Examinations
- Parental animals: Observations and examinations:
- DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
- Time schedule: at least once daily (frequency was increased when signs of toxicity were observed)
Behavioural changes, signs of difficult or prolonged parturition and all signs of toxicity, including mortality, were recorded.
BODY WEIGHT: Yes
- Time schedule for examinations: Males and females were weighed on the first day of dosing, weekly thereafter and at termination. During gestation, females were weighed on days 0, 7, 14 and 20, and within 24 hours of parturition (day 0 or 1 post-partum) and day 4 post-partum. Body weights were recorded individually for each adult animal.
The pups were weighed within 24 hours of parturition (day 0 or 1 post-partum) and on day 4 post-partum.
FOOD CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE (if feeding study):
- Food consumption for each animal was recorded weekly during the pre-mating period, daily during gestation and on day 4 post-partum.
- Food intake per rat (g/rat/week) was calculated using the total amount of food given to and left by each rat in each group upon completion of a treatment week (pre-mating and gestation) or treatment period (lactation). The relative food consumption (in g/kg b.w./day) was determined
WATER CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE (if drinking water study): Yes
- Time schedule for examinations: daily
REPRODUCTIVE PARAMETERS:
- Number of pregnant females
- Pre-coital time
- Gestation length
- Corpora lutea: number per dam, distribution in the uterine horns, absolute number per group, mean per group
- Implantation sites: number per dam, distribution in the uterine horns, absolute number per group, mean per group - Litter observations:
- - Number of pups absolute: at birth (alive and dead), after 4 days of life
- Number of pups per dam (male/female/total): at birth, after 4 days of life
- Number of stillbirths: absolute, per dam
- Number of pups with malformations: absolute per dam
- Live pups were counted and sexed within 24 hours of parturition (day 0 or 1 post-partum) and on day 4 post partum. Any abnormal behaviour of the offspring was recorded. - Postmortem examinations (parental animals):
- - macroscopically examination for any abnormalities or pathological changes at the time of sacrifice
females:
- numbers of implantation sites and corpora lutea
- apparently non-pregnant uteri (placed in a 10% aqueous solution of ammonium sulfide for about 10 minutes to stain possible implantation sites in the endometrium according to SALEWSKI)
males:
- testes and epididymides were weighed
males/females:
- ovaries (2), testes (2), epididymides (2), accessory sex organs (coagulating gland, preputial gland, prostate, seminal vesicle, uterus (incl. cervix and oviducts), vagina) and all organs showing macroscopic lesions were preserved (testes and epididymides were preserved in Bouin's fixative, the remaining tissues were preserved in 7% buffered formalin)
Detailed histopathological examination was performed on the ovaries, testes and epididymides (with special emphasis on the qualitative stages of spermatogenesis and histopathology of intestitial testicular structure) of the adult animals of the control and the high dose group following haematoxylin-eosin and PAS staining (testes and epididymides). - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- All pups sacrificed at day 4 post-partum and all prematurely deceased pups (pups found dead in the cage) were carefully examined externally for gross abnormalities.
- Statistics:
- For all numerical values homogeneity of variances was tested by using the BARTLETT chi-square test. If the variances were homogeneous, the DUNNETT test (p ≤ 0.01) was used to compare the experimental groups with the control group. In case of heterogeneity of variances, the STUDENT's t-test was carried out, limit of significance was p ≤ 0.01.
For the comparison of classification measurements the following statistical methods were employed (the limits of significance were p ≤ 0.05 and p ≤ 0.01):

- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- salivation and breathing sounds at 60 and 200 mg 400112/kg for male and females; for one male rat also at 20 mg 400112/kg
- Mortality:
- mortality observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence):
- Two males treated with 200 mg 400112/kg bw/day died prematurely. The deceased animals revealed pilo-erection, a decreased body temperature, reduced motility, a thickened abdomen, a pale appearance, an anus smeared with faeces, reduced water consumption
and/or pultaceous faeces on several days before death. Necropsy revealed gastric and/or intestinal lesions.
Three of 12 female rats treated with 60 mg 400112/kg b.w./day and 5 of 12 female rats treated with 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day died prematurely. Pilo-erection, breathing sounds, a haemorrhagic nose and snout, slightly reduced motility, a thickened abdomen, pultaceous faeces and/or a pale appearance were observed for all animals or individual animals on one to several days before death. Necropsy revealed gastric and/or intestinal lesions in all prematurely deceased female animals. - Body weight and weight changes:
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- The body weight of male animals treated with 60 or 200 mg WS400112/kg b.w./day was below the body weight of the control group from approximately test day 15 onwards (by up to 12%, partly statistically significant at p ≤ 0.01 or p ≤ 0.05). The body weight at autopsy was reduced accordingly.
