Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The LOAEL value of orally administered test chemical in Long-Evans rats was determined to be 150mg/kg bw.
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted with rats to determine the effects of intake of the test chemical. A total of 27 animals were used in this study. Females were bred to normal males, wherein the test chemical was added to the diet during the latter portion of gestation and the females were permitted to litter normally. The effect of the treatment on gestation period, lactation and survival of the young was observed. It was observed that, gestation time for rats was not affected ; however, prolonged parturition was observed in rats. In fetal parameters, average mortality was slightly greater of young from those fed with the test chemical, while the weaning weight was significantly less than that of controls. In other experiment, the female rats were re-bred after removal of dietary intake of the test chemical. It was observed that the females gave birth and nursed litters normally. Thus, from all the oabove observations, LOAEL was found to be 150 mg/kg bw and it is likely to be regarded that there is no reproductive toxicity at concentrations lower than 150 mg/kg bw when administered orally.
