Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- corn oil
- Details on oral exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS: 100 g of corn oil was weighed into a jar. According to the dose formulation, different increments of the test material were added and stirred until dissolved. (5 g for high dose, 3 g for mid dose and 1 g for low dose). After the desired weight of the test material was added to the jar, the solutions were stirred magnetically for 30 minutes. Following stirring, the solutions were allowed to stand prior to removing aliquots for analysis.
VEHICLE
- Amount of vehicle (if gavage): 10 mL/kg - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- The dose formulations were analysed for concentration, homogeneity and stability in corn oil.
Homogeneity: Six aliquots were removed from each of the test solutions (two samples of each from the top, near the middle and near the bottom). The aliquots were diluted in hexane and analysed.
Stability: The stability of the dosing formulations was analysed of a 13 day period. 8.1 mg/mL and 78.9 mg/mL solutions used for the homogeneity testing. These solutions were analysed on day 7 and 13 after preparation and were compared to the results from the homogeneity testing obtained on Day 0. Solutions were stored at ambient temperatures in the dark. Stability of the dose solutions were also confirmed over the dosing period by analysing the formulations at the beginning and end of the dose interval.
Quantification: Two or three replicate aliquots (approximately 150-300 mg each) of each dose formulation and each solution prepared for homogeneity or stability tests were diluted in volumetric flasks to 10 mL with hexane. Calibration standards were prepared over a range of approximately 0.1 mg to 5 mg/mL in hexane and were analysed with the samples by gas chromatography. Duplicate injections were made for each standard and sample. A linear regression was performed on the calibration standards which was then used to quantify the concentration of the test substance in the dose formulations.
The test material was analysed by gas chromatography under the following conditions:

Representative sections of heart, liver, spleen, kidneys and adrenal glands from animals in the control and high dose groups as well as any gross lesions from all groups were prepared, stained with haematoxylin and eosin, and examined microscopically. Based on liver and kidney lesions in high dose animals, these tissues were examined from all dose groups including recovery groups. - Statistics:
- Body weights, food consumption (absolute and relative), organ weights (absolute and relative), clinical chemistry and haematology were analysed among the group means using ANOVA. All groups were analysed for weeks 1-4 and the recovery groups were analysed for weeks 5-6 separately. Where significant difference was observed, the results of the Duncan’s Multiple Rage Test were used to determine which groups were statistically significant compared to the control. All tests were used a significance level of p≤0.05. Males and females were analysed separately. The repeated measure ANOVA was not used as it would not have provided additional information.
Results and discussion
Results of examinations
- Clinical signs:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Male and females in control group did not show any abnormal clinical signs during the entire study. Minimal, transient abnormal signs were seen in the lowest dose group (83 mg/kg bw/day). Male animals dosed with 250 mg/kg bw/day showed minimal abnormal signs, female animals which survived to terminal necropsy had decreased activity, poor coat and urogenital discolouring. Animals dosed with 425/850 mg/kg bw/day had the most extensive abnormal clinical signs which included decreased activity, nasal and urogenital discharge, poor coat, diarrhoea and in some cases moribundity leading to premature death.
- Mortality:
- mortality observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence):
- Twelve animals either died or were sacrificed during the 28 day dosing period. One high dose female was accidently killed on day 1 due to a gavage error. A replacement animal was added to the group on day 1.
After roughly 1 week of dosing, six high dose animals had either died or were sacrificed due to their moribund condition. Three males and three females from the high dose and recovery groups.
One male and one female were sacrificed moribund on day 8 from the high dose recovery groups to provide a comparison with the high dose animals. A further two females from the high dose and high dose recovery groups were found dead after the dose reduction on days 13 and 16. One 250 mg/kg bw/day female was found dead due to a dosing error. - Body weight and weight changes:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Mean body weights for male control animals increased as expected. Body weight declined in animals in the high dose and recovery high dose groups after the first week (when dosed with 850 mg/kg bw/day). After the dose was lowered to 425 mg/kg bw/day, these animals gained weight for the remainder of the study, but remained lower than the control body weights. Animals dosed with 83 or 250 mg/kg bw/day has similar weigh gains to the vehicle control animals.
