- MTDID 28783 was administered via whole-body inhalation exposure for 6 hours per day for 5 consecutive days, to 3 groups (Groups 2-4) of Crl:CD®(SD) rats with the following exception. On study day 2, all surviving 50 ppm group rats (Group 4) were terminated early due to overt signs of toxicity. Target exposure concentrations were 5, 20, and 50 ppm for Groups 2, 3, and 4, respectively. A concurrent control group (Group 1) was exposed to humidified, filtered air on a comparable regimen. Each group consisted of 5 animals/sex. On the day following the final exposure for each group, all animals (5 rats/sex/group; Groups 1-3) were euthanized and subject to necropsy. All animals were observed twice daily for mortality and moribundity. Clinical examinations were performed prior to exposure, at the approximate midpoint of each exposure, and at 0 to 1 hour (+ 0.25 hours) following each exposure. Detailed physical examinations were performed and individual body weights were recorded on all animals within 4 days of receipt (the week prior to randomization [± 2 days]), on the day of randomization, on the first day of exposure, weekly (± 1 day) during the study period, and on the day of the scheduled necropsy. Individual food consumption was collected 1 week prior to randomization (± 2 days), on the day of randomization, weekly (± 1 day) during the study period, and on the day prior to the scheduled necropsy. Urine samples were collected from all animals in the 20 ppm group (Group 3) on study day 4 for possible future analysis. Complete necropsies were conducted on all animals, and selected organs were weighed at the scheduled necropsies. Selected tissues were examined microscopically from all animals. In addition, a liver sample from each animal was collected at the scheduled necropsies for possible future analysis.

- Time schedule: Clinical examinations were performed daily, prior to exposure, during exposure (at the approximate midpoint), and approximately 0-1 hour (+ 0.25 hr) following the end of exposure (designated as 1 hour post-exposure for report presentation purposes). The absence or presence of findings was recorded for individual animals at observations conducted prior to exposure and approximately 0-1 hour following the end of exposure. Only significant findings were recorded at the approximate midpoint of exposure observations. Detailed physical examinations were conducted on all animals within 4 days of receipt (the week prior to randomization [± 2 days]), on the day of randomization, on the first day of exposure, weekly (± 1 day) during the study period, and on the day of the scheduled necropsy. Observations conducted prior to exposure were not performed on days when detailed physical examinations were conducted provided they were conducted prior to exposure.

