Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Examinations

Observations and examinations performed and frequency:
MORTALITY
No mortality occured during the study.

CLINICAL SIGNS
The negative effect of the test substance on clinical status
of animals was recorded at all dose levels. Soft stool or diarrhoea, chromodacryorrhea (it means excessive outpouring of the red secretion of the Harderian gland which may be provoked by non-specific stimuli such as stress) and flabby body were observed and frequency of incidence of these symptoms was dependent on dose level (occurence at the middle and the lowest dose level was sporadical). After ending of application of the test substance the symptoms faded away - effect had reversible character.

FUNCTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL BATTEARY
No important differences were recorded during functional observation of treated and control animals.

FOOD CONSUMPTION
No significant effects on food consumption were noted.

BODY WEIGHT
Growth of animals (body weight, weigh increments, food conversion) was not changed seriously.

WATER CONSUMPTION
The water consumption of males at the dose level 300 mg/kg/day was markedly increased compared to control - this effect was reversible. The water consumption of males of the lowest and the middle dose level was similar to control males.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Administration of the test substance 3-(2,2,2-Trimethylhydrazine)methylpropionate bromide had negative effect especially on clinical status of animals, metabolism of water and ions and probably it affected the function of liver. These effects demonstrated in results of clinical observations (soft stool or diarrhea, chromodacryorrhea, flabby body, slightly decreased activity), biochemical examination of blood (hyperchloraemia, hyponatraemia, decreased values of liver enzymes) and urinalysis (decreased volume of urine, increased value of specific gravity, increased value of pH, proteinuria, haematuria, leucocyturia) of treated males and females and high incidence of significant or statistically significant differences was recorded at the middle and especially at the highest dose level. Changes at the lowest dose level had only mild intensity and were not considered as adverse. Effect of the test substance on growth of animals and biometry of organs was not serious. In haematological (red blood component and blood coagulation) and histopathological examination (stomach, kidney) changes were diagnosed but they were not biologically significant. No sex differences in the reaction of animals to the treatment by the test substance have been detected.
