Administration / exposure

Route of administration:
not specified
Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
yes
Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
Administration of the substance to pregnant female rabbits at doses of 300, 1000 and 3000 mg/kg produced gastrointestinal effects (diarrhea) at the high level

Details on study design:
Administration of the substance to pregnant female rabbits at doses of 300, 1000 and 3000 mg/kg produced gastrointestinal effects (diarrhea) at the high level. Deaths which could not be attributed to other causes also occurred at the high dose level. There was a decrease in the mean body weight of females at the high dose level on Days 12, 18 and 29 of gestation.

Examinations

Litter observations:
observations of the uterine contents showed that the ratio of live fetuses/implantation sites is significantly decreased in the 3000 mg/kg group as compared to the controls.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Evaluation of cleared specimens showed a significant increase in the number of uncommonly-encountered changes at the 300 and 1000 mg/kg dose levels. These changes were judged to reflect an inhibition in the rate of skeletal development and were not observed in the high dose tested group. The NOAC for maternal toxicity and reproduction toxicity is considered to be 3000 mg/kg.
