- Details on results:
- MortalityNo test article related deaths were noted in this study. One female of group 4 (1000 mg/kg), died on day of scheduled necropsy after blood sampling. This death was considered to be incidental.Clinical signsNo test article related clinical signs of reaction to treatment were noted in all groups.Food consumption/ Relative food consumptionMale and female animals in all dose groups (50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg) had similar food consumption and relative food consumption to those recorded in the respective control animals. No test article related effects were evident.Body weights In alI groups, mean body weights and body weight gain were similar. Up to and including the highest dose level of 1000 mg/kg, the treatment with the test article did not affect the body weight development of animals.Ophthalmoscopic examinationsFew abnormal findings noted, in terms of persistent pupillary membrane in two control animals and in one group 2 (50 mg/kg) female and corneal opacity in one group 4 (1000 mg/kg) female, gave no indications of test article related effects.Hematology/clinical biochemistry/urinalysisAssessment of hematological, clinical biochemistry and urinalysis data indicated no changes of toxicological significance at termination of the treatment nor at the end of the treatment-free recovery period. The only change of note, was a marginal but statistically significant increase of ASAT and ALAT activity in female rats of group 4 (1000 mg/kg) at termination of the treatment. These findings were found to be reversible at termination of the treatment-free recovery period. However, statistical significance at the 5 % level was still noted for ASAT. No toxicological significance is associated with these changes. In addition, the findings were well within limits of the historical control data and there were no morphological findings which would suggest a treatment related effect. All other statistical differences in results of clinical Iaboratory data were considered to be incidental or unrelated to the treatment and of normal biological variation for rats of this strain and age. Organ weights, organ to body weight and organ to brain weight ratiosDifferences in organ weights noted between control animals and animals of the dose groups (50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg) were not considered to be caused by treatment with test article. The few statistically significant differences noted were considered to be incidental.Macroscopic and microscopic findingsIn group 4 (1000 mg/kg), discoloration caused by test article in various segments of the intestinal tract was noted. In addition, one male of this dose group had red-brown discoloration of the lungs. At histopathological examination, this finding was diagnosed as multifocal macrophage accumulations which contained dyestuff particles. This finding was also noted in one other group 4 (1000 mg/kg) male and was presumed to be due to accidental inhalation of the test article.The remainder of macroscopic and microscopic findings were considered to be spontaneous in nature. Neither the types nor the incidences distinguished control animals from treated animals.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In a 28-day study in rats via oral gavage, the substance does not show adverse effects up to the highest tested dose of 1000 mg/kg bw/day.
- Executive summary:
Method
Subacute toxicity study. Daily administration of the substance by gavage to Wistar rats of both sexes at dose levels of 0, 50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg bw/day for a period of 28 days. The number of animals in each group was 10, 5, 5 and 10 per sex, respectively. After termination of the treatment period half of the animals of the control group and of the high dose group were observed for a further 14 -day treatment-free recovery period.
Result
Up to and including the highest dose level of 1000 mg/kg, there was no test article related deaths or clinical signs of reaction to-treatment and no effects on the food consumption or body weight development of the animals. At ophthalmoscopic examinations, no test article related abnormal findings were noted. The recording of the organ weights gave no indications of test article related effects.
The assessment of hematological , clinical biochemical and urinalysis data indicated a single change of note: at 1000 mg/kg, there was a marginal but statistically significant increase of the aspartate aminotransferase (ASAT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) activity in female rats at termination of the treatment. These findings were found to be reversible at termination of the treatment-free recovery period. No toxicological significance is considered to be associated with these findings.
At macroscopical and microscopical examination, there were no morphological alterations which gave evidence of toxic effects.
At 1000 mg/kg, discoloration caused by the test article in various segments of the intestinal tract was noted. In addition, one male had red-brown discoloration of the lungs. At histopathologic examination, this finding was diagnosed as multifocal macrophage accumulations which contained dyestuff particles. The same finding was also noted in one other male of the same group and was presumed to be due to accidental inhalation of the test article.
Based upon these results, the no-observed-adverse-effect level was considered to be 1000 mg/kg body weight for male and female rats when administered orally by gavage.
