Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
NOAEL was considered to be 2 mg/kg in P0, F1 and F2 generation when rats were treated with test material orally in diet for 8 months.
Executive summary:

In a two generation reproductive toxicity study, rats were treated with test material in the concentration of 2 mg every other day in diet. No effects on reproduction of P, F1 and F2 generation were observed in treated rats at 2 mg. Therefore, NOAEL was considered to be 2 mg/kg in P0, F1 and F2 generation when rats were treated with test material orally in diet for 8 months.
