SUMMARY
DPT 443/984760
This study was performed to assess the systemic toxicity oi followed was outlined in:
the ra t The method
OECD Guideline for Testing of'Chemicals Guideline No.407, `Repeated Dose 28-day Oral Toxicity Study in Rodents', Adopted 27 July 1995.
Iw ^ administered by oral gavage, once daily, to three groups o f 5 male and 5 female rats for 28 consecutive days, at dosage levels of 15, 50 or 150 mg/kg/day. The test substance was prepared as a solution in distilled water at concentrations o f 1.5, 5.0 or 15 mg/ml and administered at a dosage volume o f 10 ml/kg/day. All dosages were corrected for purity as the material was supplied as a 25% slurry in water. Dosages are reported herein in terms o f solids. Control animals received the vehicle alone at the same dose volume.
During the study, clinical signs, bodyweight and food consumption data were recorded. Neurobehavioural screening was performed at intervals during the study and blood samples were taken from all animals on Day 29 o f the study. All animals were killed at the end o f the 4 week treatment period (Day 29) and examined macroscopically. A range o f organs was weighed and tissues preserved for subsequent light microscopy examinations.
The following comments in relation to the principal tradings are made in summary:
M ortality There were no unscheduled deaths on the study.
Clinical signs No clinical signs considered to be of toxicological significance were noted.
Bodyweight, food consumption and food conversion ratios
Markedly lower bodyweight gain., food consumption and inferior food conversion ratios were seen for males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day. The bodyweight gain of males and females receiving 50 mg/kg/day was also lower than that o f controls.
Behavioural screening No change attributable to treatment wil
ras noted for any behavioural parameter.

Haematology
.
Male and female rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day had toxicologically significant anaemia, as indicated by decreased mean red cell mass parameters (RBC, PCV and Hb) and decreased mean MCV. Male and female rats in this group also had leucocytosis, evidenced by increased total mean leucocytes. These changes are consistent with inflammation, and with the renal changes observed microscopically. Statistically significant changes in other haematologic parameters were considered to be toxicologically insignificant.
Biochemistry
Male and female rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day had evidence of decreased renal function. Increased urea nitrogen, creatinine and inorganic phosphorus indicated decreased glomerular filtration rate. Male and female rats dosed with 50 mg/kg/day also had increased urea nitrogen; this change was of sufficient magnitude to be considered toxicologically significant. Increased urea nitrogen for males which had received 15 mg/kg/day was considered to be o f no biological significance. Mild changes in potassium, calcium, sodium and chloride also occurred in male and female rats in the high dose group. These effects are consistent with altered kidney function and are considered to be a result of kidney toxicity.
Hyperbilirubinemia was also noted in rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day. These effects are considered secondary to and consistent with liver alterations noted during microscopic examination.
Organ weights
A higher absolute kidney weight was apparent for males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, in comparison with the controls.
In males receiving 150 mg/kg/day, a lower absolute liver but a higher bodyweight-adjusted liver weight was seen. A higher bodyweight-adjusted liver weight was apparent for females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, compared to the controls.
For females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, a lower absolute heart, spleen and adrenal weight were noted, in comparison with the controls.
Macroscopic pathology
The macroscopic examination performed at termination revealed the following changes in animals receiving 150 mg/kg/day: enlargement, pallor and swollen appearance o f the kidneys and pale cortical foci and irregular cortical scarring of the kidneys, unilateral distension of the ureter and blood stained urine in the ureter and urinary bladder o f 1 male, pallor of the liver, a reduction in adipose tissue and a reduction in the size o f the ovaries and uterus in 1 female.

DPT 443/984760 Microscopie pathology Evidence o f nephrotoxicity was detected at 150 mg/kg/day and to a lesser extent at 50 mg/kg/day, and was characterised by interstitial inflammation in th cortex, medulla and papilla, inflammatory casts in tubules and collecting ducts, cortical tubular necrosis, basophilia and hyperplasia in tubules and collecting ducts, tubular dilatation, papillary necrosis, collecting duct and urothelial hyperplasia. No effect was seen at 15 mg/kg/day.. In addition, hepatocyte hypertrophy and fine vacuolation and an increased incidence of prominent adipocytes in the bone marrow were also detected at 150 mg/kg/day. Conclusion It was concluded that 15 mg/kg/day represents the no observable adverse effect lev.el (NOAEL) for ^ t h e rat when administered orally for 28 days. According to the EEC Council ' Directive 92/69/EEC Annex VI, Part 11(D) as described in Commission Directive 93/21/EEC, labelling with the R48 risk phrase is appropriate. H e n c e f if l^ l^ H I ^ R S labelled R48/22: Harmful if swallowed.

