Test animals
- Species:

- Strain:
- Wistar
- Sex:
- male/female
- Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:
- - Source: Animals were procured from a CPCSEA approved Vendor [National Institute of Biosciences, Pune Health Status:Healthy young adult animals were used for the study. Females were nulliparous and non-pregnant.
- Age: 12 - 13 weeks at the start of estrous cycle evaluation.
- Acclimatisation: Animals were acclimatised to the test conditions for 7 days prior to test item administration.Animal IdentificationDuring acclimatisation period, all the animals were identified by temporary tail marking with indelible ink and cage cards. Following allocation to the study, each animal was uniquely identified by micro toe pad tattooing and colour coded cage cards labelled with study no., study type, test system, sex, dose, group, animal number, dosing start date, experimental start and completion date. Pups were identified with body marking with permanent non-toxic marker pen.
- Husbandry:
-Housing: Before the animals are brought in, the study room and cages were cleaned and disinfected. During the study, the floor of the experimental room and work tops were swept and mopped with disinfectant solution every day or as on requirement. Cages were cleaned at regular intervals. A total 2-3 rats/sex were housed in Polycarbonate cages (size 37 [cm] x 21 [cm], height 20 [cm]). Cage rotation was carried out weekly during study period except during mating and during gestation and lactation only for females. Pregnant females were caged individually. Sterilized corn cob produced from pure corn, dried and free from dust, procured from approved supplier, was used as bedding material. It was renewed as often as necessary to keep the animals dry and clean.
- Environmental conditions: The room temperature was maintained at 19.60 to 24.70°C the relative humidity was kept between 41.80 to 66.60 %. Artificial light was set to give a cycle of 12 hours light and 12 hours dark. Air changes were about minimum 12 times per hour and filtered adequately.
- Diet A conventional laboratory pelleted diet of batch no. 040817, 041017, 040917 and 040617 from approved supplier (Nutrivet Life Sciences, Pune) was offered ad libitum.

- Details on study schedule:
- Dosing of both sexes were dosed 2 weeks prior to mating, after they were acclimatised for nineteen days and females were screened for normal oestrous cycles (in a 2 weeks pre-treatment period). Pups and dams were sacrificed on day 13 and day 14 respectively. Dams were fasted overnight prior to blood collection. The day of birth (viz. when parturition was completed) was defined as day 0 post-partum. Non – pregnant females were sacrificed on day 49. Dosing was continued in both sexes during the mating period. Males were dosed for 48 days. Daily dosing of the parental females kept continued throughout pregnancy and at least up to the day before sacrifice (Day 13 post-partum).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on all the observations and results, it was concluded that the NOAEL was considered to be 1250 mg/kg bw for P and F1 generation Wistar male and female rat treated with test chemical orally by gavage for more than 63 days.
- Executive summary:
In a Repeated Dose Oral Toxicity Study in combination with Reproduction / Developmental Toxicity study, Wistar male and female rat treated with test chemical in the concentration of 0, 750, 1000 and 1250 mg/kg bw orally by gavage for more than 63 days. No mortality or morbidity was observed in any of the groups of animals throughout the study period however, one male was found dead on Day 42 at 750 mg/kg body weight and one male was found dead on Day 21 at 1250 mg/kg body weight after dosing due to gavaging error. No apparent treatment related clinical signs were observed in any of the animals throughout the treatment period. However, statistically significant increase was noted in urine pool at 750 mg/kg bw in male on week 2 as compared to control group. In recovery female, statistically significant decrease was noted in rearing at 1250 mg/kg bw on pre treatment, and increase in fecal bolus on week 1 as compared to the control recovery. Detailed clinical examinations like Home cage observation, Handling observation and Open field observation of all animals were observed to be normal during study period in Main study. The above changes observed were inconsistent/ biologically insignificant and not dose dependant, hence considered as incidental and not attributed to the effect of test item administration. No treatment related changes were noted in body weight and body weight gain upto 1250 mg/kg body weight. No treatment related changes were noted upto 1250 mg/kg body weight. However, Feed consumption in animals of the all other test groups of both the sexes was comparable and did not show any significant difference as compared to the respective control group. Changes observed in feed consumption were inconsistent, hence not considered as effect of the test item administration. Similarly, no treatment related changes were noted in hematological parameters upto 1250 mg/kg body weight. There were some observed variations in aPTT, PT, RBC, and platelets which were considered to be of no toxicological significance, of a minimal in nature and occurred in the absence of clear dose related response. No treatment related charges were noted in clinical chemistry parameters upto 1250 mg/kg body weight. The observed variations in clinical chemistry parameters were considered to be of no toxicological significance, of a minimal in nature and occurred in the absence of clear dose related response. No treatment related changes were noted in hormonal analysis (T4, TSH, Testosterone and Estrogen) in any of the groups. The sensory reactivity measurements were comparable and no changes were revealed in any of the animals of all treated groups in both the sexes. Foot splay and fore limb and hind limb grip strength parameters were comparable and no treatment related changes were revealed in any of the animals of all treated groups. In addition, At the end of treatment and recovery period, absolute and relative weight of organs of treated group rats of either sex did not differ significantly when compared to respective control group. In control group G1 and treatment group G2, G3 and G4 all the females showed regular cyclicity i.e. 3-5 days estrous cycle. In cohabitation or mating period, all females from control and treated groups showed evidence of copulation i.e. sperm positive vaginal smear. All females showed precoital interval less than 5 days, except 4 females at 75 mg/kg bw which showed precoital interval more than 5 days. No differences in mating index, pre and post-implantation losses, resorption index, and sexual functions of the male and female animals were observed at any given doses. In fetal parameters, No statistically significant effect on No. of live births were observed in treated rats as compared to control. No statistically significant effect on pups weight at birth and PND13. Terminally sacrificed pups of all treated groups did not reveal any lesion of pathological significance in any of the group when compared with control group. Pups died during course of study revealed various lesions among the control and treated groups viz., external examination Cannibalism (Male: G2:2/20, Female: G2:2/24); and internal examination White Patch on edge of Liver (Male: G2: 1/18). Therefore, NOAEL was considered to be 1250 mg/kg bw for P and F1 generation Wistar male and female rat treated with test chemical orally by gavage for more than 63 days.
