Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
NOAEL was considered to be 50 mg/kg/day for 3-methylaminopropylamine in rats by oral gavage for 16 days study.
Executive summary:

In a Repeated dose study for 3-methylaminopropylamine in rats by oral gavage. The animals were exposed to 12 dosage daily at the concentration of 0,10 and 50 mg/kg bw/day for 16 days. As no statically significant effects were observed on the clinical sign, food intake, body weight, Haematology, clinical chemistry, gross pathology and histopathology of the treated male and female rats compare to control. Therefore NOAEL was considered to be 50 mg/kg/day for3-methylaminopropylamine in rats by oral gavage for 16 days study.