INTRODUCTION
DPT 443/984760
The study was designed to assess the systemic toxicity of
surfactant in the
polymerisation o f fluoromonomers, to the rat when repeatedly administered orally for a period of 28
consecutive days.
The procedure used is described in this report and complied with that described in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, Testing of Chemicals Guideline No. 407, `Repeated Dose 28-day Oral Toxicity Study in Rodents', Adopted 27 July 1995.
The albino rat was chosen as the test species as it has been shown to be a suitable model for this type
of study and is the species recommended in the test guidelines. The strain o f rat used was chosen on
account o f the availability o f background data.
.
The rats were dosed orally as the test substance may be ingested accidentally.
The dosage levels were selected on the basis o f a one week preliminary oral toxicity study performed at this laboratory, where dosage levels of 500 and 750 mg/kg/day caused all animals to be prematurely sacrificed or found dead. 250 mg/kg/day caused decreased bodyweight gain and food consumption, increased kidney and liver weights, decreased spleen weight and kidney enlargement/pallor. This dosage was considered too high for this subsequent 4 week study, so a high dosage level o f 150 mg/kg/day was chosen in reference to the key dosage relative to OECD labelling requirements. (Huntingdon Life Sciences report number DPT 442/992305, which is appended to this report). To compensate for the purity of the test material as supplied a correction factor was applied. All dosage levels in this report are stated as solids not as material supplied as the test compound was
supplied as a 25% slurry in water.

EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE
DPT 443/984760
ANIMAL MANAGEMENT
A total of 29 male and 29 female Crl :CD(SD)BR rats approximately 28 days old and within a weight range of 9 g for males and 14 g for females, was received from Charles River (UK) Ltd, Margate, Kent, England. For those animals selected for the study, their estimated age at the start of treatment was 5 weeks and their bodyweights were in the range 133 g to 162 g for males and 121 g to 142 g for females.
On arrival 5 males and 4 females selected at random were used for health check purposes. These animals were killed within 24 hours after arrival at Huntingdon and subjected to routine macroscopic examination. Lungs, liver, kidneys, spleen and heart were preserved in fixative, but not processed further. No macroscopic abnormalities were noted in any o f the health check animals.
The remaining rats were placed at random in suspended cages with wire mesh floors with stainless steel wire tops, according to sex, so that each cage contained 5 rats o f the same sex. Each cage measured 36.5 cm wide, 55 cm deep and 25 cm high.
Animal room temperature and relative humidity controls were set at 21 2C and 55 10% respectively; the actual ranges recorded were 22 to 25C and 25 to 50% respectively. The transient deviations from the set limits were considered not to have affected the integrity o f the study. Permanent weekly recordings o f these parameters were made by a Foster Clearspan M206 recorder and these are archived with all other raw data for this study. Artificial lighting was controlled to give 12 hours continuous light and 12 hours continuous dark per 24 hours.
All rats had free access to tap water and pelleted SDS Rat and Mouse No. 1 maintenance diet, except as noted under LABORATORY INVESTIGATIONS. There was no information available to the Study Director to indicate that any non-nutrient substance likely to influence the effect of the test substance was present in the diet, or the drinking water, both of which were routinely subjected to regular chemical analyses, results o f which are lodged in Huntingdon Life Sciences Archives.
A period of acclimatisation of 9 days was allowed between allocation of animals to groups and the commencement of treatment. During this period a review o f animal health was undertaken by a veterinary officer. The spare animals were retained during this acclimatisation period to replace any rat showing signs of ill health. Prior to the start o f treatment, animal number 31 (female) was noted to be emaciated and to have piloerection, hunched posture and yellow staining in the urogenital region. The animal was considered to be unsuitable for treatment and was therefore, sent for post mortem examination which revealed the findings described overleaf:

The liver, kidneys, spleen, heart, lungs and macroscopic abnormalities were processed for histopathological examination. Examination of these tissues indicated that the original lesion was a bacterial endocarditis and the widespread lesions were due to suppurative emboli coming from the original lesion. This was considered not to be infectious to the other animals. This animal was replaced with a spare animal, which was given the unique identification number 1031. The remaining spare animals were discarded from the study on the first day o f treatment. On the day of commencement o f treatment, the group mean bodyweights were reviewed to ensure that variations in bodyweight did not exceed 20% of the mean for each sex.
Throughout the study the animals were housed in the Department of Rodent Toxicology, Barriered Rodent Building No. 1, Room 18.

The rats were housed 5 to a cage. Each cage was identified by a coloured label according to group and each label was uniquely numbered with cage and study number. The cage number was tattoo^ .d on the leg of each rat in the cage and within each cage, identification was by earmark. The cages were distributed on the battery so that possible environmental influences arising from their spatial distribution were equilibrated, as far as possible.

PREPARATION OF FORMULATIONS
The test substance,
was administered as a solution in distilled water. A correction
factor of x4 was applied to correct for the fact that the test material as supplied was a 25% aqueous
slurry. A series o f solutions were prepared by serial dilution of die test substance. The test material
as supplied was warmed to 35-40C in a water bath to ensure a complete solution as the diluent was
added. The solutions were dispersed by gentle stirring, care was taken not to shake the formulations.
The concentrations were chosen to give a constant dosage volume of 10 ml/kg bodyweight Control
animals received the vehicle alone at the same dosage volume. The formulations were prepared
weekly and then divided into 7 equal daily aliquots which were stored at +4C until the day o f use.
The formulations were allowed to equilibrate to room temperature prior to use and were checked to
ensure that they were clear solutions.

