- Details on results:
- Histopathology:
At the end of the administration period there were treatment-related renal changes in males, summarized as proximal tubular degeneration. The proximal tubular cells showed rounded intracytoplasmic hyaline inclusions of varying size, some resembling proteinaceous droplets, others resembling (deeply stained) acidophilic bodies. The renal tubules showed cellular degeneration and desquamation of epithelial cells. These changes occurred in males of all treatment groups, and were most severe at the highest dose level. At this level, kidneys also showed an increased number of basophilic tubules, possibly representing tubular regeneration. No tubular degeneration was observed in females. At the end of the 14-day recovery period all top-dose males still showed proximal tubular degeneration, though much less pronounced than at the end of the 28-day treatment period, and increased numbers of basophilic, most probably regenerating, tubules.

Any other information on results incl. tables
At the end of the administration period there were treatment-related renal changes in males, summarized as proximal tubular degeneration. The proximal tubular cells showed rounded intracytoplasmatic hyaline inclusions of varying size, some resembling proteinaceous droplets, others resembling (deeply stained) acidophilic bodies.
The renal tubules showed cellular degeneration and desquamation of epithelial cells.
These changes occurred in males of all treatments groups and were most severe at the highest dose level.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- It can be concluded that the no-toxic-effect level for ED-TCD is 750 ppm (equivalent to about 61 mg/kg body weight/day) for female rats, and at least 75 ppm (equivalent to about 7 mg/kg body weight/day) but lower than 150 ppm (equivalent to about 13 mg/kg body weight/day) for male rats.
