TWO-YEAR CHRONIC ORAL TOXICITY WITH , AROCLOR 1242
IN ALBINO RATS
NOVEMBER 12, 1971
IBT NO. B7298
I. Introduction
.
At the request of Monsanto Company, a two-year chronic oral
toxicity study was conducted using albino rats to determine the potential
toxicity of Aroclor 1242, Lot No. AK-255. The following report presents

II. Summary
A two-year chronic toxicity study was conducted using albino rats fed diets containing 1 (T-I), 10 (T-II) or 100 (T-III) ppm Aroclor 1242.
Food consumption and body weight gains were not altered at any level ofAroclor 1242 fed. The number of animals dying and the time at
which the deaths occurred did not vary among the test and control groups.
Hematological and clinical blood chemistry studies conducted after
3, 6, 9, 12, 18 or 24 months did not reveal any affects related to
Aroclor 1242. Urine analyses failed to reveal any differences between
test and control animals.
At sacrifice after 3, 6 or 12 months on test, organ weights, organ
to body weight and organ to brain weight ratios disclosed several randomly occurring intergroup differences. The lack of any consistent
dose related response and the absence of any deleterious histopathologic
change confirm that these differences were not related to the ingestion
of Aroclor 1242.
At the final sacrifice after 24 months on test, the liver weights and
liver to body weight or brain weight ratios were significantly elevated in females from the T-III group. Histologic examination of the livers
from the T-IH group revealed several animals with vacuolar change.
This lesion is morphologically indicative of fatty degeneration. Specific
fat stains confirmed the presence of fat in these vacuoles. Focal
hypertrophy and focal hyperplasia were also found in the livers from
animals fed Aroclor 1242. .

Hyperplasia of the urinary bladder was found in animals from the
control group and from each of the test groups. This hyperplasia was
usually associated with cystitis. The incidences and types of all tumors were about the same in all
groups, including the control group, and are considered normal for
rats of this age. '

III. Procedure
A. Experimental Animals
The animals employed in the test were Charles River strain*
albino rats. Four hundred rats (200 male and 200 female) were selected
for the experiment, ear-punched with the animal number assigned and
housed individually in standard wire-bottomed steel rat cages. Each
cage bore a color-coded card identifying the rat with respect to project
number, dietary level assignment, individual animal number and sex.
B. Organization of Groups
A structural outline of the experiment is given in Table I.

C. Diets, Feeding and Food Consumption
All diets were prepared in the central diet room of this
laboratory. The basic ration from which all diets were constructed
was a standard, pulverized stock rat ration*. The diet for any given
test group was prepared by blending the calculated amount of Aroclor
1242 with a pre-weighed portion of the stock ration in a Hobart mixer.
Fresh diets were prepared each week and every rat was offered
an amount of food sufficient for ad libitum feeding.
Food consumption was recorded for five rats of each sex in every
group weekly for the first three months and monthly for the next nine
months. Thereafter, periodic spot checks were made.
!
D. Body Weights and Weight Gains
Initially, the body weight of each rat in every group was deter
mined and recorded. Thereafter, individual weighings were made weekly
for the first 13 weeks and monthly thereafter until the conclusion of the
investigation.
E. Mortality and Reactions
Checks for mortality and abnormal behavioral reactions were
made daily throughout the investigation.
F. Hematologic Studies and Urine Analyses
Blood studies, including determinations of hemoglobin concentra
tion, hematocrit value, erythrocyte count and both total and differential

leukocyte counts, were conducted upon five males and five females from
both the control and 100 ppm groups.
,,y , .
Urine analyses for the presence of glucose, ^albumin, micro-
/ ecopic elements, and determinations of pH and specific gravity were con
ducted upon urine samples at the same time intervals and from the same
animals as those employed for the blood studies.
^
These studies were conducted after 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months
of feeding. G. Clini'cal Blood Chemistry Studies
i
\- \
Determinations of blood urea nitrogen concentration (BUN),
serum alkaline phosphatase activity (SAP), fasted blood glucose concen
tration and serum glutamic-pyruvic transaminase activity (SGPT) were
conducted after 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, and 24 months of feeding upon the same
rats as were the routine blood studies.
*
H. Pathologic Studies
When an animal succumbed during the test period, a gross autopsy
was performed. In those cases when postmortem autolysis was not ad
vanced, representative tissues were taken and preserved in ten percent
formalin solution for possible future histopathologic study.
After 3, 6, and 12 months of testing, five animals of each sex
from each group were sacrificed and subjected to complete gross pathologic
examinations.

O Absolute organ weights were recorded and organ to body weight
and organ to brain weight ratios computed. The following organs were
included: liver, kidneys, spleen, gonads, heart and brain. These data
were then subjected to statistical analysis. An Analysis of Variance was
conducted first and significant effects disclosed by that treatment were
further studied by "t"-tests.
Complete microscopic examinations were conducted upon the
tissues and organs from all control and 100 ppm group rats sacrificed
after 3, 6, or 12 months of testing. The following tissues and organs were
included in the examinations: heart, trachea, lungs, liver, pancreas,
esophagus, stomach, small intestine (duodenum, jejunum and ileum),
caecum, colon, spleen, lymph nodes, kidneys, urinary bladder, gonads,
prostate gland, seminal vesicles, uterus, pituitary gland, adrenal glands,
salivary glands, thyroid gland, parathyroid glands, skeletal muscle,
sternum, bone, peripheral nerve, spinal cord and brain (cerebrum,
cerebellum and pons).
The aforementioned tissues were prepared and stained with
Hematoxylin-Eosin stain.
After two years of feeding, all surviving animals were sacrificed
and subjected to complete gross pathologic examination.
The absolute weights of the liver, kidneys, spleen, gonads,
heart and brain were recorded immediately after sacrifice.