FORMULATION SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS
Prior to the commencement of the study the proposed formulation procedure was checked by chemical analysis to confirm that the method was acceptable and that the stability o f the formulations was satisfactory under the conditions of the study.
Samples o f formulations prepared for Week 1 were also analysed to check the accuracy of preparation. Chemical analysis was carried out by Huntingdon Life Sciences Department of Analytical Chemistry and the results are presented in this report.
ADMINISTRATION OF FORMULATIONS
The test substance,
was administered as a solution. Control animals received the
vehicle alone. The animals were dosed at approximately the same time each day, where possible,
using a suitably graduated syringe and a rubber catheter (Ch 10) inserted via the mouth into the
stomach. The dosage volume administered to each animal was calculated according to the most
recent recorded bodyweight and was adjusted to the nearest 0.1 ml. A constant dosage volume of
10 ml/kg was used.
Treatment in this manner continued once a day, seven days a week, for a total period of 4 weeks.
DURATION OF TREATMENT Following a total acclimatisation period o f 9 days, treatment continued until completion of 4 weeks.

OBSERVATIONS AND MEASUREMENTS
Dated and signed records o f all activities relating to the day by day running and maintenance o f the study within the animal unit as well as to the group observations and examinations outlined in this procedure were recorded in the Study Daybook. In addition, observations relating to individual animals made throughout the study were recorded.
The following observations were made during the course of the study:
Clinical signs and mortality
Individual animals were observed at least once daily for any signs of behavioural changes, reaction to treatment or ill health. A detailed examination including palpation for the presence of masses was performed weekly. In addition, detailed observations were made in association with dosing daily for Week 1 and twice weekly for Weeks 2 - 4 o f the study.
Dated and signed records o f appearance, change and disappearance of clinical signs were maintained on clinical history sheets for individual animals.
Further checks were made early in each working day and again in the afternoon to look for dead or moribund animals. This allowed post mortem examination to be earned out during the working period o f that day.
B odyw eight
The weight o f each rat was recorded one week prior to the commencement o f treatment, on the day of commencement o f treatment and once a week thereafter (last scheduled bodyweight recorded on Day 28).
Food consumption .
The quantity of food consumed by each cage of rats was recorded on a weekly basis. Food intake per rat (g/rat/week) was calculated using the total amount of food given to and left by the cage in each group and the number o f rats surviving in each cage. The following formula was used:
Weekly food consumption = Total food given - Total food left ^ ?
(g/rat/week)
Number of animal days*
The results using this formula (presented in Table 2) were subject to rounding to the nearest whole number.
* The term `animal day' counts one animal day for each animal alive for a whole day. Thus, for example, in a 5-animal cage with total survival there are 35 (5 animals x 7 days) animal days of consumption. It is assumed that on the day o f death an animal does not eat
: 16 : Company Sanitized. Does not contain TSCA CBI
DPT 443/984760
Efficiency of food utilisation
Food conversion ratios were calculated, where possible, over the period Weeks 1 to 4, from the bodyweight and food consumption data as weight of food consumed per unit gain in bodyweight The following formula was used:
,,,
. . Food consumed
Food conversion ratio = ------------------- --
Bodyweight gain
The `food consumed' was calculated as indicated in the Food consumption section. The `bodyweight gain' was calculated from the gain of each animal and uses the mean gain in the formula.
W ater consumption
Daily monitoring by visual appraisal was maintained throughout the dosing period.
NEUROBEHAVTOURAL SCREENING
Functional observational battery
The functional observational battery and motor activity was performed at approximately the same
time of day, before initiation o f treatment and during Week 4 of treatment. Not all rats were tested in
one day, but time of testing was balanced across the groups. Observations made during the treatment
period were made prior to dosing. In addition, observations in Week 4 were performed prior to any
laboratory investigations.
'
In addition, a shortened battery was performed during Weeks 1, 2 and 3.
The functional observational battery is fully detailed in the BEBLAVIOURAL SCREENING report.
Motor activity
Motor activity was monitored using a Coulboum Infra-Red Activity Monitoring System (system supplied by Coulboum Instruments, Leigh Valley, PA, USA).
This system uses an infra-red detector to monitor activity. The following categories o f activity are recorded: the time spent in no movement, locomotor and non-locomotor activity. The number of occurrences (events) o f each category is also recorded. Normally in reporting this data only the locomotor activity is presented.
For testing, designated animals were placed singly into observation cages. Once all animals had been placed into the cage, the test session was started. The test s ession for each animal was 1 hour. Data was collected every 2 minutes and stored on a floppy disk.

TERMINAL STUDIES
Necropsy
On completion of 4 weeks o f treatment, all animals were killed (Day 29).
All animals were killed by carbon dioxide asphyxiation and subjected to the following detailed necropsy procedure:
All superficial tissues were examined visually and by palpation and the cranial roof removed to allow observation of the brain, pituitary gland and cranial nerves. After ventral mid-line incision and skin reflection, all subcutaneous tissues were examined. The condition of the thoracic viscera was noted, with due attention to the thymus, lymph nodes and heart.
The abdominal viscera were examined before and after removal; the urinary bladder was examined externally and by palpation. The gastrointestinal tract was examined as a whole and the stomach and caecum were incised and examined. The lungs were removed and all pleural surfaces examined under suitable illumination. The liver was sectioned at intervals of a few millimetres; the kidneys were incised and examined. Any abnormalities in the appearance and size of the gonads, adrenals, uterus, intra-abdominal lymph nodes and accessory reproductive organs were recorded.

