- Control animals:
- yes, concurrent vehicle
- Details on study design:
- - Dose selection rationale: The dose-levels used in this study (0, 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day) were selected on the basis of the results of a 7-day repeated- dose preliminary study in the CD rat. In that study, dose levels of 100, 300 and 1000 mg/kg/day were used. There were no test material-related mortalities and no signs observed, bodyweight performance and food intake were unaffected by administration of the test material and there was no clear effect on organ weights and no macroscopic abnormalities detected. The high dose of 1000 mg/kg/day is considered in most circumstances to be the limit dose for an OECD 421 study and this was selected as no toxicity had been detected in the preliminary study. The low dose of 100 mg/kg/day was chosen anticipated No Observed Adverse Effect Level and the intermediate dose of 300 mg/kg/day was set at a logarithmic interval between the low and high doses.
- Positive control:
- No
Examinations
- Parental animals: Observations and examinations:
- CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS: Yes
Time schedule: Animals were inspected visually at least twice daily for evidence of ill-health or reaction to dosing.
A detailed physical examination was performed on the first day of dosing and weekly thereafter for F0 males until termination, and weekly for F0 females prior to pairing and on Days 0, 7, 14 and 20 after mating and Days 1 and 7 of lactation to monitor general health.
DETAILED CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS: Yes
Time schedule: daily in relation to dose administration during the first week of dosing, twice weekly during the second to fourth weeks of dosing and weekly from Week 5 until termination for males. After mating, these observations were conducted for females on Days 0, 7, 14 and 20 after mating and on Day 4 lactation.
BODY WEIGHT: Yes
- Time schedule for examinations: F0 males were weighed before dosing commenced (Day -1), on the first day of dosing (Week 0) and weekly throughout dosing until termination. F0 females were weighed before dosing commenced (Day -1), on the first day of dosing (Week 0) and weekly until mating was detected. The females were weighed subsequently on Days 0, 6, 13 and 20 after mating and on Days 1, 4 and 7 of lactation.
FOOD CONSUMPTION: Yes
The weight of food supplied to each cage, that remaining and an estimate of any spilled was recorded on a weekly basis from the start of dosing until the animals were paired for mating. From these records the mean daily consumption per animal (g/animal/day) was calculated for each phase, for each cage.
For each F0 female, the weight of food supplied, that remaining and an estimate of any spilled was recorded for the periods Days 0-5, 6-12 and 13-19 after mating and Days 1-3 and 4-6 of lactation. From these records the mean daily consumption (g/animal/day) was calculated for each animal.
WATER CONSUMPTION AND COMPOUND INTAKE: No
PARTURITION OBSERVATIONS AND GESTATION LENGTH
From Day 20 after mating, F0 females were checked three times daily for evidence of parturition. The progress and completion of parturition was monitored.
The duration of gestation was calculated as the time elapsing between the detection of mating and commencement of parturition. - Oestrous cyclicity (parental animals):
- For 15 days before pairing (including the day of pairing), daily vaginal smears were taken from all females, using cotton swabs moistened with saline. The smears were subsequently examined to establish the duration and regularity of the oestrous cycle. After pairing with the male, smearing was continued using pipette lavage, until evidence of mating was observed.
- Sperm parameters (parental animals):
- Not examined
- Litter observations:
- PARAMETERS EXAMINED
The following parameters were examined in F1 offspring:
- Number and sex of pups, stillbirths, live births
- Clinical signs: Daily records were maintained for evidence of ill health or reaction to parental dosing; these were on an individual offspring basis or for the litter as a whole, as appropriate.
- Litter size: Daily records were maintained of mortality and consequent changes in litter size from Days 1-7 of age.
- Sex ratio: The sex ratio of each litter was recorded on Days 1, 4 and 7 of age.
- Bodyweight: Individual offspring bodyweights were recorded on Days 1, 4 and 7 of age.
GROSS EXAMINATION OF DEAD PUPS:
Missing offspring and those grossly autolysed or grossly cannibalised could not be examined. All other offspring killed or dying before Day 7 of age were examined. The necropsy also included an assessment for the presence of milk in the stomach, where this was possible. - Postmortem examinations (parental animals):
- SACRIFICE
- Male animals: All surviving animals were terminated after Day 7 of lactation of the females.
