Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Effects on fertility

Description of key information

In a GLP OECD 422 study, Bourgeonal was administered via oral gavage to male and female Crl:CD(SD) Sprague Dawley rats once daily beginning before cohabitation, through mating and continuing for at least 28 days (male rats) or through parturition until Day 12 of lactation (female rats) at doses of 0.5, 1, or 5 mg/kg/dose. Administration of Bourgeonal did not produce any mortality or clinical signs in the P generation males or females at any dose. There were no Bourgeonal related effects on mating and fertility in the P generation males or females or any effects on estrous cycling and natural delivery parameters in the P generation females. There were no Bourgeonal-related differences in any preweaning developmental parameter evaluated in the F1generation offspring. Furthermore, there were no Bourgeonal-related macroscopic or microscopic findings or alterations in the organ weights in the P generation adults or F1generation pups. Based on these findings, the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) for general toxicity, mating, and fertility for Bourgeonal in P generation males and females was 5 mg/kg/dose. The NOAEL for development of the F1 generation offspring was also 5 mg/kg/dose.

Effects on developmental toxicity

Effect on developmental toxicity: via oral route
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available
Effect on developmental toxicity: via inhalation route
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available
Effect on developmental toxicity: via dermal route
Endpoint conclusion:
no study available

Toxicity to reproduction: other studies

Description of key information

No other study available

Justification for classification or non-classification

Following an ECHA decision, a GLP OECD 422 guideline study in rats by gavage was performed on Bourgeonal itself. No reproductive or developmental effects were observed at non systemically toxic dose levels.

Based on the data available on Bourgeonal, no classification for reproductive toxicity is deemed necessary according to the (EC) No 1272/2008 Regulation (CLP).