The macroscopic and microscopic findings are presented in the Appendix by an automated data collation system. Particular care is taken during tissue removal and processing to ensure recovery and sectioning o f all protocol-scheduled tissues. Understandably, omissions or irregularities can occasionally occur, in rodents the most vulnerable tissues in this regard being parathyroid, thymus, male mammary gland and autolysed portions of the gastrointestinal tract. For each animal, any tissue so affected is listed as not seen. The abbreviation `WNL' indicates that a macroscopically abnormal tissue was within normal limits upon histopathological examination.
STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
All statistical analyses were carried out separately for males and females.
For all parameters, the analyses were earned out using the individual animal as the basic experimental unit. Bodyweight data were analysed using weight gains.
The following sequence of statistical tests was used for bodyweight, clinical pathology and organ weight data:
If the data consisted predominantly of one particular value (relative frequency o f the mode exceeded 75%), the proportion of animals with values different from the mode was analysed, Fisher (1950) and Mantel (1963). Otherwise:
A test was applied to test for heterogeneity of variance between treatments, Bartlett (1937). Where significant (at the 1% level) heterogeneity was found, a logarithmic transformation was tried to see if a more stable variance structure could be obtained.
If no significant heterogeneity was detected (or if a satisfactory transformation was found), a one-way analysis o f variance was carried out. If significant heterogeneity o f variance was present, and could not be removed by a transformation, an analysis o f ranks was used, KruskalWallis (1952/3).
Analyses o f variance was followed by Student's t test and Williams test (Williams 1971/2) for a dose-related response, although only the one thought most appropriate for the response pattern observed was reported. The Kruskal-Wallis analyses were followed by the non parametric equivalents of these tests (Shirley, 1977).
For organ weight data, analysis of variance was performed using terminal bodyweight as covariate when the within group relationship between organ weight and bodyweight was significant at the 10% level.
Summary statistics (eg means and standard deviations) presented in the report were calculated from computer-stored individual raw data. The summary statistics and the individual data were stored in the computer to a certain number of decimal places, different for each parameter. For presentation purposes, however, they are usually rounded to fewer places. It will therefore, not in general be possible to reproduce the presented means and standard deviations exactly using the presented individual data.

RESULTS
DPT 443/984760
FORMULATION CHEMISTRY (page 179)
Prior to treatment, tfa^s^rilit^dm um ambient storage for 2 days and refrigerated storage for 15 days
was confirmed
aqueous formulations, at nominal concentrations of 5 and
400 mg/ml.
The mean concentrations
test formulations analysed during the study were
within 7% o f nominal concentrations confirming the accuracy o f formulations.
MORTALITY (Appendix 5) There were no unscheduled deaths during the study.
CLINICAL SIGNS (Appendix 5)
Salivation, immediately after dosing, was noted for males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day occasionally. As this finding was transient in nature, it is considered likely that the salivation is a reaction to poor palatability o f the test substance rather than any toxicological response. No significance is attached to this finding.
BODYW EIGHT (Figure 1, Table 1, Appendix 1)
Markedly lower group mean bodyweight gains were noted over the treatment period for males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, compared with controls with statistical significance attained. A statistically significant lower bodyweight gain was also noted for males and females receiving 50 mg/kg/day.
At 150 mg/kg/day, the decrease in group mean bodyweight gain of approximately 60% for both sexes indicated that this dosage was approaching the MTD for rats over 4 weeks. As gains were recorded in Week 4, the MTD was considered not to have been exceeded, particularly as no severe clinical signs were noted.
The group mean bodyweight gain for males and females receiving 15 mg/kg/day was considered to be comparable with that o f the controls.
FOOD CONSUM PTION (Table 2)
The cumulative food intake over the 4 week treatment period of the males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day was lower than that of the controls. The food intake o f the males and females receiving 15 or 50 mg/kg/day was considered to be comparable to that of controls.

