Examinations

Observations and examinations performed and frequency:

CAGE SIDE OBSERVATIONS:
- Cageside observations included skin/fur, eyes, mucous membranes, respiratory and circulatory systems, somatomotor activity and behaviour
patterns
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS:
- Animals were observed individually before and after dosing at each time of dosing for any signs of behavioural changes, reaction to treatment or
illness. In addition, animals were checked regularly throughout the working day from 7.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. On Saturdays and Sundays, animals
were checked regularly from 8.00 a.m. to 12.00 noon with a final check performed at approximately 4.00 p.m.
DERMAL IRRITATION :
- Starting on test day 1 and daily thereafter, always at the end of the 6-hour exposure period, the administration sites were assessed based on
DRAIZE
BODY WEIGHT:
- starting on test day 1, day 8 and day 15
FOOD CONSUMPTION:
- quantity of food left by individual animals was recorded on a weekly basis throughout the experimental period. Food intake per rat (g/rat/week) was calculated using the total amount of food given to and left by each rat in each group on comple-tion of a treatment week
FOOD EFFICIENCY:
- The relative food consumption (in g/kg b.w./day) was determined
WATER CONSUMPTION:
- Drinking water consumption was monitored daily by visual appraisal throughout the study
MORTALITY
- Further checks were made early in the morning and again in the afternoon of each working day to look for dead or moribund animals. This would
have allowed post mortem examination to be carried out during the working period of that day. On Saturdays and Sundays a similar procedure was
followed except that the final check was carried out at approximately 4.00 p.m.

Sacrifice and pathology:

GROSS PATHOLOGY:
-On test day 15 (approx. 24 hours after the last administration) the animals were dissected following a randomisation scheme.
The animals were sacrificed under ether anaesthesia by cutting the aorta abdominalis, exsanguinated, weighed, dissected and inspected
macroscopically under the direction of a pathologist.
- All superficial tissues were examined visually and by palpation and the cranial roof was removed to allow observation of the brain, pituitary gland
and cranial nerves. After ventral midline incision and skin reflection all subcutaneous tissues were examined. The condition of the thoracic
viscera was noted with due attention to the thymus, lymph nodes and heart.
The abdominal viscera were examined before and after removal, the urinary bladder was examined externally and by palpation. The
gastrointestinal tract was examined as a whole and the stomach and caecum were incised and examined. The lungs were removed and all pleural
surfaces were examined under suitable illumination. The liver and the kidneys were examined. Any abnormalities in the appearance and size of the
gonads, adrenal glands, uterus, intraabdominal lymph nodes and accessory reproductive organs were recorded.

Other examinations:

no other examinations

Statistics:

The test item-treated groups 2 to 4 were compared with the control group 1. The following statistical method was used:
Multiple t-test based on DUNNETT, C. W., New tables for multiple comparisons with a control Biometrics, 482-491 (Sept 1964)
Body weight / Food consumption (p >/= 0.01)
This statistical procedure was used for all data

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:

Dermal treatment with 30, 100 or 1000 mg test item (solvent free)/kg b.w./day for 14 days did not cause any signs of local or systemic intolerance.

Executive summary:

The aim of this 14-day dose-range-finding study was to select the dose levels for a possible later 90-day repeated dose toxicity study of test item by dermal administration to rats.

Dose levels of 30, 100 and 1000 mg test item /kg b.w. /day were administered in this study.

The appropriate dose of the test item was administered epicutaneously onto the shaved dorsum (approx. 10% of the body surface (semi-occlusive)) once daily for 14 consecutive days. The exposure time was 6 hours per day. The test item was suspended in the vehicle (tap water) to the appropriate concentrations to allow the test item to be spread over the application site.

The control animals were handled in an identical manner with concurrent vehicle. On test day 15 the animals were dissected following a randomisation sheme.

Conclusion:

Dermal treatment with test item for 14 days did not cause any signs of local or systemic intolerance.

None of the rats died prematurely.

No test item-related influence was noted on the body weight, food and drinking water consumption.

Macroscopic examination at necropsy revealed no test item-related changes at any of the tested groups.

Therefore, under the conditions of this study the highest concentration (1000 mg/kg bw /day) is considered to be the No Observed Adverse Effect Level (NOAEL).

 

After consideration of these data, the following dose levels were selected for the 90-day toxicity study by dermal administration to CD rats:

Group 1:       Control

Group 2:       30 mg test item (solvent free)/kg b.w./day

Group 3:     100 mg test item (solvent free))/kg b.w./day

Group 4:    1000 mg test item (solvent free)/kg b.w./day
