Samples of the following tissues and organs were collected from all animals at necropsy and fixed in 10% buffered formalin (neutral phosphate buffered 4% formaldehyde solution):
Identification marks: not processed
Ovaries, Adrenal glands, Pancreas, Aorta, Peyer's patches [jejunum, ileum] if detectable, Brain [cerebellum, mid-brain, cortex], Pituitary gland, Caecum,
(Preputial gland), Cervix, Prostate gland, (Clitoral gland), Rectum, Colon, (Salivary glands - mandibular, sublingual), Duodenum, Sciatic nerve, Epididymides, Seminal vesicles, (Eyes with optic nerve [if detectable] and (Skeletal muscle), Harderian gland), (Skin) , (Female mammary gland area), Spinal cord -cervical, midthoracic, lumbar, (Femur including joint), Spleen, Heart, Sternum with bone marrow, Ileum, Stomach, Jejunum, Testes, Kidneys, Thymus, (Larynx), Thyroid including parathyroid [if detectable], (Lacrimal gland, exorbital), (Tongue), Liver, Trachea, Lung, infused with formalin, Urinary bladder, Lymph nodes - mandibular, mesenteric, Uterus, (Nasopharynx), Vagina, Oesophagus, All gross lesions
Tissues/organs mentioned in parentheses were not examined by the pathologist since there were no changes in macroscopic appearance indicative of (potential) toxicity.
The following organ weights (and terminal body weight) were recorded from the animals on the scheduled day of necropsy: Adrenal glands, Brain, Epididymides, Heart, Kidneys, Liver, Spleen, Testes, Thymus
HISTOPATHOLOGY:
- all tissues collected at the scheduled sacrifice from all group 1 and 4 animals,
- all gross lesions. - Other examinations:
- None
- Statistics:
- - If the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution, the Dunnett-test1 (many-to-one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
- The Steel-test2 (many-to-one rank test) was applied when the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
- The exact Fisher-test3 was applied to frequency data.
All tests were two-sided and in all cases p < 0.05 was accepted as the lowest level of significance. Group means were calculated for continuous data and medians were calculated for discrete data (scores) in the summary tables. Test statistics were calculated on the basis of exact values for means and pooled variances.

- Details on results:
- Red staining of various body parts (shoulder, head, flank, back, neck, cervical region, chest
and/or generalized staining) and red faeces were noted among all groups treated with the test
substance.
Red staining of various body parts, red faeces and reddish contents of the gastro-intestinal tract
noted among all groups treated with the test substance was considered to be related to staining
properties of the test substance, and not to represent signs of systemic toxicity. No correlation
histopathological abnormalities were noted.
Incidental findings that were noted included rales, alopecia, scabs and a wound on the cheek.
These findings were considered to be within the normal range of clinical signs in rats of this age
and strain which are housed and treated under the conditions in this study. At the incidence
observed, these were considered signs of no toxicological significance.
No toxicologically significant changes in body weights and body weight gain were noted.
The statistically significant higher body weight gain of females at 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day in
week 2 occurred in the absence of a time- and dose-related response, and was of a very slight
nature. No toxicological relevance was ascribed to this change.
No toxicologically relevant changes occurred in haematological parameters of treated rats.
Any statistically significant changes in haematological parameters were considered to be of no
toxicological significance as they occurred in the absence of a treatment-related distribution,
remained within the range considered normal for rats of this age and strain and occurred in the
absence of supportive haematological changes. These changes consisted of higher reticulocyte
counts in males at 1000 mg/kg/day, higher methaemoglobin levels in females at 100 mg/kg/day
and higher, and lower mean corpuscular volume in females at 100 and 1000 mg/kg/day.
No toxicologically relevant changes occurredin clinical biochemistry parameters of treated rats.
Any statistically significant changes in clinical biochemistry parameters were considered to be of
no toxicological significance as they occurred in the absence of a treatment-related distribution
and remained within the range considered normal for rats of this age and strain. These changes
consisted of lower albumin levels in males at 300 mg/kg/day, higher cholesterol levels in males
at 100 mg/kg/day, higher total protein levels and lower urea levels in females at 100 mg/kg/day,
and lower inorganic phosphate levels in females at 100 and 1000 mg/kg/day.
A noticeably high aspartate aminotransferase activity level (ASAT) and glucose level was noted
for male no. 10 and 12 respectively. The incidence of these high levels was unrelated to the
dose, and therefore considered to be of no toxicological significance.
Reddish contents of the gastro-intestinal tract were observed among all animals treated with the
test substance.
Red staining of various body parts, red faeces and reddish contents of the gastro-intestinal tract
noted among all groups treated with the test substance was considered to be related to staining
properties of the test substance, and not to represent signs of systemic toxicity. No correlation
histopathological abnormalities were noted.
Incidental findings included a gray-white focus on the right lateral lobe of the liver, fluid in the
uterus and scab formation on the skin. These findings are occasionally seen among rats used in
these types of studies. In the absence of a treatment-related distribution they were considered
changes of no toxicological significance.
No toxicologically significant changes were noted in any of the parameters investigated in this
study (i.e. clinical appearance, functional observations, body weight, food consumption, clinical
laboratory investigations, macroscopic examination, organ weights, and microscopic
examination).
From the results presented in this report a definitive No-Observed-(Adverse)-Effect Level
(NO(A)EL) for PIGMENT RED 112 of 1000 mg/kg/day was established.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The toxicity of the test item when given by oral administration (gavage) to groups of 5 rats per sex per dose for 28 consecutive days at dosages of 0, 100, 300 or 1000 mg/kg bw/day, for 7 days/week have been investigated. No toxicologically significant changes were noted in any of the parameters investigated in this study (i.e. clinical appearance, functional observations, body weight, food consumption, clinical laboratory investigations, macroscopic examination, organ weights, and microscopic examination). Red staining of various body parts, red faeces and reddish contents of the gastro-intestinal tract noted among all groups treated with the test substance was considered to be related to staining properties of the test substance, and not to represent signs of systemic toxicity. No correlating histopathological abnormalities were noted. On the basis of these results, the high dose level of 1000 mg/kg/day was considered to be the No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) for the test substance.
