOGY: NEOPLASTIC (if applicable)One female in the 150 ppm dose group displayed a mammary gland adenocarcinoma. However, this is a common finding in this strain of rat of this age.OTHER FINDINGSNo abnormalities were seen in the reproductive organs of suspected non-fertile animals which could account for infertility.The assessment of the integrity of the spermatogenetic cycle did not provide any evidence of impaired spermatogenesis.No toxicologically significant effects on reproductive parameters were noted.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Changes in bodyweight and food consumption at 500 ppm and 1500 ppm were not deemed to be due to DMCHA.Based on the absence of treatment related effects, the No-Observed Adverse Effect Level is greater than 1500 ppm (equivalent to 91-104 and 85-147 mg DMCHA per kg body weight per day for males and females, respectively).
- Executive summary:
Four groups of ten Wistar Han rats/sex were exposed to DMCHA by dietary administration at the following dose levels: 0, 150, 500 and 1500 ppm. Males received the test substance for 28 days (2 weeks prior to mating, during mating and up to necropsy). Females were exposed for 41 -54 days (2 weeks prior to mating, during mating, during post-coitum and during at least 4 days of lactation). Clinical signs, functional observations, body weights, food consumption, reproduction parameters, observations pups, clinical pathology, macroscopy, organ weights, and histopathology were evaluated. Chemical analyses of diet were conducted twice during the study to assess accuracy, homogeneity and stability. The diet was homogeneous and stable for at least 8 days at room temperature.
Decreased body weights and food consumption was reported at 1500 ppm in males and females during week 1. This was considered to be due to a palatability effect of the compound. After week 1, food consumption increased to normal values and body weight gain was normal compared to the control group. Other effects on body weights were noted in females mainly during the postcoitum phase; this decrease could not be solely explained by the food consumption in these animals. One male in the 1500 ppm dose group showed slight centrilobular hepatocellular liver hypertrophy, marked, bilateral, progressive nephropathy and slight vacuolation of the zona fasciculata of the adrenal glands together with several changes for clinical biochemistry parameters, macroscopic findings and organ weight changes. As these findings were not noted in the remaining animals of this dose group, it was not deemed to be treatment related. No treatment-related changes were noted in any of the remaining parameters investigated in this study (i.e. clinical appearance, functional observations, clinical laboratory investigations, macroscopic examination, organ weights, and microscopic examination). Changes in bodyweight and food consumption at 500 ppm and 1500 ppm were not deemed to be due to DMCHA.