EFFICIENCY O F FOOD UTILISATION (Table 3)
Overall efficiencies of food utilisation over the 4 weeks of treatment were inferior for males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, in comparison with controls, reflecting the markedly lower bodyweight gain noted for these groups.
NEUROBEHAVIOURAL SCREENING (page 116)
There were no indications of adverse effects on parameters attributable tq
HAEMATOLOGY (Table 4, Appendix 2)
In male and female rats dosed with 150 m g /k g /d a y v ^ ^ |m H H h a e m a to lo g ic changes indicated microcytic anaemia and inflammation.
Male and female rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day had toxicologically significant microcytic anaemia, indicated by decreased mean red cell mass parameters (Hb, PCV and RBC) and decreased mean MCV. Statistically significant decreased mean red cell mass parameters also occurred in female rats dosed with 50 mg/kg/day; these changes were minor and were not toxicologically significant. Generally, anaemia occurs when haemoglobin synthesis is depressed below the level needed to maintain red cell mass. Decreased MCH was also observed (statistically significant in females dosed with 150 mg/kg/day); this calculated parameter generally decreases concurrently with MCV when decreased red cell mass is present. Renal damage may have exacerbated the anaemia seen in this study by three mechanisms. Renal damage may have resulted in small amounts o f blood loss in urine. Renal insufficiency may have caused decreased production of erythropoietin, decreasing the rate o f red cell production. Inflammation probably also contributed to the decreased red cell mass by mechanisms included in the term "anaemia of chronic disease". Inflammation was evident in the leukogram (leukocytosis with neutrophilia) and histologically (interstitial nephritis).
Male and female rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day had increased total mean leukocytes (statistically significant only in male rats). The leukocytosis was due primarily to statistically significant increased neutrophils. These leukocyte changes are consistent with inflammation, and are consistent with renal changes observed microscopically.
Statistically significant changes in other haematologic parameters were not considered toxicologically significant because the degree of change was small or the change was in a direction not considered toxicologically significant. These included:
Increased Pit in males (150 mg/kg/day) Increased Eosinophils in females (150 mg/kg/day)
The NOEL for haematology was 50 mg/kg/day based on the presence o f anaemia at 150 mg/kg/day in both male and female rats.

BIOCHEMISTRY (Table 5, Appendix 3)
In male and female rats dosed with 150 or 50 mg/kg/day, clinical chemistry parameters indicated decreased renal function and hyperbilirubinaemia.
Male and female rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day had evidence of decreased renal function. Increased urea nitrogen, creatinine, and inorganic phosphorus are indicated o f decreased glomerular filtration rate. Male and female rats dosed with 50 mg/kg/day also had increased urea nitrogen; this change was of sufficient magnitude to be considered toxicologically significant. Increased urea nitrogen for males which had received 15 mg/kg/day achieved statistical significance but was considered to be of no biological significance. Decreased glomerular filtration can be caused by renal damage or can be secondary to extrarenal changes such as hypovolaemia or dehydration. Renal damage is most likely responsible for the decreased glomerular filtration rate in this study, based on the presence of microscopic lesions in the kidneys, and the lack of supporting evidence o f dehydration.
There were mild changes in potassium, calcium, sodium and chloride that occurred in male and female rats in the high dose group (Text Table). Although the changes were minor and probably no adverse, they are suggestive of alterations in acid/base and electrolyte homeostasis by the kidneys, and are consistent with other changes noted in this study.

Hyperbilirubinaemia was noted in male and female rats dosed with 150 mg/kg/day. Rats in this group also had hepatocellular vacuolation and hypertrophy (see anatomic pathology report). Hyperbilirubinaemia was most likely caused by decreased biliary excretion secondary to the hepatocyte changes. Although ALP generally increases with cholestasis o f sufficient degree to cause hyperbilirubinaemia, ALP inhibition by fluoride may have masked an increase. These changes were
minimal but considered toxicologically significant.
Statistically significant changes in other clinical chemistry parameters were not considered toxicologically significant because the degree of change was small, the change was in a direction not considered toxicologically significant, or the change was not dose-related. These included:
Decreased glucose in females (15 and 50 mg/kg/day) Increased cholesterol in females (50 mg/kg/day) Decreased A/G ratio in females (150 mg/kg/day)
The NOEL for chemistry was 15 mg/kg/day for both male and female rats based on the elevation in urea nitrogen in rats dosed with 50 mg/kg/day.

DPT 443/984760
ORGAN WEIGHTS (Table 6, Appendix 4) A higher and statistically significant group mean absolute kidney weight was apparent for males and females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, in comparison with the controls. In males receiving 150 mg/kg/day, a lower absolute group mean liver but a higher bodyweightadjusted group mean liver weight was seen. A higher group mean bodyweight-adjusted liver weight was apparent for females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, compared to the controls. For females receiving 150 mg/kg/day, a lower absolute heart, spleen and adrenal weight were noted, in comparison with the controls. In the absence o f corroborative pathological findings, these variations in organ weight are of uncertain toxicological importance. The higher bodyweightadjusted brain weight seen for females receiving 150 mg/kg/day is unlikely to be related to treatment, since this organ weight is not affected by bodyweight changes.
MACROSCOPIC PATHOLOGY (Table 7, Appendix 5) The macroscopic examination performed at termination revealed the following changes: Kidneys: Enlargement, pallor and swollen appearance was noted in 5/5 males and 5/5 female rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 male and 0/5 female control rats. Pale cortical foci were observed in 3/5 male and 2/5 female rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 male and 0/5 female control rats. Irregular cortical scarring was observed in 2/5 male and 5/5 female rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 male and 0/5 female control rats. U reters and urinary bladder: Unilateral distension o f the ureter and blood stained urine in the ureter and urinary bladder were seen in 1/5 male rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 male control rats. Liver: Pallor was observed in 3/5 male and 4/5 female rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 male and 0/5 female control rats. Adipose tissue: A reduction in adipose tissue was noted in 5/5 male and 5/5 female rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 male and 0/5 female control rats. Ovaries and uterus: A reduction in size o f both was observed in 1/5 female rats receiving 150 mg/kg/day compared with 0/5 female control rats. The incidence and distribution o f all the other findings were considered to fall within the expected background range of macroscopic changes.