- Maternal animals: All surviving animals were killed on Day 7 of lactation, after confirmation that a second mating was not required.
GROSS NECROPSY
After a review of the history of each animal, a full macroscopic examination of the tissues was performed. All external features and orifices were examined visually. After ventral mid-line incision, the neck and associated tissues and the thoracic, abdominal and pelvic cavities and their viscera were exposed and examined in situ. Any abnormal position, morphology or interaction was recorded. External and cut surfaces of the organs and tissues were examined as appropriate. Any abnormality in the appearance or size of any organ and tissue was recorded and the required tissue samples preserved in appropriate fixative.
For F0 females, the numbers of corpora lutea on each ovary and the numbers of implantation sites in each uterine horn were counted.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
Epididymides (Left and Right)
Ovaries (Left and Right)
Testes (Left and Right)
HISTOPATHOLOGY
For Groups 1 (Control) and 4 (1000 mg/kg/day) the epididymides, ovaries, and testes were examined for parental animals sacrificed on completion of the scheduled dosing period and for the parental animals killed during the study.
Tissues reported at macroscopic examination as being grossly abnormal were examined for all parental animals in line with current practice.
Special emphasis was placed on the stage of spermatogenesis and interstitial testicular cell structure. - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- GROSS NECROPSY
All external features and orifices were examined visually. The cranial roof was removed to allow observation of the brain, pituitary gland and cranial nerves. After ventral mid-line incision, the neck and associated tissues and the thoracic, abdominal and pelvic cavities and their viscera were exposed and examined in situ. Any abnormal position, morphology or interaction was recorded. Any abnormality in the appearance or size of any organ and tissue was recorded and the required tissue samples preserved in appropriate fixative. - Statistics:
- Statistical analyses were performed on the majority of data presented and results of these tests, whether significant or non-significant, are presented on the relevant tables. For some parameters, including pre-coital interval and mating performance and fertility, the similarity of the data was such that analyses were not considered to be necessary.
All statistical analyses were carried out separately for males and females. For adult parameters, the analyses were carried out using the individual animal as the basic experimental unit. For litter/fetal findings the litter was taken as the treated unit and the basis for statistical analysis and biological significance was assessed with relevance to the severity of the anomaly and the incidence of the finding within the background control population - Reproductive indices:
- Percentage mating = Number animals mating / animals paired x 100
Conception rate (%) = Number animals achieving pregnancy / animals mated x 100
Fertility index (%) = Number animals achieving pregnancy / animals pairing x 100
Gestation index (%) = Number of live litters born / Number pregnant x 100 - Offspring viability indices:
- Post-implantation survival index (%) = Total number offspring born / Total number uterine implantation sites x 100
Live birth index (%) = Number live offspring on Day 1 after littering / Total number offspring born x 100
Viability index (%) = Number live offspring on Day 7 after littering /Number live offspring on Day 1 after littering x 100
Percentage males = Number males in litter / Total number offsprings in litter x 100
Results and discussion
Results: P0 (first parental generation)
General toxicity (P0)
- Clinical signs:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- There were no signs of adverse reaction to administration of the test substance during the pre-pairing,
- Mortality:
- mortality observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence):
- One female, assigned to the group receiving 100 mg/kg/day was killed for welfare reasons on Day 4 of dosing due to trauma to the eye, which may have arisen from interaction with cage mates or the cage environment. The finding was considered incidental to administration of the test substance and the cause of the trauma is unclear.
- Body weight and weight changes:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Administration of the test substance had no clear effect on bodyweight during the pre-pairing, gestation and lactation phases.
Bodyweight gain amongst males receiving 300 mg/kg/day and females receiving 100 and 300 mg/kg/day was slightly high during the pre-pairing phase when compared with Controls. However, in the absence of a clear dose response and a consistent effect between the sexes the significance of this is unclear. - Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):

General toxicity (F1)
- Clinical signs:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- There were no test material-related clinical signs recorded amongst the offspring.
