Results and discussion
Test results
- Sex:
- male/female
- Genotoxicity:
- negative
Any other information on results incl. tables
No signs of toxicity were observed in the negative and positive control groups, the treated group at 6, 24, 48 hours in both males and females
except for two animals (105F and 114F) which were moribund after demonstrating signs of dyspnea and inactivity.
These animals were found dead in the morning of day 2.
In addition, one animal (111F) showed some dyspnea and inactivity on day 1 but recovered by day 2.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
For the chromosomal analyses, it would appear that the test substance (W1188.01) did not induce a significant increase in the number
of chromosomal aberrations despite some non-dose related variations among the groups.
Thus, this compound has no clastogenic potential under the conditions
tested.