Bone m arrow (Fem ur/joint) - An increased incidence of prominent adipocytes was detected and 150 mg/kg/day and may have been related to the decreased erythrocyte parameters recorded.
Other findings
Ovaries/Uterus - There was some evidence o f possible perturbation o f the oestrus cycle with sparse/few corpora lutea and myometrial/endometrial atrophy recorded for some animals. These changes are likely to have been related to the decreased food consumption, suppressed bodyweight gain and reduced adipose tissue noted macroscopically.
Incidental findings
All other changes described in the individual animal reports were considered spontaneous in origin and therefore of no toxicological importance.
Conclusion
Evidence o f nephrotoxicity was detected at 150 mg/kg/day and to a lesser extent at 50 mg/kg/day. In addition, hepatocyte hypertrophy and fine vacuolation and an increased incidence of prominent adipocytes in the bone marrow were also detected at 150 mg/kg/day.

DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION
DPT 443/984760
The test s u b s t a n c e ,a ^ m P ^ P j w a s administered by oral gavage once daily to groups o f five male and five female rats for twenty eight consecutive days at dosage levels o f 15, 50 or 150 mg/kg/day (expressed as solids, not as material supplied). A further group o f control rats was administered the vehicle, distilled water, alone.
Adverse changes in bodyweight gain, food consumption, haematology, biochemistry, organ weights and pathology were noted for animals receiving 150 mg/kg/day, and to a lesser extent for animals receiving 50 mg/kg/day. No behavioural changes attributable to treatment were noted.
At 15 mg/kg/day, male blood urea nitrogen values were higher than control, consistent with a dosage
related response although at a level considered to be o f no biological significance. Other findings
attributable to treatment were only noted at 150"or 50 mg/kg/day. PPw ai^oncIuded "that 15
mg/kg/day represent the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) f o r f l m j ^ j j j ^ P p l i the rat
when administered orally for 28 days.
^
Nephrotoxicity lesions noted at microscopic examination reflect an increased kidney weight at necropsy, and were often graded as o f moderate severity. It is considered that these lesions were likely to be related to alterations in biochemical parameters (increased blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, bilirubin, potassium, calcium and phosphorus, and lower sodium and chloride concentrations). In addition, it is possible to speculate that the degree o f renal damage may have resulted in impaired haemopoietin production, which would account for the general decrease in erythrocyte parameters and increased prominent adipocytes in the bone marrow at 150 mg/kg/day.
The findings at 150 mg/kg/day were considered to be adverse in nature. According to the EEC
Council Directive 92/69/EEC Annex VI, Part 11(D), as described imCommission Directive
93/21/EEC, labelling with the R48 risk phrase is appropriate. Hence
s labelled:
R48/22: Harmful if swallowed.

EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE
DPT 443/984760
NEUROBEHAVIOURAL SCREENING
During the study, a functional observational battery and motor activity were performed at approximately the same time of day. Not all rats were tested in one day, but time of testing was balanced across tbe groups. Observations made during the treatment period were made prior to dosing. In addition observations in Week 4 were performed prior to any laboratory investigations.
A bill functional observational battery was performed during the pre-dose period, and during Week 4. A shortened battery was performed during Weeks 1, 2 and 3. The functional observational battery is detailed below:
The battery comprised 3 sets of observations. The first set was performed when initially handling the animal. The second set of observations was performed in the test arena and the third set comprised handling/specific testing of the animal. All these observations were made with the observer blind to the treatment condition of the animal.
Observations in the hand:
Ease of removing the animal from the cage Reactivity to handling (ease o f handling) Salivation/lacrimation Exophthalmus Piloerection Fur appearance Vocalisation on handling
Observation in the arena:
Occurrence of convulsions, tremors, twitches Activity counts Level of arousal Rearing count Grooming Assessment of gait/posture Palpebral closure Record presence of faecal boluses, urine

DPT 443/984760
Manipulations*:
Approach response Touch response Auditory startle response Righting reflex Tail pinch response Pupil reflex Grip strength (fore and hindlimb) Landing footsplay Body temperature (C) Bodyweight (g)
At any point during the observations, additional comments were made as free text where considered appropriate.
* The manipulations were only made during the pre-dose period and Week 4.
Although bodyweight was recorded, no discussion o f any possible effects o f treatment on bodyweight is presented in this report as this has been covered in the main report
For the observations, if all animals in all groups failed to show a given sign such as lacrimation this sign has been omitted from presentation in the report although it has been recorded on the raw data sheet
Motor activity was performed before initiation of treatment and during the 4th week of treatment and was monitored using a Coulboum Infra-Red Activity Monitoring System. (System supplied by Coulboum Instruments, Lehigh Valley, PA, U.S.A.).
This system uses an infra-red detector to monitor activity. The following categories o f activity are recorded: the time spent in no movement, locomotor and non-locomotor activity. The number of occurrences (events) of each categoty is also recorded. For reporting this data, only the time spent in locomotor activity is presented.
For testing, designated animals were placed singly into observation cages. Once all animals had been placed into the cages, the test session programme was started. The test session for each animal was 1 hour. Data was collected every 2 minutes and written onto a floppy disk.
The functional observational battery was performed in Room 27 and the motor activity monitoring was performed in Room 26.
ANALYSIS AND PRESENTATION OF THE BEHAVIOURAL SCREENING DATA
The following datr were routinely subjected to statistical analysis: rearing and activity counts, grip strength, hind limb splay, bodyweight and temperature. These data were analysed using a one-way analysis of variance followed by Williams' test (Williams 1971/2) for a dose-related response. Pre-dose data was analysed by analysis of variance followed by Student's 'f test