- Mortality / viability:
- mortality observed, non-treatment-related
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Parental dosing with the test substance had no effect on mean litter size or offspring survival to Day 7 of age at any dose level investigated.
- Body weight and weight changes:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Mean offspring birth weights were unaffected by parental dosing with the test substance. At 1000 mg/kg/day, bodyweight gain to Day 7 was marginally lower than Controls for both males and females (92% and 88% of control respectively). Much of this difference could be attributed to the lower bodyweight gain of offspring in the larger litters at the high dose level and was considered to be unrelated to dosage withthe test substance.
- Food consumption and compound intake (if feeding study):
- not examined
- Food efficiency:
- not examined
- Water consumption and compound intake (if drinking water study):
- not examined
- Ophthalmological findings:
- not examined
- Haematological findings:
- not examined
- Clinical biochemistry findings:
- not examined
- Urinalysis findings:
- not examined
- Sexual maturation:
- not examined
- Organ weight findings including organ / body weight ratios:
- not examined
- Gross pathological findings:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- Of the few offspring that died during the early post-natal period, most showed an absence of milk in the stomach as the predominant necropsy finding. This finding is common among offspring that die at an early age, and there were no findings observed which indicated a specific reason why these pups failed to thrive.
The type and distribution of findings at necropsy of the offspring that survived to scheduled termination on Day 7 of age did not suggest any adverse effect of dosing of the parental animals with the test substance. - Histopathological findings:
- not examined
- Other effects:
- no effects observed
- Description (incidence and severity):
- There was no clear effect on sex ratio. The percentage of males in the group receiving 100 mg/kg/day was slightly high, however, sex ratio varied widely from 3M:12F to 12M:2F within the study and apparent intergroup differences in mean values are not uncommon in small studies. In the absence of a similar finding in the other dose groups no toxicological significance is attached to this finding.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- It was concluded that the No-Observed-Adverse-Effect-Level (NOAEL) for the substance was 1000 mg/kg/day (the limit dose) for reproductive performance and offspring growth and survival in the CD rat following oral gavage administration in a standard screening test.
- Executive summary:
A reproduction/developmental toxicity screening test was conducted with the test substance according to the OECD test guideline No. 421 and in compliance with Good Laboratory Practice.
Crl:CD®(SD) rats (10/sex/dose level) were dosed once daily by gavage at dose levels of 0, 100, 300, or 1000 mg/kg bw/day (dose volume of 10 mL/kg bw in 1% methylcellulose) for 15 days prior to pairing through to Day 6 after birth of the F1 generation.
During the study, data was recorded on clinical condition, bodyweight, food consumption, oestrous cycles, mating performance and fertility and gestation length. Organ weight, macroscopic and microscopic pathology investigations were undertaken on the adult animals. The clinical condition, litter size and survival, sex ratio and bodyweight of all offspring were assessed before macroscopic pathology investigations were undertaken at necropsy.
There were no test material-related mortalities and no signs considered to be related to administration of the test substance
There was no clear effect on bodyweight during the pre-pairing, gestation and lactation phases. Amongst males receiving 300 mg/kg bw/day and females receiving 100 and 300 mg/kg bw/day bodyweight gain was slightly high during the pre-pairing phase, and to termination for males, when compared with Controls. However, in the absence of a clear dose response and a consistent effect between the sexes the significance of this is unclear. Food consumption was unaffected during the pre-pairing period for both sexes and for females during the gestation and lactation phases.
Oestrous cycle length, mating performance, fertility, parturition, reproductive capacity and gestation length were unaffected by administration of the test substance at all dose levels investigated. Bodyweight gain, survival and development of the offspring to Day 7 of age were also unaffected.
There was no test material related effect on the weights of the testes and epididymides or ovaries, and no test material related macroscopic or microscopic abnormalities were detected in the reproductive organs.
Based on the results of this reproduction/developmental toxicity screening study, it was concluded that for the test substance a dose level of 1000 mg/kg bw/day represented the No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL) for reproduction/developmental toxicity in the CD rat.
