All organ and tissue samples collected during necropsy were processed, embedded and cut to 3-5µm sections then stained with haematoxylin and eosin and examined under light microscope. Full histopathology was performed on the preserved organs and tissues of all animals in the control and high dose groups (main study). Lesions were graded as mild, moderate, or severe based on vascular/degenerative/inflammatory changes in specific organs. Mild=less than 10% of the region affected; Moderate=less than 25% of the region were affected; Severe=more than 25% of the region affected.
Statistics:
The following statistical methods were used to analyse the body weight, feed consumption, organ weights as well as clinical pathology data:
Data was summarized in tabular form. Statistical analysis was performed using SAS/STAT® Software (Version 9.3).
All the data were analysed for homogeneity using Levene’s test
The difference between the means was analysed using Dunnet’s t- test
Significant differences between control and treated groups analysed using one-way ANOVA statistics. Values were summarized as mean ± standard deviation (SD).

ANALYSIS OF DOSE FORMULATIONS

Dose concentration verifications were carried out for the test item fortified in distilled water at 25, 50 and 100 mg/ml. The recovery values in the prepared dose formulations were within the guideline specification. The test item was found to be homogeneously dispersed in distilled water, which was evinced from the recovery of test item from different layers (top, middle and bottom layers of distilled water).

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The toxicity of the registered substance following repeated oral exposure was tested in a 28-day study (OECD 407) using male and female Wistar rats. No treatment related adverse effect was observed. The study-derived NOAEL was 1000 mg/kg bw/day.
Executive summary:

The study was performed according to OECD 407 and GLP. The test substance was given by oral gavage to 5 rats per sex per dose level at 0 (distilled water), 250, 500 and 1000 mg/kg bw/day. In addition, recovery groups treated with 0 (distilled water) or 1000 mg/kg bw/day were included to study the reversibility of treatment-related effects (if any). Male and female Wistar rats of the treatment groups were dosed for 28 days, rats in the recovery groups were allowed to recover for 14 days after the final dose. The observation and examinations performed in the study were mortality, clinical signs, detailed clinical signs, body weight, food consumption, sensory reactivity, assessment of grip strength, motor activity assessment, ophthalmoscopy, clinical pathology (hematology and clinical chemistry), urinalysis, gross pathology at termination, organ weight, and histopathology on the preserved organs and tissues. Results: All animals survived to planned death, and there were no clinical signs of toxicity. No test item-related changes were noted in body weight or body weight gain and feed consumption of both sexes from any of the dose levels during the experimental period. No significant changes in sensory reactivity, grip strength, or motor activity were observed in any of the animals during treatment or recovery. No abnormalities were observed during the ophthalmological examinations. No treatment-related adverse effect was observed on haematological and clinical biochemistry parameters of both sexes from any dose groups. No significant changes in urinalysis were observed in any of the groups. No changes were noted in organ weights of both sexes from any dose levels. No treatment-related histopathological effects were observed at 1000 mg/kg bw/day in the main study. Conclusion: The study-derived NOAEL was 1000 mg/kg bw/day.