The body weight gains for the high dose female animals demonstrated a similar trend to the male high dose animals. The initial weight loss was recovered once the high dose was lowered to 425 mg/kg bw/day. The weight gains for the two lower doses (83 and 250 mg/kg bw/day) were slightly lowered compared to the vehicle controls, but only the reduced weight gain for the 250 mg/kg bw/day was statistically significant. - Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- The food consumption values paralleled the results of the body weight gains. For male animals, both absolute and relative food consumption were significantly reduced for animals in the high dose and high dose recovery groups. After the dose was lowered to 425 mg/kg bw/day, the absolute and relative food consumption returned to control values. There were no significant differences in food consumption for either of the two lower dose groups.
The food consumption for female animals were similar to the males. In the high dose and high dose recover groups, both absolute and relative food consumption were reduced, relative to the vehicle controls until the dose was lowered to 425 mg/kg bw/day. Food consumption in the 83 and 250 mg/kg bw/day was not significantly different from the vehicle controls. - Food efficiency:
- not examined
- Water consumption and compound intake (if drinking water study):
- not examined
- Ophthalmological findings:
- not examined
- Haematological findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- The only significant changes in haematology parameters for male rats was observed on day 29. An increase in the number of white blood cells from 10000/µL in the control to 16100/µLat the high dose group. This increase was primarily due to an increase in lymphocytes. Although this was statistically significant, a dose related trend was noted in the low and mid-dose groups for both white blood cell count and lymphocyte count.
In female rats, this increase in white blood cells was not observed. A statistically significant decrease in mean corpuscular haemoglobin concentration was observed in the high and mid dose groups, but was not considered to be biologically significant. The statistical significance for the high dose groups was attributed to the use of data from only two animals with a standard deviation of 0.00.
Following the recovery period. The increase in white blood cells in high dose males was resolved and a statistically significant decrease was observed from 10000/µL to 8200/µL. The significant increase in the percentages of reticulocytes from 1.4 to 2.4 % was not considered to be biologically significant as these values were observed in the control and high dose groups on day 28. The difference was attributed to the lower standard deviations on day 43.
The significant decrease in the number of monocytes in female rats on was not biologically significant as they were with in the control range established by day 29. - Clinical biochemistry findings:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- On day 29, the alkaline phosphatase activity was found to be increased in the high dose group male rats from 578 to 867 U/L, indicating possible cholestasis and toxicity to the bile duct. An increase in phosphorous from 9.0 mg/dL to 11.9 mg/dL was also seen in the high dose group males.
On day 29, female rats in the high dose group had a two-fold increase from 23 U/L to 49 U/L in alanine amino transferase activity, indicating possible liver damage. The alkaline phosphatase activity in high dose animals, while high that the control was not significantly increased. This was attributed to the high standard deviation in the low and mid-dose groups.
In the recovery male animals, alkaline phosphatase activity was similar for both the vehicle and high dose animals. There were no significant changes. In female recovery animals, total bilirubin was significantly decreased in the high dose animals from 0.2 mg/dL to 0.13 mg/dL. This was not considered to be biologically significant as there were no significant differences in total bilirubin in females sacrificed on day 29. Those values ranged from 0.17 to 0.20 for all groups on day 29. - Urinalysis findings:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- The pH values ranged from 6.0 to 7.0 for males and from 6.0 to 7.5 for females. There were no differences amongst the treatment groups. Glucose levels were negative for all animals.
Protein values for vehicle control animals ranged from tract to 100 mg/dL for males and from trace to 30 mg/dL for females. Although several male animals have values of 300 mg/dL, these appeared in both the control and high dose groups. One female animal from the high dose recovery group had a value of 300 mg/dL. There were no dose-related increases in protein concentration in either sex.