Gross lesions (if any)
Results and discussion
Results of examinations
- Clinical signs:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Test substance-related clinical observations were limited to the 50 ppm group males and females found dead or terminated early and included red and/or yellow material on various body surfaces (nose, forelimb[s], urogenital area, and/or anogenital area), increased respiration rate, and/or labored respiration. Additionally, increased respiration rate and/or labored respiration were noted at the approximate midpoint of exposure in the
50 ppm group males and/or females on study day 1.
All other clinical findings in the test substance-exposed groups were noted with similar incidence in the control group, were limited to single animals, were not noted in a dose-related manner, and/or were common findings for laboratory rats of this age and strain. - Mortality:
- mortality observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence):
- There were 6 unscheduled deaths limited to the 50 ppm group males and females on study days 1 and 2. All five 50 ppm group males were found dead on study days 1 and 2. One 50 ppm group female was found dead on study day 2. Based on the unscheduled deaths in the 50 ppm group males and females, the remaining 50 ppm group females were euthanized and examined macroscopically on study day 2. The cause of death for the five 50 ppm group males and the one 50 ppm group female was acute inflammation in the lungs. Hemorrhage in the lungs was an additional cause of death in two 50 ppm group males (animal nos. 7453 and 7456).
Acute inflammation of the lungs was moderate in unscheduled death animals and was characterized by a multifocal to diffuse thickening of the alveolar walls by a mixed inflammatory cell infiltration, including lymphocytes and neutrophils. Alveolar macrophages were present in alveoli. Perivascular and peribronchiolar infiltrations of neutrophils, eosinophils, and lymphocytes were prominent features of the lesion, as was interstitial edema in the perivascular and peribronchiolar areas.
In addition to acute inflammation of the lungs, the lungs of unscheduled death animals also had mild to moderate alveolar edema and mild to severe congestion. In the 50 ppm group males, minimal or moderate alveolar hemorrhage was present. Other test substance-related findings in the unscheduled death animals were moderate dilatation of renal tubules (in 3 out of five 50 ppm group males), mild to moderate vacuolation of tubular epithelium (in 2 out of five 50 ppm group males), and minimal to moderate mineralization of the collecting ducts (in 2 out of five 50 ppm group males). The tubules affected by dilatation and vacuolation were primarily the distal tubules in the cortex. These changes in the kidney were limited to the unscheduled death 50 ppm group
males. The significance of these renal changes or their association with test substance exposure is not clear. - Body weight and weight changes:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Body weights were unaffected by test substance exposure. There were no statistically significant differences when the control and test substance-exposed groups were compared.
- Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Food consumption was unaffected by test substance exposure.
- Food efficiency:
- not examined
- Water consumption and compound intake (if drinking water study):
- not examined
- Ophthalmological findings:
- not examined
- Haematological findings:
- not examined
- Clinical biochemistry findings:
- not examined
- Urinalysis findings:
- not examined
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Urine was collected but not examined.
- Behaviour (functional findings):
- not examined
- Immunological findings:
- not examined
- Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- There were test substance-related, statistically significant, higher absolute and relative lung weights in the 5 and 20 ppm group males, and in the 5 and 20 ppm group females. Lung weights were also elevated in the 50 ppm group but no statistical analysis was performed.
- Gross pathological findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Test substance-related gross observations were present in the lungs and mediastinal lymph nodes. The lungs were reported as not fully collapsed with additional notations of dark red discoloration and/or dark red areas in the 50 ppm group males and in the 20 and 50 ppm group females.
In the 5 and 20 ppm group males and females, enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes were present and considered test substance-related.
The gross findings in the lungs correlated to acute inflammation (in the 50 ppm group males and females) and to subacute inflammation (in the 20 ppm group females). The enlarged mediastinal lymph nodes correlated to lymphoid hyperplasia of the mediastinal lymph nodes. - Neuropathological findings:
- not examined
- Histopathological findings: non-neoplastic:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- In the 50 ppm early death males and 50 ppm unscheduled and scheduled necropsy females, the lungs had moderate acute inflammation. Acute inflammation of the lungs was also the test substance-related lesion in the 50 ppm group females that were subjected to early termination at study day 2. Acute inflammation explains the higher lung weights in the 50 ppm group males and females. Moderate acute inflammation was considered adverse. In the 5 and 20 ppm group males and females (examined macroscopically on study day 5), there was test substance-related subacute inflammation of the lungs. This change was characterized by numerous features, including thickening of the alveolar walls by histologic appearance was consistent with a reactive lymph node draining an area of subacute inflammation in the lungs. Hyperplasia of mediastinal lymph nodes was not present in the 50 ppm group males or females, presumably due to the early deaths or termination at study days 1 and 2. Hyperplasia of lymphoid tissue in mediastinal lymph nodes was considered nonadverse and a compensatory change.
In the unscheduled death 50 ppm group males, there was renal tubular dilatation, renal tubular vacuolation, and mineralization of the medulla. The dilatation
was characterized by dilated proximal tubules in the cortex. These tubules were empty and lined by flattened epithelial cells. Vacuolation of renal tubules was mostly within the distal convoluted tubules of the cortex, and these tubules were swollen by clear, finely vacuolated to foamy cytoplasm. Two males had minimal or moderate mineralization in the medulla, and this mineralization consisted of conglomerates of mineralized material causing disruption of the collecting ducts. There was no associated inflammation. With moderate mineralization, there was dilatation of the collecting tubules. Since these kidney changes (dilatation, vacuolation, and mineralization) were limited to unscheduled death males and no similar lesions were present in scheduled necropsy males or females at any dose level, the relationship of these changes with test substance exposure is uncertain.
There were no other test substance-related histologic changes. Remaining histologic changes were considered to be incidental findings unrelated to administration of the test substance. There was no test substance-related alteration in the prevalence, severity, or histologic character of those incidental tissue alterations. - Histopathological findings: neoplastic:

- Executive summary:
The study evaluated the 5-day repeat exposure inhalation toxicity potential of MTDID 28783 in male and female Sprague Dawley rats. The study was a conducted according to a WIL Research standard protocol. The study was conducted in the spirit of GLP but was not GLP compliant. MTDID 28783 was tested as a gas. Rats (5/sex/dose) were exposed, whole body, to 5, 20, or 50 ppm of MTIDD 28783 for 6 hours per day on five consecutive days. Control rats (5/sex) were placed in a separate chamber on the same schedule without the addition of the test material. Animals were observed for mortality and moribundity (twice daily), clinical signs (prior to exposure, at the midpoint of each exposure, and at 0 to 1 hour following each exposure) detailed physical examinations and body weights (at randomization, on the first day of exposure, and at necropsy). Urine samples were collected from the 20 ppm group on Study Day 4 for possible future analysis. At termination on Day 5 following exposure, necropsy was performed on all animals and the lungs, kidneys, brain, spleen, thymus and livers were collected, weighed and the livers were frozen for possible future analysis. Test substance-related deaths occurred in the 50 ppm group males (Day 1, 5/5) and females (Day 2, 1/5 found dead, 4/5 terminated due to moribund condition). Clinical observations prior to death in the 50 ppm animals during exposures included red and/or yellow material on various body surfaces, increased respiration rate and labored respiration. No abnormal clinical observations were observed in the other treatment or control groups. No test-substance-related effects on body weights or food consumption were noted in any animals. Upon necropsy dark red areas were noted in the 50 ppm males and the 20 and 50 ppm females. Higher absolute and relative lung weights were noted in the 5 and 20 ppm males and females as well as the 50 ppm females when compared with controls. Mild to moderate subacute inflammation of the lung, hyperplasia of the peribrochioloar lymphoid tissue, and lymphoid hyperplasia of the mediastinal lymph nodes in the 5 and 20 ppm group males and females was observed. In addition, acute inflammation of the lung in the 50 ppm group females and alveolar edema in the 20 and 50 ppm group females as well as 50 ppm group males was observed. Based on the results of the study, the Lowest Observed Adverse Effect Level (LOAEL) is 5 ppm following 6 hour exposures for 5 days.
