Examinations

Maternal examinations:
From day 0 until day 20 p.c. the test animals were examined twice daily. Attention was payed to problems of general condition, appearance, behaviour, and changes of excretory products. Food and water consumption was journalized from day 0-20 p.c..
Ovaries and uterine content:
0 mg/kg bw/day= 262 fetuses
2 mg/kg bw/day= 218 fetuses
10 mg/kg bw/day= 216 fetuses
50 mg/kg bw/day= 242 fetuses
Fetal examinations:
0 mg/kg bw/day= 262 fetuses (126 WILSON/ 136 DAWSON)
2 mg/kg bw/day= 218 fetuses (102 WILSON/ 116 DAWSON)
10 mg/kg bw/day= 216 fetuses (104 WILSON/ 112 DAWSON)
50 mg/kg bw/day= 242 fetuses (116 WILSON/ 126 DAWSON)

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

25 female Wistar-rats received 1,5 -naphthylenediamine by gavage (dose: 0; 2; 10; 50 mg/kg bw.) daily from day 6 to day 15 of gestation.

From 10 mg/kg bw./day the food consumption and weight gain were influenced.

In the 50 mg/kg dose group sporadic heightened urine excretion was observed and additionally in one animal an increased water consumption detected.

No meaningfull pathological-anatomical findings and no mortalities were observed.

From 10 mg/kg bw/day a marginal diminuated weight of fetuses was identified.

The NOAEL for maternal toxicity and developmental toxicity was 2 mg/kg bw/day.