The body weight of female animals treated with 60 or 200 mg WS400112/kg b.w./day was reduced by up to 9% during gestation (p ≤ 0.01). During the lactation period, only the high-dose group was affected by a decrease of up to 9% (p ≤ 0.01). The body weight at autopsy was reduced accordingly. - Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
- effects observed, treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- relative food intake: males treated with 60 or 200 mg 400112/kg bw/day - reduction by up to 12% compared to the control. Females treated with 200 mg 400112/kg bw/day: reduction by up to 17% compared to the control.

Reproductive function / performance (P0)
- Reproductive function: oestrous cycle:
- not examined
- Reproductive function: sperm measures:
- not examined
- Reproductive performance:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- no test item-related influence was noted on the pre-coital time, the female fertility index and the gestation length of the animals treated with 20, 60 or 200 mg 400112/kg bw/day compared to the control (see Tables 5, 6, and 7 in "overall remarsk, attached background material").
Details on results (P0)
Mortality:
Two males treated with 200 mg 400112/kg bw/day died prematurely. Three of 12 female rats treated with 60 mg 400112/kg b.w./day and 5 of 12 female rats treated with 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day died prematurely.
Macroscopic changes:
Macroscopic changes were noted in form of an dilated stomach filled with yellowish liquid and a dilated and empty intestine for one surviving male animal treated with 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day. Further, a haemorrhagic nose, a thickened abdomen and an anus soiled with faeces were noted for this animal. These findings were probably caused by the corrosive properties of the test item.
Epididymides weights:
Absolute epididymides weights of the animals treated with 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day appeared to be slightly reduced by 15% for the left and by 7% for the right epididymis. However, this slight change is not considered to be a specific effect on the reproduction organs but to be caused by the stress exerted by the general toxicity of 400112 and not by the test item per se.
Reproduction parameters of the dams:
No differences were noted on any of the reproduction parameters such as the number of corpora lutea, implantation sites, pups at birth (alive and dead), stillbirths and live-born pups of the female animals treated with 20, 60 or 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day. No changes were noted for the birth index, the live birth index, and the pre- and post-implantation loss in the dosed groups.
No runts were observed in the litters of the F0 generation in any dose group. One runt noted in the control group is considered as coincidental. No abortion or any malformed foetuses were noted in any of the tested dose groups including the control.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The aim of the study was to obtain information on possible effects of 400112 on reproduction and/or development following oral administration to rats. Therefore an OECD 421 guideline study was performed.
No differences were noted on any of the reproduction parameters up to a dose level of 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day.
No differences were noted up to a dose level of 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day on the growth and development of the offspring until sacrifice on day 4 postpartum.
The following no-observed-adverse-effect Ievels were noted:
Effects on the parental animals
NOAEL (no-observed-adverse-effect Ievel): 20 mg 400112/kg b.w./day, p.o.
Effects on reproduction
NOAEL (no-observed-adverse-effect Ievel): > 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day, p.o.
Effects on the F1 pups
NOAEL (no-observed-adverse-effect Ievel): > 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day, p.o. - Executive summary:
The aim of the experiment was to obtain information on possible effects of the test item 400112 on reproduction and/or development. The test item was administered orally to rats at dose levels of 20, 60 and 200 mg/kg b.w./day during the pre-mating, mating and post-mating periods to parental males as well as during the pre-mating, mating, gestation and lactation periods until day 3 post-partum to parental female animals.
Effects on the parental generation
Three of 12 female rats treated with 60 mg 400112/kg b.w./day and 2 of 12 male and 5 of 12 female rats treated with 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day died prematurely. The deaths are regarded as test item-related as necropsy revealed gastric and/or intestinal lesions in nearly all deceased animals. Several signs of systemic toxicity were noted from the intermediate dose of 60 mg 400112/kg b.w./day onwards among which the most frequent were salivation, pilo-erection and breathing sounds. Further, the body weight and the food consumption were slightly but partly statistically significantly reduced. The macroscopic inspection of the surviving male and female animals at the end of the treatment period did not reveal any test-tem related changes except for gastrointestinal lesions in one high-dose animal only. No specific effect of on the reproduction organs was noted for 400112. Slightly reduced absolute epididymides weights at 200 mg/kg b.w./day are considered to be caused by the stress exerted by the general toxicity and not by the test itemper se. The histomorphological examination of the ovaries, testes and epididymis of the high-dose animals did not reveal test-item related changes.
Effects on reproduction
No differences were noted on any of the reproduction parameters up to a dose level of 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day.
Effects on the F1 pups
No differences were noted up to a dose level of 200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day on the growth and development of the offspring until sacrifice on day 4 postpartum.
The following no-observed-adverse-effect Ieveis were noted:
Effects on the parental animals
NOAEL (no-observed-adverse-effect level): 20 mg 400112/kg b.w./day, p.o.
Effects on reproduction
NOAEL (no-observed-adverse-effect level): >200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day, p.o.
Effects on the F1 pups
NOAEL (no-observed-adverse-effect level): >200 mg 400112/kg b.w./day, p.o.
