- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
Two control animals (4M, 44F)) and one high-dose animal (33M) were found dead an days 12,3 and 3 respectively. These mortalities are considered to be incidental and not related to the application of the test material. The high-dose animal and the control female were found dead when the bandages were removed and it is thought that the cause of death was that the bandage was bound too tightly. The cause of death in the control male was probably a focal pneumonitis
No treatment-related clinical changes throughout the treatment period that could be ascribed to the test article.
On a few occasions, kinked tail, incrusted eyes, pinched off teeth, injuries at skull or ears, fur staining, lesions of skin and red fluid in the bedding material were recorded. These findings are considered to be unrelated to treatment.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
There were no adverse effects on body weight gain in animals of either sex.
FOOD CONSUMPTION
There were no adverse effects on overall food consumption throughout the experimental period in male and female animals
OPHTHALMOSCOPIC EXAMINATION
There were no treatment-related findings
HAEMATOLOGY
Although statistical evaluation revealed a few significantly different minimal changes, there were no treatment-related findings observed at the end of the experimental period
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
Although statistical evaluation revealed a few significantly different minimal changes, there were no treatment-related findings observed at the end of the experimental period
URINALYSIS
There were no treatment-related urine analysis findings at the end of the experimental period
ORGAN WEIGHTS
Although there were a few significant values for single organs in different groups, there were no apparent organ weight changes in animals of either sex when compared with the control group.
GROSS PATHOLOGY
Skin observations: see table 3
Male animals
There were no skin lesions in group 2, minimal individual reactions of single animals in group 3 and numerous individual reactions in the majority of all high-dose males throughout the experimental period.
Cutaneous reactions observed at the high dose level included, above all, slight to moderate erythema and desquamation, slight edema and atonia as well as eschar formation. Fissures and exfoliation were not observed in any animal.Group mean total score for local reactions revealed only slight cutaneous reactions (grade: 0.3) for high-dose males.
Female animals
There were minimal individual skin reactions in single group 2 animals, few reactions in some group 3 animals and numerous individual reactions in the majority of all high-dose females throughout the experimental period.
Cutaneous reactions observed included, above all, dose-related slight to moderate erythema and desquamation, slight edema and atonia as well as eschar formation. Fissures and exfoliation were not observed in any animal.
Group mean total score for local reactions revealed only minimal changes for group 3 (grade: 0.1) and slight changes for high-dose females (grade: 0.4).
General Pathology:
There were no macroscopic lesions in any of the organs or tissues examined that could be ascribed to the test article Acticide 14.
The only treatment-related findings were compound-related lesions such as inflammation, parakeratosis and acanthosis in the treated skin sites of males and females.
There were no histopathological lesions in the other organs and tissues suggestive of systemic target organ toxicity due to the test article.
No treatment-related changes were found in decedents and a relationship between the causes of death and test article toxicity could not be established. The cause of death of the male group 1 (4M) was probably a focal pneumonitis. In the other two animals (44F, group 1 and 33M, group 4) the cause of death was probably due to stress or other unspecified causes.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In the absence of any organ or systemic toxicity, the dermal treatment-related effects of Acticide 14 were limited to local skin reactions.
NOAEL (systemic toxicity): 18.75 mg/kg bw/day (=2.625 mg a.i./kg bw/day)
NOAEL (local irritation): 0.75 mg/kg bw/day (males; =0.105 mg a.i./kg bw/day)/none observed (females) - Executive summary:
The toxic potential of a13.9 % aqueous solution of a 3:1 mixture of 5 -chloro-2 -methyl-2H-isothiazol-3 -one and 2 -methyl-2H-isothiazol-3 -one in water (named Acticide 14 in this study report) was evaluated in a 90 day repeated dose dermal toxicity study in rats according to EPA OPP 82 -3 guideline. Male and female Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with the test item on exposed skin daily for 6 hours over a period of 90 days. The test article was kept in place and prevented from oral ingestion by means of a semi-occlusive dressing for exposure and remainders of the test item were then removed with water. The animals were observed for mortality, clinical signs, body weight gain and food consumption. At the end of the tretament period, blood and urine were collected for haematology and clinical chemistry. The animals were subjected to detailed macroscopic and microscopic pathological evaluation, including scoring of observed skin abnormalities.
Mortalities observed in two control animals and one high-dose male are considered to be incidental and not related to the application of the test material. Treatment with the test article Acticide 14 applied dermally to intact skin produced skin reactions (slight to moderate erythema and desquamation, slight edema and atonia as well as eschar formation) with dose-dependent grades of severity. Females appeared to be more sensitive than males. There were no other effects at the end of the treatment period that could be attributed to ACTICIDE 14.
NOAEL (local, male rat): 0.75 mg Acticide 14/kg bw/day
NOAEL (local, female rat): none observed
NOAEL (systemic): 18.75 mg Acticide 14/kg bw/day