DPT 443/984760
The reporting o f the categorical data for the observational battery has been handled in the following manner. The observational endpoints such as ease of handling, arousal, etc., have been tabulated for frequency o f occurrence for each group. Although during recording, some responses were classified in terms o f the degree or type o f response (ie startle: no reaction, an ear twitch, a flinch, etc.), for the purposes o f reporting, as there were no remarkable differences between the groups, for a given endpoint the response has been reported as being either present or absent
As there were no remarkable differences in the incidence of observations, no statistical analyses were performed on the categorical data.
The Coulboum activity data were analysed using a one-way analysis of variance followed by Williams test (Williams 1971/2) for a dose-related response. Pre-dose data were analysed by analysis o f variance followed by Students 'f test

Rearing and activity counts
Counts were made of rearing and activity when the animals were in the arena. A count for rearing was counted every time the animal lifted both fore feet clear of a supporting surface. The floor of the arena was marked off into 6 equal areas ("squares"). A count for activity was made whenever the animal moved all four feet into one of these squares.

Calibration
A primary standard solution was prepared fgr each analytical occasion by dissolving an accurately weighed nnantifv /SO mo~l r>f ^ j j p W p n water (50 ml). Solutions for instrument calibration, c o n t a i n i n g U ^ B i f l l f l i t concentrations o f 50 pg/ml, 100 pg/ml, 150 pg/ml, 200 pg/ml and 250 pg/m vw ere prepared oy appropriate dilution of the primary standard using solvent A.
Calibration solutions were injected onto the HPLC, at the beginning and end of each sample analysis sequence, using the conditions detailed in the previous section.
Calculation
The peak height response
each calibration chromatogram was measured and
calibration curves were constructed by linear regression o f standard response versus standard
.concentration. The height response o f the peak observed at the characteristic n ntion volume of
m m m m sample chromatograms was measured and the concentration o:
as
' determined using the following equation:
Concentration, mg / ml = Y - I x V x 10"
Where
Y I S V
Peak height response for Zonyl FS-62 in test chromatogram Intercept derived from linear regression o f calibration data Slope derived from linear regression o f calibration data Dilution factor of sample
VALIDATION OF THE ANALYTICAL PROCEDURE
The analytical procedure was validated by determining the specificity o f the chromatographic analysis, linearity o f detector response, precision of injection, limit of detection, method accuracy and precision.
Specificity
Chromatogramstibtained for control extracts were examined for peaks which might interfere with the quantitation of
Linearity
The linearity o f the standard curve was examined by preparing a series of standard solutions (50 pg/ml, 100 pg/ml, 150 pg/ml, 200 pg/ml and 250 pg/ml) to encompass the working range of the assay. The peak height for each standard was plotted against the concentration using least square regression analysis to provide information on the slope, intercept and correlation coefficient.

System precision
The repeatability of injections was evaluated by determining the precision of six replicate injections of both the lowest standard solution (50 pg/ml) and the highest standard solution (250 jig/ml).
Limit of detection
The limit o f detection, defined as the concentration ofl
control matrix producing a
signal to noise ratio o f at least 3, was determined by fortifying an ex ict of control vehicle (distilled
water) w i t t ^ f l H H ^ I B a provide a peak of suitable size.
Method accuracy and precision
Prior to the start of treatment, specimen formulations c o n t a i n i n g f i ^ H H I H i n distilled water at nominal concentrations of 5 mg/ml and 400 mg/ml were prepared by Pharmacy personnel. The analytical procedure was validated at the low and high inclusion levels by determining the accuracy and precision o f analytical results generated for the analysis of six replicate samples from the prepared formulations.
STABILITY IN AQUEOUS FORMULATIONS
Prior to treatment, specimen aqueous formulations (400 ml) c o n ta in in o J ^ m ^ B ^ ^ ^ ^ t nominal concentrations o f 5 mg/ml and 400 mg/ml, were prepared and equally subdivided (4 x 100 ml) into four amber screw-top bottles by Pharmacy personnel at the Huntingdon Research Centre and submitted for analysis. On receipt, one bottle o f each formulation was retained for immediate analysis (Day 0) and analysis following ambient temperature storage for 4 hours and 48 hours. The remainder were refrigerated (nominally +4C) for 2, 8 and 15 days.
At each time point, the appropriate formulations were mixed by inversion and sampled in duplicate from the approximate centre for analysis. D ie formulations removed from refrigerated storage were allowed to equilibrate to ambient temperature for 1 hour prior to sampling for analysis. The 400 mg/ml formulations were examined for evidence o f any precipitate and, if present, the formulation was gently warmed to 35C to achieve solution, cooled to ambient temperature and sampled.
At each time-point, the two sub-samples from each formulation were analysed in accordance with the analytical procedure.
CONCENTRATION IN TEST FORMULATIONS
At specified intervals (V eek 1) during treatment, freshly prepared test formulations were sampled (20 ml) by Pharmacy personnel at the Huntingdon Research Centre and the samples were submitted for analysis. On receipt, each formulation was thoroughly mixed by vigorous shaking and duplicate samples (1 ml) were analysed in accordance with the analytical procedure.