Blood levels ranged from negative, trace moderate and large, but there were no dose-related trends in either sex. Ketones ranged from negative, trace, small and moderate, bit no dose-related trend was observed in this parameter. - 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):
- The absolute kidney weight was reduced in the high dose recovery females compared to the control recovery group females. When compared to the relative body weight and brain weight, a difference was no longer significant. Female absolute liver weights were not significant but were significantly higher than the control group when compared to the relatively to the body weight. A similar increase in relative liver weight to body weight was also seen in the high dose recovery females compared to the vehicle control recovery group. This relative difference in the high dose females, however did not occur when the liver weights were compared to the relative brain weight.
- Gross pathological findings:
- effects observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Gross lesions were not considered to be related to treatment. Some where associated with the method, for example gavage errors.
Gross lesions considered to be related to gavage errors included thoracic cavity fluid or adhesions in on low dose and one high dose male and in one, low mid and high dose group female. Lung perforation was seen in one high dose male and one high dose female. Adhesions of the heart and thymus were observed in one low dose female.
Incidental and spontaneous gross lesions included and adrenal gland nodule in a single group 3 male, an enlarged liver in one high dose male, and enlarged retropharynegeal lymph nodes in one high dose group male. In females, one mid dose female and one high dose recovery female had an enlarged uterus. One low dose female had a liver nodule. One low dose female had an adrenal gland focus. One mid dose group female had hydronephrosis. - Neuropathological findings:

- not examined
- Other effects:
- not specified
- Details on results:
- The test substance was determined to be stable at room temperature while stored in the dark for at least 7 days. After 13 days following preparation, the 8.1 mg/mL formulation was approximately 76 % of the initial formulations. After 13 days, residual test material was observed on the glass at the meniscus of the solution. The reduction in concentration with this formulation is attributed to this residue. Based on the results of the stability testing, the dosing solutions were prepared weekly for the duration of the test.
The dose formulation analysis indicated that the average pre- and post-dose analyses indicate that all dosing solutions were within 10 % of the target concentration. No detectable changes in the chromatographic pattern of peaks were observed for any of the analyses.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Tthe NOAEL of the test material was determined to be 250 mg/kg bw/day in male rats and 83 mg/kg bw/day in females, based on the data available in the study.
- Executive summary:
The subacute toxicity of the test material was determined in a study conducted in accordance with OECD 407. The test material was administered via oral gavage to male and female rats (5 animals per sex per dose) at 0 (vehicle control, corn oil), 83, 250 and 850 mg/kg bw/day. Due to the toxicity observed in the high dose group, the dose was reduced to 425 mg/kg bw/day after day 7 for the remainder of the study. Recovery groups were included for the high dose and control groups.
Changes in haematological and clinical chemistry parameters were minimal. Alanine aminotransferase was doubled in high dose female rats. Other liver enxymes, aspartate aminotransferase, was not found to be increased. Liver weights relative to body weight were increased in high dose females. This increase remained in the recovery animals. No gross lesions related to treatment were observed. The primary microscopic lesions were found in the liver and were dose-related.These were hepatocellular necrosis, biliary hyperplasia, and portal inflammation. Kidney lesions were also observed and the severity was dose related. These included tubule necrosis, tubule dilatation, tubule eosinophilia and interstitial inflammation.
Under the conditions of the test, the NOAEL of the test material was determined to be 250 mg/kg bw/day in male rats and 83 mg/kg bw/day based on microscopic lesions observed in the liver. Although at the time of the study, these effects were considered adverse and as such were concluded in the study report. However, when reviewing the anatomic physiological observed effects and the individual liver pathological endpoints in line with more current knowledge concerning, these effects are not considered to be adverse and therefore would not be considered for classifcation for specific organ toxicity classification.