F. Pathologic Studies
1. Three-Month Sacrifice
a. Gross Pathologic Findings
Gross pathologic findings among test animals were not
Significantly different from those noted in control animals.
b. Organ Weight and Ratio Data
^
' I)
The mean organ weight and ratio data collected at the
three-month sacrifice are presented in Tables XIII through XVIII.
\
Statistically significant differences are designated by
asterisks following the test group value,
1
Organ weights, organ to body weight and organ to brain
weight ratios disclosed several randomly occurring intergroup differences.
The lack of any consistent dose related response and the absence of any
deleterious histopathologic change confirm that these differences were
not related to the ingestion of Aroclor 1242.

c. Histopathologic Findings Histopathologic examination of tissues and organs taken
from all animals from both the control and 100 ppm groups was conducted. Tables XIX and XX list all histopathologic changes
noted. All of the lesions noted in the microscopic examination
of tissues were those of spontaneous disease and are not unusual for the albino rat. The most frequent findings were lesions in the trachea and lungs, indicating chronic murine pneumonia. These occurred in the control as well as the rats fed Aroclor 1242.

a. Gross Pathologic Findings
No outstanding differences were noted between test and control animals.
b. Organ Weight and Organ to Body and Organ to Brain Weight Ratio Data The results of the statistical anlayses conducted on ab
solute organ weights, organ to body weight and organ to brain weight ratios are summarized in Tables XXI through XXVI.
Organ weights, organ to body weight and organ to brain weight ratios disclosed several randomly occurring intergroup differences. The lack of any consistent dose related response and the absence of any deleterious histopathologic change confirm that these differences were not related to the ingestion of Aroclor 1242.

from all animals from both the control and 100 ppm groups was conducted.
/
Tables XXVII and XXVIII list all histopathologic changes
noted.
\
All of the lesions noted in the microscopic examination
of tissues were those of spontaneous disease and are not unusual for the
albino rat. The most frequent findings were lesions in the trachea and
\
lungs, indicating chronic murine pneumonia. These occurred in the control
as well as the rats fed Aroclor 1242.

Gross pathologic findings among test animals were not
significantly different from those noted in control animals.
b. Organ Weight and Ratio Data
^
'i The mean organ weight and ratio data collected at the
i
twelve-month sacrifice are presented in Tables XXIX through XXXIV. i
Statistically significant differences are designated by
asterisks following the test group value.
.
Organ weights, organ to body weight and organ to brain
weight ratios disclosed several randomly occurring intergroup differences.
The lack of any consistent dose related response and the absence of any
deleterious histopathologic change confirm that these differences were
not related to the ingestion of Aroclor 1242.

c. Histopathologic Findings
Histopathologic examination of tissues and organs taken from all animals sacrificed after 24 months on test was conducted.
Tables XLIII through XLVI list all histopathologic changes
noted. Table XLVH contains the results of the histopathologic examination
of the urinary bladders.
\
Significant liver injury was found in animals fed 100 ppm
Aroclor 1242 (T-III). The compound associated lesions consisted of
\
vacuolar change, focal hypertrophy and focal hyperplasia. In addition, there
were lesions of inflammation, necrosis, fibrosis and minor degeneration in
this group which, although seen in the controls and lower test groups, were
more severe and frequent in the T-III group.
The vacuolar change was not seen in the control animals
but was observed occasionally in liver from T-I (1 ppm) and T-H (10 ppm)
animals. The vacuolar change was observed frequently in the T-III animals.
This lesion is morphologically indicative of fatty degeneration. Formalin-
frozen sections of livers from representative animals which displayed
vacuolar changes were stained with Oil Red O to reveal the presence of fat.
The vacuolar lesion in the cytoplasm of these cells was positively identified
as fat.
The hypertrophic change found in the liver was focal and
often limited to the central lobular area where groups of cells were swollen
to two or three times their normal size with clear pink homogeneous cytoplasm.

The hyperplasia was associated with the same cells and appeared to be an
extension of the hypertrophic lesion. The hyperplastic cells were also
usually hypertrophic. The most severe examples of hyperplasia appeared
as nodular growths with limited compression of the surrounding normal
hepatic tissue.
The minor lesions of degeneration, hepatitis, ductule cell
proliferation, necrosis and focal lymphoid infiltration seen in the control
animals and the T-I and T-II groups are lesions of spontaneous disease and
are not related to the Aroclor 1242. This level of liver disease is not
unusual in old animals.
Hyperplasia of the transitional epithelium was present
in the urinary bladder of animals from the control group and from each of
the test groups. This lesion was usually associated with cystitis.
All of the other lesions in the other tissues found in these
animals are related to spontaneous disease and they are not unusual for
rats of this age.
