Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- - Vehicle(s)/solvent(s) used: purified water
- Justification for choice of solvent/vehicle: As per the Sponsor information, purified water was used as the vehicle based on good workability/solubility of the test substance in the vehicle and compatibility of the vehicle with the test system.
- Concentration of test material in vehicle: - Details on exposure:
- PREPARATION OF DOSING SOLUTIONS:The test substance was prepared prior to dose administration. Each concentration was prepared by mixing an appropriate amount of the test substance with the appropriate volume of the vehicle. The mixtures were vortexed, if needed, homogenized and stirred in order to achieve workable or soluble formulations.
The samples of the dosing formulations were not collected, and analysis of accuracy of preparation, homogeneity or stability of the formulations was not performed. However, by following the standard operating procedures of the laboratory it was to believe that the formulations were within commonly acceptable range of +/-20 % of target.
Animals received 20ml/kg via oral gavage. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- Animals received a single oral gavage administration.
- Frequency of treatment:
- Animals were treated once.

- CRITERIA FOR DOSE SELECTION:
A dose range finding study was used to determine the doses to be used in the definitive study. In the dose range-finding study, a highest guideline recommended dose of 2000 mg/kg was administered to mice five male and five female mice. If mortality occurred at this dose level, additional dose levels were tested. Mice were observed after dose administration and each day thereafter for 3 days for clinical signs of toxicity. Body weights were recorded prior to dose administration (Study Day 0) and on Study Days 1 and 3 (prior to euthanasia). Following observation period, all surviving animals were euthanized by carbon dioxide inhalation followed by incision of the diaphragm, and discarded without further examination. If 2000 mg/kg produced no treatment related morality, the high dose for the definitive micronucleus test would be 2000 mg/kg. Otherwise, the high dose would be the maximum tolerated dose. To additional doses, one half and one-fourth of the high dose, would be tested.
DETAILS OF SLIDE PREPARATION:
In the definitive study, approximately 24 and 48 hours after dose administration, animals were euthanized by carbon dioxide inhalation followed by incision of the diaphragm. Animals in the positive control group were euthanized 24 hours after treatment. Immediately following euthanasia, the femurs were exposed, cut just above the knee and the bone marrow was aspirated into a syringe containing fetal bovine serum. The bone marrow cells were transferred to a labelled centrifuge tube containing approximately 1 mL fetal bovine serum.
The bone marrow cells were pelleted by centrifugation and the supernatant was drawn off, leaving a small amount of fetal bovine serum with the remaining cell pellet. The cells were resuspended and a small drop of the bone marrow suspension was spread onto a clean glass slide. Each slide as identified by the experiment and animals number. At least two slides were prepared from each animal, air dried and fixed by dipping in methanol. One set of slides was stained with May-Gruenwald-Giemsa, permanently mounted and use d for microscopic evaluation. The other set of slides (not stained) was kept as a backup set.
METHOD OF ANALYSIS:
Slides were coded using a random number table by an individual not involved with the scoring process. Using a light microscope and a medium magnification (400X), an area of acceptable quality was selected such that the cells were well spread and stained. The following cell populations and cell components were recorded using oil immersion (1000X):
1. 2000 polychromatic erythrocytes (PCEs) which are immature erythrocytes were scored per animal for the presence of micronuclei resulting in evaluation of 10000 PCEs per group.
2. The number of micronucleated normochromatic erythrocytes in the field of 2000 polychromatic erythrocytes were also enumerated, but were not used to evaluate the response of the test substance.
3. The proportion of polychromatic erythrocytes to total erythrocytes were determined per total of 1000 erythrocytes (PCEs/ECs ratio) for each animal.
4. In the event of high reduction and suppression in PCEs/ECs ration, it may not have been possible to evaluate 2000 PCEs per animal for the presence of micronuclei. - Evaluation criteria:
- See below.
- Statistics:
- Statistical analysis of data was performed using the Kastenbaum-Bowman tables which are based on the binomial distribution.

- RESULTS OF RANGE-FINDING STUDY
- Dose range:
500, 750, 1000 and 2000 mg/kg bw
- Clinical signs of toxicity in test animals:
2000 mg/kg bw: mortality observed in all mice
1000 mg/kg bw: mortality observed in 1/5 males and 3/5 females + piloerection in suriving mice
750 mg/kg bw: mortality observed in 1/5 males and 2/5 females + piloerection in suriving mice
500 mg/kg bw: no mortality observed, piloerection in all mice following administration on Day 1
- Evidence of cytotoxicity in tissue analysed:
not reported
- Rationale for exposure:
2000 mg/kg bw is the maximum regulatory recommended dose for bone marrow micronucleus assays; and the LD50 oral dose was 2886 mg/kg bw.
Based on the mortality observed in the DRF study, a dose of 500 mg/kg was determined to be the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for the main study.
RESULTS OF DEFINITIVE STUDY
- Induction of micronuclei (for Micronucleus assay):
No statistically significant increase in the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in test substance groups relative to the respective control groups was observed in male or female mice at 24 or 48 hours after dose administration (p>0.05, binomial distribution, Kastenbaum-Bowman Tables)
- Ratio of PCE/EC (for Micronucleus assay):
No appreciable reduction in the ratio of polychromatic erythrocytes to total erythrocytes in the test substance groups relative to the concurrent vehicle control groups were observed at 24 or 48 hours post-dose.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In an in vivo micronucleus test on mouse bone marrow erythrocytes, performed according to OECD 474, the animals were exposed orally (via gavage) with 125, 250 and 500 mg/kg. This did not induce a statistically positive increase in micronuclei in the hemopoietic cells of the mouse bone marrow at the time intervals evaluated under the experimental condition of this assay. No toxicity was observed. Vehicle and positive controls were valid.
- Executive summary:
The test substance was evaluated for its genotoxic potential (clastogenicity/aneugenicity) as measured by its ability to increase the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in bone marrow of male and female ICR mice
The following results were generated:
• No mortality was observed in any of the treatment groups during the study period. All mice in the control substance groups and in the test substance groups at 125 and 250 mg/kg appeared normal during the study period. Piloerection was seen in mice at 500 mg/kg.
• No appreciable reductions in the ratio of p>olychromatic erythrocytes to total erythrocytes in the test substance groups relative to the concurrent vehicle control groups were observed at 24 or 48 hours post-dose, suggesting that the test substance did not induce erythropoiesis.
• No stafistically significant increase in the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes in test substance groups relative to the respective vehicle control groups was observed in male or female mice at 24 or 48 hours after dose administration (p > 0.05, Kastenbaum-Bowman Tables).
• CP, the positive control, induced a statistically significant increase in the incidence of micronucleated PCEs (p< 0.05, Kastenbaum-Bowman Tables) in both male and female mice. The number of micronucleated PCEs in the vehicle control groups did not exceed the historical vehicle control range. Based upon this, all criteria for a valid test were met as specified in the protocol.