The mean concentrations o ^ f l j j j H H R ' n test formulations analysed during the study and the deviation of mean results froJtfnominal values are detailed in Table 1.
The results obtained for the stability o ^ f l B m H ^ F b r m u l a t e d distilled water formulations are presented in Table 2.
The results for the validation o f the analytical procedure determined with respect to the linearity of detector response, system precision, method accuracy and precision are presented in Table 3.
A typical calibration standard graph is presented in Figure 1. Typical analytical chromatograms are presented in Figure 2.
DISCUSSION
The mean concentrations of ___________ Jin test formulations analysed during the study were within -7% o f nominal concenl ations, confirming the accuracy of formulation.
Prior to treatment, the stability for j J H j j j U H l t 11 aqueous formulation at nominal concentrations o f 5 mg/ml and 400 m g^^w a^confbm eu with respect to the level o f concentration. The mean analysed concentration remained close to nominal (within -6.5% ) during ambient
temperature storage for 2 days and refrigerated storage for up to 15 days.
The linearity o f detector response was confirmed for 50 pg/ml - 250 pg/ml.
over the concentration range
'injection was confirmed for six replicate injections of standard solutions containing -,a nominal concentration o f 50 jig/ml and 250 pg/ml, for which the coefficients of
variation were less than 1.5%.
The accuracy and precision of the analytical procedure was confirmed: a mean procedural recovery value o f 97.5% (CV = 0.99%, n = 6) was obtained for 5 mg/ml and 94.5% (CV = 2.41%, n = 6) for
400 mg/ml.
.

SEVEN DAY ORAL TOXICITY STUDY IN THE RAT EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURE
Groups o f six rat (three males and three females) were treated w i t h ^ m ^ ^ H ^ p t dosages o f 250, 500 or 750 m g/kg/day (Groups 2 to 4 respectively) formulated as 25, 50 and 75 mg/ml solutions in distilled water at a dosage volume o f 10 ml/kg/day. All dosages are reported as solids, not as material supplied. The formulations were prepared on a daily basis and if necessary, the formulations were warmed to 35 - 40C prior to use to ensure that a true solution was obtained. A control group (Group 1) o f three males and three females received the vehicle alone at the same dose volume.

During the study, clinical signs were recorded prior to dosing and at regular intervals following dosing on a daily basis. Bodyweights were recorded prior to dosing, on the day o f commencement of treatment (Day 1), on Day 4 and 8. Food consumption was recorded on a weekly basis during the treatment period. A t p o st m ortem organ weights and the macroscopic appearance o f the tissues were noted. Macroscopic abnormalities were retained for possible future examination.
All procedures undertaken were as described in the accompanying report for the 4 week study (DPT 443/984760).
The protocol approval page was signed by the Study Director and Huntingdon Management on 9 November 1998 and by the Sponsor on 30 November 1998. Treatment commenced on 11 November 1998 and all surviving animals were sacrificed on 17 Novem ber 1998 following the completion o f seven days of treatment.

All o f the animals receiving 500 or 750 mg/kg/day were sacrificed or found dead in the period Days 3 - 6 o f the study.
There were no unscheduled deaths amongst the animals receiving 250 mg/kg/day or the controls.
CLIN ICA L SIGNS (Appendix 3) Salivation, immediately after dosing was noted in all treated animals.
B O D Y W E IG H T (Table 1, Appendix 1) A group mean bodyweight loss over the first 3 days o f treatment was seen for all treated groups of anim al^ with a dosage-relationship apparent. A lower group mean bodyweight gain over the 7-day treatment period, was observed for animals receiving 250 mg/kg/day, when compared with the controls.
FO O D CONSUM PTION (Table 2) Lower food consumption values were noted for all treated groups o f animals, when compared with the controls.
O R G A N W EIG H TS (Table 3, Appendix 2) Higher group mean kidney weights and lower absolute spleen weights were noted for animals receiving 250 mg/kg/day, when compared with the controls. A higher group mean bodyweightaajusted liver weight was apparent for males and females receiving 250 mg/kg/day.

CONCLUSION As a no-effect level was not determined in this study and since the purpose o f the 4 week study is to determine the labelling criteria for the test substance, the high dosage level for the subsequent 4 week study (Huntingdon Life Sciences schedule number DPT/443) was set at 150 mg/kg/day (a labelling point under the OECD guidelines). The next dosage level in relation to the labelling criteria is 15 mg/kg/day and therefore, this would be suitable for the low dosage level. The intermediate dosage level was set at 50 mg/kg/day.
