Administration / exposure
- Route of administration:
- oral: gavage
- Vehicle:
- other: methylcellulose, in water for formulation
- Details on oral exposure:
- The test substance was prepared for administration as a series of graded concentrations in the vehicle. The required amounts of test material were wighed out. Starting with the lowest concentration, the test material was transferred to a mortar and ground to a fine powder. Small amounts of vehicle were added and mixed with the test material to form a smooth paste. The suspension was poured into a measuring cylinder. This was then made to the required volume to provide the correct concentration. The suspension was then mixed using a high shear homogeniser and
transferred to the final issue containers, via syringe, whilst magnetically stirring. The remaining concentrations were made in ascending concentration order. Dosing formulations were prepared weekly and stored at room temperature, protected from light, prior to administration.
The exposure of the animals to the test material was by gavage and was not mixed with the food.
VEHICLE: A similarly constituted Control group received the vehicle 1% MC (methylcellulose, in water for formulation), at the same volume-dose throughout the same period.
The animals were allowed free access to a standard rodent diet (Rat and Mouse No. 1 Maintenance Diet), except overnight before blood sampling for haematology and blood chemistry. This diet contained no added antibiotic or other chemotherapeutic or prophylactic agent.
Potable water taken from the public supply was freely available via polycarbonate bottles fitted with sipper tubes. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- Samples of each formulation prepared for administration during the first and last weeks of treatment (i.e first week in the preliminary phase and last week in the main phase) were analysed for achieved concentration of the test substance. Four samples (nominally 1 mL accurately weighed) were taken from all formulations; two samples were assayed from each formulation. The remaining samples from each formulation were retained frozen (nominally -20°C) as contingency for analysis if required.
The samples were analysed in accordance with the validated Huntingdon Life Sciences Analytical Procedure FIA/M093/10. The analytical method involved dissolution in acetonitrile and further dilution using acetonitrile/water 50/50 v/v followed by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatographic analysis with ultra-violet detection (261 nm). Sample concentrations were determined with reference to external standards prepared in the concentration range 2.0 - 10.0 μg/mL.
At Week 1 and the last week of treatment, freshly prepared test formulations were sampled (4 × 1 mL, accurately weighed) by Pharmacy personnel and submitted for analysis.Duplicate samples were analysed in accordance with the analytical procedure, and the remaining samples were retained for contingency. The contingency samples for Week 1 Group 2 were analysed as the coefficient of variation (CV) was outside the applied limit of 5%. - Duration of treatment / exposure:
- The test substance was administreded over a period of 13 concsecutive weeks. Animals assigned to the recovery phase completed a further four weeks without treatment.
- Frequency of treatment:
- All animals were dosed once each day at approximately the same time eachday, seven days per week.
Doses / concentrations
- Remarks:
- Doses / Concentrations:
0, 50, 250 and 1000 mg/kg/day. Volume dose: 5 ml/kg
Basis:
actual ingested
- No. of animals per sex per dose:
- The study consisted of one Control and three treated groups of rats.
- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- The doses used in this study were selected in conjunction with the Sponsor based on reactions seen in the previous combined oral toxicity and reproductive/developmental toxicity study in rats. In that study, doses of 50, 250 and 1000 mg/kg/day were administered to CD rats. No treatment-related effect was observed. Therefore, NOAEL was considered in rats to be greater than 1000 mg/kg/day and as suche the same doses were considered to be appropriate for this 13 week study. The animals were assigned randomly.
Three groups, each comprising ten males and ten female rats received Sol-DP at the relevant dose. A similarly constituted Control group received the vehicle, 1% MC, at the same volume-dose (10ml/kg). A further five males and five female rats were assigned to each of the Control and high dose groups. These animals were treated for 13 weeks, followed by a 4 weeks period without treatment to assess recovery from any treatment related effect. - Positive control:
- no

Cage side observations checked: Morbidity, mortality, signs of injury, availability of food and water
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS:
Daily during the first week of treatment, twice weekly during Weeks 2 to 4 and weekly thereafter, detailed observations were recorded at the following times in relation to dose administration: Immediately before dosing, immediately after dosing on return of the animal to its cage, on completion of dosing of each group, between one and two hours after completion of the doseing of all groups, as late as possible in the working day. In addition, a more detailed physical examination was performed on each animal to monitor general health. During the acclimation and recovery periods, observations of the animals and their cages were recorded at least once per day.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The oral administration of SOL-DP to Sprague-Dawley (Crl:CD(SD)) rats at doses up to 1000 mg/kg/day for 13-weeks was well tolerated and did not result in any toxicologically significant change. Consequently, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) in this study was considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day.
- Executive summary:
The systemic toxic potential of SOL-DP to Crl:CD(SD) rats by oral gavage administration was assessed over a period of 13 weeks, followed by a 4 week recovery period. Three groups, each comprising ten male and ten female rats received SOL-DP at doses of 50, 250 or 1000 mg/kg/day. A similarly constituted Control group received the vehicle, 1% MC (methylcellulose, in water for formulation), at the same volume-dose (10 mL/kg). A further five male and five female rats were assigned to each of the Control and high dose groups. These animals were treated for 13 weeks, followed by a 4 week period without treatment to assess recovery from any treatment related effect. During the study, clinical condition, detailed physical and arena observations, sensory reactivity, grip strength, motor activity, bodyweight, food consumption, water consumption (visual assessment only), ophthalmic examination, haematology, blood chemistry, organ weight, macropathology and histopathology investigations were undertaken.
The results showed no effect of the test item on any of the endpoints tested; general appearance and behavior, sensory activity, grip strength and motor activity were not affected by treatment and there were no post-dose signs or any treatment-related death. There was no effect of treatment on bodyweight gain or food consumption. A visual assessment of water intake did not reveal any treatment-related change. There were no treatment-related ophthalmic findings. There were no toxicologically significant haematological or biochemical changes in the blood at the Week 13 investigation. There were no treatment-related organ weight, macroscopic or histopathological findings. Based on the results it was concluded that the oral administration of SOL-DP, a flame retardant, to Sprague-Dawley (Crl:CD(SD)) rats at doses up to 1000 mg/kg/day for 13-weeks was well tolerated and did not result in any toxicologically significant change. Consequently, the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) in this study was considered to be 1000 mg/kg/day.
