Test animals

Species:

rat

Strain:

Wistar

Sex:

male/female

Details on test animals or test system and environmental conditions:

Environmental conditions: The animals were kept in air conditioned rooms with 10-15 air circulation cycle per hour, temperature between 22-250C, relative humidity 40-60% and illumination cycle set to 12 hours artificial fluorescent light and 12 hours dark.

Accommodation: Groups of five animals of similar sex in polypropylene cages with stainless steel grill top, facilities for food and water bottle and bedding of clean paddy husk.

Diet: Pelleted feed supplied by Pranav agro Industries Ltd., B7/6 Ramesh Nagar, Delhi, India

Water: Community tap water passed through ‘Aqua Guard on line water filter’, was kept in glass bottles, ad-libitum

Administration / exposure

Type of coverage:

occlusive

Vehicle:

water

Details on exposure:

The three dose levels of test compound (62.5, 250 & 1000 mg/kg b.wt) were used to confirm the sub acute dermal toxicity. The 1000 mg/kg b.wt is the highest dose for sub acute toxicity study

Duration of treatment / exposure:

28 days

Frequency of treatment:

The test substance was applied uniformly daily over an area approximately 10 per cent of the total body surface area in graduated doses for a period of 28 days. Between applications the test substance is held in contact with the skin with a porous gauze dressing and non-irritating tape. The test site was covered in a suitable manner to retain the gauze dressing and test substance and ensure that the animals cannot ingest the test substance.

No. of animals per sex per dose:

5 male and 5 female in test and control group

Control animals:

yes

Details on study design:

Age of test organisms: 8 to 10 weeks
Body weight range: 200±20g
Identification : By cage tag and corresponding colour body marking
Dose groups : Four + one control
Group - I Vehicle control
Group - II 62.5 mg/kg b. wt
Group - III 250 mg/kg b. wt
Group - IV 1000 mg/kg b.wt
Group - V 1000 mg/kg b.wt (Reversal group)
Acclimatization: The selected healthy wistar albino rats were acclimatized to standard laboratory condition under the supervision of Veterinarian for period of one week.
Randomization: After acclimatization and Veterinary examination the animals randomly divided into four groups viz, one control and three treatment group.
Nutritional conditions: Animals were fasted overnight prior to test compound administration and food was offered three hours after dosing.

Examinations

Observations and examinations performed and frequency:

The toxicity of the test compound following dermal application was assessed. Five male & five female rats were used per step for each dose level. The rats were observed for incidence of mortality and signs of intoxication for 28 days after the administration of test article.

Sacrifice and pathology:

GROSS PATHOLOGY: Yes, During necropsy all the organs viz; Adrenals, Brain, Heart, Kidneys, Liver, Lungs, intestine, Spleen, lymph nodes and Testes of body were examined for gross pathological changes.

HISTOPATHOLOGY: Yes, Samples of following organs and tissues were processed for histopathological examination Adrenals, Brain, Heart, Kidneys, Liver, Lungs, intestine, Spleen and Testes.

Other examinations:

Observations were made for moratality, clnical signs, body weight, food intake, haematobiochemical study, urine analysis, terminal studies, absolute organ weight,

Statistics:

The data obtained from present investigation were analyzed by One Way ANOVA and Tukey HSD Test.
