Examinations
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- Animals were checked for mortality and signs of moribundity twice daily. Each animal was given a clinical examination weekly, including palpation for tissue masses or swelling. Body weight and feed consumption data were recorded weekly.
- Sacrifice and pathology:
- Those animals that were judged moribund were killed and necropsied. At the end of the 13-week study, all survivors and all animals found dead, unless precluded in whole or in part by autolysis or cannibalism, were necropsied.
Examinations performed in the control and high dose groups included: gross lesions, tissue masses, abnormal lymph nodes, skin, mandibular lymph nodes, mammary gland, salivary gland, thigh muscle, bone marrow, thymus, trachea, lungs and bronchi, heart, thyroid, parathyroid, esophagus, stomach, duodenum, jejunum, ileum, colon, mesenteric lymph nodes, liver, pancreas, spleen, kidneys, adrenals, bladder, seminal vesicles/prostate/testes or ovaries/uterus, brain, and pituitary.

- Histopathological findings: neoplastic:
- no effects observed
- Details on results:
- There were no mortalities during the 13-week study period.
Mean body weight gain was reduced more than 10% in animals receiving the 7500 ppm diet, relative to control animals. However, average daily feed consumption at 7500 ppm was higher than that of the control group.
Seventy-100% of rats receiving the 3800 or 7500 ppm diets had gross distention of the cecum and reddened gastric mucosa, although no compound-related histopathologic effects were observed in the cecum, stomach, or any other tissues examined.

Based on the results of the 13-week study, doses of 1000 and 2000 ppm stannous chloride in feed were selected for the chronic, 105-week study.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- In a 13-week repeated dose study with F344/N rats, 70-100% of rats receiving the 3800 or 7500 ppm diets had gross distention of the cecum and reddened gastric mucosa, although no compound-related histopathologic effects were observed in the cecum, stomach, or any other tissues examined. A NOEL of 1900 ppm (187 mg/kg bw/day) was determined based on the effects seen at 3800 ppm.
Based on the results of the 13-week study, doses of 1000 and 2000 ppm stannous chloride in feed were selected for the chronic, 105-week study. - Executive summary:
A thirteen-week study was conducted to evaluate the cumulative toxicity of stannous chloride and to determine the concentrations of stannous chloride to be used in chronic studies. Male and female F344/N rats were fed diets containing 0, 500, 1000, 1900, 3800 or 7500 ppm. Seventy to 100% of rats receiving the 3800 or 7500 ppm diets had gross distention of the cecum and reddened gastric mucosa, although no compound-related histopathologic effects were observed in the cecum, stomach, or any other tissues examined. A NOEL of 1900 ppm (187 mg/kg bw/day) was determined based on the effects seen at 3800 ppm.
Based on the results of the 13-week study, doses of 1000 and 2000 ppm stannous chloride in feed were selected for the chronic, 105-week study.
