Examinations
- Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
- MORTALITY / VIABILITY AND CLINICAL SIGNS: Observations for mortality/viability were recorded twice daily and clinical signs of toxicity were recorded once daily.
FOOD CONSUMPTION: The food consumption was recorded once during the acclimatization period and weekly thereafter using an on-line electronic recording system consisting of a Mettler balance connected to the RCC computer.
BODY WEIGHTS: Body weights were recorded weekly and before necropsy
OPHTHALMOSCOPIC EXAMINATIONS: Dates: At 4 weeks: 28-MAR-1996, At 6 weeks (i.e. 2 weeks recovery): ll-APR-1996. The cornea, lens, anterior chamber, vitreous body and ocular fundus of both eyes of all animals were examined after the application of a mydriatic solution (Ciba Vision AG, CH-3172 Niederwangen) using a Miroflex 2 Ophthalmoscope (Eisenhut Vet. AG, CH-4123 Allschwil). A description of any abnormality was recorded.
Clinical Laboratory Investigations: Blood samples for hematology and clinical biochemistry were collected from all
animals under light ether anesthesia.The animals were fasted in metabolic cages for approximately 18 hours before blood sampling but allowed access to water ad libitum. Blood samples were collected between the hours of 06.30 and 08.00 to reduce biological variation caused by circadian rhythms. Blood samples were drawn from the retro-orbital plexus using a micro-hematocrit glass capillary tube.
Urine was collected during the 18-hour fasting period into a specimen vial. Blood and urine sampling: After 4 weeks and after 6 weeks. - Sacrifice and pathology:
- NECROPSY
After 4 weeks and after 6 weeks.
All animals were weighea and necropsied and descriptions of all macroscopic abnormalities were recorded. Prior to necropsy, the animals were fasted , but free access to water was provided. Necropsies were performed by experienced prosectors supervised by an experienced veterinary pathologist. At the end of the treatment or recovery period the animals designated according to the necropsy schedule were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of sodium pentobarbitone (Narcoren, Rhône Merieux GmbH, Laupheim) at a dose of 2.0 ml/kg body weight (equivalent to 320 mg sodium pentobarbitone/kg body weight), weighed and sacrificed by exsanguination.
Samples of the following tissues and organs were collected from all animals at necropsy and fixed in phosphate buffered neutral 4 % formaldehyde solution.
ABSOLUTE AND RELATIVE ORGAN WEIGHTS
The following organ weights were recorded on the scheduled dates of necropsy: Adrenals, brain, heart, kidneys, liver, ovaries, pituitary, spleen, testes, thyroid including parathyroid gland.
The organ to terminal body weight ratios as well as the organ to brain weight ratios were determined.
The determination of the terminal body weight was performed immediately prior to necropsy using an on-line electronic recording system consisting of a Mettler balance connected to a computer system.
HISTOTECHNIQUE
All organ and tissue samples, as defined under Histopathology were processed, embedded, cut at an approximate thickness of 4 micrometers, and stained with hematoxylin and eosin.
HISTOPATHOLOGY
Slides of adrenals, heart, kidneys, liver, lungs, spleen, stomach and testes collected at terminal sacrifice from the animals of group 1 (control) and group 4 (high-dose) were examined by a pathologist. Kidneys and all gross lesions from rats of all groups were also examined. - Statistics:
- The following data were recorded on-line: food consumption, body weights, organ weights, clinical signs, mortality, macroscopic findings at necropsy and histopathology.
Clinical Laboratory data were recorded on-line (Sysmex TOA E-4000 Multiparameter Automated Hematology Analyzer, Sysmex TOA R-1000 Automated Reticulocyte Analyzer, Instrumentation Laboratory ACL 300 Coagulation System, Eris Selective Multi-Test Analyzer 6170, Boehringer Miditron M Semi-Automated Urine Chemistry Analyser) or on data sheet and then transferred into the computer system.
Ophthalmoscopic data were recorded on data sheets and transcribed for compilation and analysis into the computer system.
The computer-generated values which appear in the tables represent the roundedoff results of the raw data values or of calculations which used the exact raw data values.
Group means were calculated according to the definition of any mean value using the individual values per animal and the number of animals.
The following statistical methods were used to analyze the body weights, food consumption, organ weights and all ratios and clinical laboratory data:
When the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution, the Dunnett-test (many to one t-test) based on a pooled variance estimate was applied for the comparison between the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
The Steel-test (many-one rank test) was applied when the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
The Fisher's exact test was applied to the ophthalmoscopy data.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- Based on the findings of this study, the no-observed-effect level (NOEL) and no-observed-adverseeffect level (NOAEL) were found to be 200 mg/kg bw and 1000 mg/kg bw respectively.
- Executive summary:
A sub-acute repeat dose study was conducted to assess the repeat dose toxicity of FAT 40549/A. This study was conducted in accordance with OECD test guideline 407 and Directive 92/69/EEC, B.7 in a GLP certified laboratory.
The oral administration of FAT 40549/A to Wistar rats at doses of 50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg/day, for 28 days, resulted in animals of both sexes from the high dose group in increased total bilirubin concentration, urine discoloration, and increased incidence and severity of lipofuscin pigment in the epithelium of the proximal tubules.
After the recovery period the higher bilirubin concentration and urine discoloration were found to be reversed and similar to those of the control, whereas the lipofuscin pigment was noted at the end of treatment and also following the recovery phase. At the end of the recovery period slightly higher score for blood in urine of high dose males was recorded.
Higher bilirubin concentration and a more intense yellow coloration of the plasma, as well as the urine discoloration were considered to be related to the yellow brown color of the test article and in the absence of relating morphological changes of no toxicological relevance. The increase in the incidence and severity of lipofuscin pigment in the proximal tubular renal epithelium in all animals of group 4 is derived from oxidation of tissue lipids and probably represents an increased metabolic turnover in the affected cells.
Based on the results of this study, 1000 mg/kg FAT 40549/A/A was established as the no-observed-adverse-effectllevel (NOAEL) and the NOEL, the no-observed-effect-level as 200 mg/kg.
