TREATMENT AND SAMPLING TIMES (in addition to information in specific fields):
- After treatment up to the time of sacrifice, the animals were examined for any clinically evident signs of toxicity several times.
DETAILS OF SLIDE PREPARATION:
- The animals were anesthetized with isoflurane, sacrificed by cervical dislocation, and the two femora were then prepared by dissecting and removing all soft tissues.
- After cutting off the epiphyses, the bone marrow was flushed out of the diaphysis into a centrifuge tube using a cannula filled with fetal calf serum.
- The suspension was mixed thoroughly, centrifuged, and the the precipitate was resuspended in fresh FCS.
- One drop of this suspension was dropped onto clean microscopic slides, using a Pasteur pipette. Smears were prepared using slides with ground edges. The preparations were dried in the air and subsequently stained.
- The slides were stained with eosin and methylene blue. After briefly rinsing in deionized water, the preparations were soaked in deionized and subsequently, stained with Giemsa solution.
- After rinsing twice in deionized water and clarifying in xylene, the preparations were then mounted in Corbit-Balsam for analysis.
METHOD OF ANALYSIS: In general, 2000 polychromatic erythrocytes (PCE) were evaluated for the occurrence of micronuclei from each animal of every test group. The normochromatic erythrocytes (= normocytes / NCE) were also scored. The following parameters were recorded:
- Number of polychromatic erythrocytes;
- Number of polychromatic erythrocytes containing micronuclei (for clastogenic or aneugenic effects);
- Number of normochromatic erythrocytes;
- Number of normochromatic erythrocytes containing micronuclei;
- Ratio of polychromatic to normochromatic erythrocytes (an alteration of this ratio indicates that the test substance actually reached the bone marrow, means the target determined for genotoxic effects);
- Number of small micronuclei (d < D/4) and of large micronuclei (d ≥ D/4) [d = diameter of micronucleus, D = cell diameter]; the size of micronuclei may indicate the possible mode of action of the test substance, i.e. a clastogenic effect (d < D/4) or a spindle poison effect (d ≥ D/4). - Evaluation criteria:
- - Acceptance criteria: the mouse micronucleus test is considered valid if (1) the quality of the slides allow the evaluation of a sufficient number of analyzable cells; i. e. ≥ 2000 PCEs per animal and a clear differentiation between PCEs and NCEs; (2) the ratio of PCEs/NCEs in the concurrent vehicle control animals is within the normal range for the animal strain selected; (3) the number of cells containing micronuclei in vehicle control animals is within the range of the historical vehicle control data both for PCEs and for NCEs; the two positive control substances induce a distinct increase in the number of PCEs containing small and/or large micronuclei within the range of the historical positive control data or above.
- Assessment criteria: a finding is considered positive if (1) statistically significant and dose-related increase in the number of PCEs containing micronuclei is obtained; (2) the number of PCEs containing micronuclei exceeds both the concurrent vehicle control value and the range of the historical vehicle control data. A test substance is considered negative if the number of cells containing micronuclei in the dose groups is not statistically significant increased above the concurrent vehicle control value and is within the range of the historical vehicle control data. - Statistics:
- The asymptotic U test according to MANN-WHITNEY (modified rank test according to WILCOXON) was carried out to clarify the question whether there are statistically significant differences between the untreated control group and the treated dose groups with regard to the micronucleus rate in polychromatic erythrocytes. The relative frequencies of cells containing micronuclei of each animal were used as a criterion for the rank determination for the U test. Statistical significances were identified as follows: * p ≤ 0.05; ** p ≤ 0.01. However, both biological relevance and statistical significance were considered together.

- RESULTS OF RANGE-FINDING STUDY
In a pretest for the determination of the acute oral toxicity, the recommended highest dose of 2000 mg/kg bw was tolerated by all animals (male and female) without any signs of toxicity. Thus, only male animals were used for the cytogenetic investigations as requested by the current OECD Guideline. Therefore, a dose of 2000 mg/kg bw was selected as the highest dose in the present cytogenetic study. 1000 mg/kg and 500 mg/kg bw were administered as further doses.
RESULTS OF DEFINITIVE STUDY
- Induction of micronuclei (for Micronucleus assay):
* The single oral administration of the vehicle deionized water led to 1.0‰ polychromatic erythrocytes containing micronuclei after the 24-hour sacrifice interval or to 1.3‰ after the 48-hour sacrifice interval, respectively.
* The highest dose of 2000 mg/kg bw led to 0.7‰ polychromatic erythrocytes containing micronuclei after 24 hours and 1.0‰ after 48 hours.
* In the two lower dose groups, rates of micronuclei of 1.1‰ (1000 mg/kg group) and 0.7‰ (500 mg/kg group) were detected at a sacrifice interval of 24 hours in each case.
* The positive control substance for clastogenicity, cyclophosphamide, led to a statistically significant increase (18.9‰) in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes containing mainly small micronuclei, as expected.
* Vincristine sulfate, a spindle poison, also produced a statistically significant increase (31.7‰) in the number of polychromatic erythrocytes containing micronuclei, with a significant portion increase (11.7‰) attributable to large micronuclei.
* The number of normochromatic erythrocytes containing micronuclei did not differ to any appreciable extent in the vehicle control group or in the various dose groups at any of the sacrifice intervals.
- Ratio of PCE/NCE (for Micronucleus assay) and appropriateness of dose levels and route: a slight change in the ratio of PCE/NCE was observed at 2000 mg/kg body weight at 24-hour preparation interval as indication for target organ toxicity. Therefore, it is shown that the test substance reached the blood / the bone marrow.
