- Details on exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:
Formulations were prepared at least once daily. Formulations were used within four hours of preparation and were stirred for at least 30 ot 60 minutes before dosage administration. - Details on mating procedure:
- - M/F ratio per cage: 1/1
- Length of cohabitation: maximum of 14 days
- Proof of pregnancy: sperm in vaginal smear and/or copulatory plug referred to as day 0 of pregnancy
- Further matings after two unsuccessful attempts: no
- After successful mating each pregnant female was caged (how): individually - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- no
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- A weight/weight verification method was employed to verify the test-substance content of the prepared formulations. No analytical method was developped for this test substance.
- Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Males: 14 days before cohabitation period through the day before sacrifice (45 dosages)
Females: 14 days before cohabitation period through the day before scheduled sacrifice (Day 4 of lactation for dams that delivered a litter, Day 24 of gestation for rats that did not deliver a litter, study Day 52 for the rat with no confirmed day of mating). Surviving female rats were given a total of 38 to 52 dosages. - Frequency of treatment:
- Once daily
Doses / concentrations
- Remarks:
- Doses / Concentrations:
25, 50, 200, 800 mg/kg bw
Basis:
actual ingested
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- 10
- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: In a range-finding study rats were dosed with 100, 300, and 1000 mg/kg bw. At Day 6 the high dose of 1000 mg/kg bw was lowered to 750 mg/kg bw, due to excessive toxicity. Reductions of the body weight were observed within Days 4-5. In the gestation period body weights were only slightly reduced in the 300 and 750/1000 mg/kg bw dose groups. No effects were observed after Caesarean section on Day 21 of gestation up to the highest dose of 750/1000 mg/kg bw. Thus, doses of 25, 50, 200, and 800 mg/kg bw were chosen for the main study. The low dose was expected to be a NOAEL for maternal and embryo-fetal toxicity, and the 800 mg/kg bw dose was expected to produce minimal maternal toxicity and little or no developmental toxicity.
Examinations
- Parental animals: Observations and examinations:
- CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: twice daily
- Cage side observations: clinical signs, abortions, premature deliveries, deaths
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: before the first dosage and weekly thereafter

- Males: weekly, except for the cohabitation period; females: weekly until the cohabitation period, and on Days 0, 7, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, 24, and 25 of gestation, and on Day 1 and 4 of lactation. For the rat with no confirmed mating on study Days 28, 35, 38, 40, 43, 46, 48, and 52. - Oestrous cyclicity (parental animals):
- Estrous cycling was evaluated by examination of vaginal cytology for 13 days beginning with the day after the first administration and then until spermatozoa were observed in a smear of the vaginal contents and/or a copulatory plug was observed in situ during the cohabitation period.
- Sperm parameters (parental animals):
- Parameters examined in the male parental generation: testis weight, epididymis weight
- Litter observations:
- PARAMETERS EXAMINED
The following parameters were examined in [F1] offspring:
number and sex of pups, stillbirths, live births, postnatal mortality, presence of gross anomalies, weight gain, physical or behavioural abnormalities
GROSS EXAMINATION OF DEAD PUPS:
yes, for external and internal abnormalities; possible cause of death was determined for pups born or found dead - Postmortem examinations (parental animals):
- GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes, whole body
HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes, small intestine, large intestine, brain, urinary bladder, heart, testes, liver, lung, trachea, lymphnodes, mesentery lymphnodes, spleen, epididymides, adrenal gland, peripheral nerve, kidney, ovary, prostate, vesicula seminalis, thyroid gland, oesophagus, thymus, uterus, bone marrow, mammary gland, spinal cord, sternum, stomach, vagina - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- SACRIFICE
- The F1 offspring were sacrificed at Day of lactation 4 or 5
- These animals were subjected to postmortem examinations (macroscopic and/or microscopic examination) as follows:
examinaton for gross lesions and an internal confirmation of sex.
GROSS NECROPSY
- Gross necropsy included a single cross-section of the head at the level of the frontal-parietal suture and examination of the cross-sectioned brain for apparent hydrocephaly. Pups that died before examination of the litter for pup viability were evaluated for vital status at birth. The lungs were removed and immersed in water. Pups with lungs that sank were identified as stillborn; pups with lungs that floated were identified as liveborn, and to have dies shortly after birth. - Reproductive indices:
- - Fertility index = (number of pregnant animals / number of copulated pairs) x 100
- Gestation index = (number of pregnant females with pups alive / number of pregnant females) x 100 - Offspring viability indices:
- - Viability index = (number of pups alive on day 4 / number of pups alive on day 0) x 100

Details on results (P0)
There were no substance-related deaths. One female rat of the 800 mg/kg bw dose group was sacrificed due to adverse clinical observations and two more female rat was found dead due to an intubation error.
In the 800 mg/kg bw group excess salivation, chromorhinorrhea, urine-stained abdominal fur, red and/or dried perioral substance and red or clear perinasal substance occurred in significantly increased numbers of male rats. All other clinical signs were considered unrelated to treatment.
Significantly increased numbers of females in the 800 mg/kg group had excess salivation.
BODY WEIGHT AND FOOD CONSUMPTION (PARENTAL ANIMALS)
800 mg/kg bw:
Males: reduction of body weight gain (Day 1 to 14) and body weight (Day 8). Body weight mean on Day 45 was 94% of the control value.
Females: Precohabitation: no effects; gestation: reduced in the 800 mg/kg bw group; lactation: no effects
REPRODUCTIVE FUNCTION: ESTROUS CYCLE (PARENTAL ANIMALS)
No effects observed.
REPRODUCTIVE PERFORMANCE (PARENTAL ANIMALS)
Pregnancy occurred in 90%, 100%, 90%, 90%, and 80% female rats in the control, 25, 50, 200, and 800 mg/kg bw dose groups, respectively. Two pregnant females in the 800 mg/kg bw group were found dead or sacrificed before delivery. All other pregnant rats delivered a litter.
Values for the numbers of dams delivering litters and the gestation index, the numbers of dams with stillborn pups and of dams with all pups dying, viability and lactation indices, and the sex ratio were comparable within all groups.
