- Number of animals: control rats: 10; 20 rats treated with o-toluidine<br />
hydrochloride<br />
ANIMAL MAINTENANCE<br />

ADMINISTRATION / EXPOSURE<br />
rats were fed with o-toluidine hydrochloride for 26 weeks<br />
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS AND FREQUENCY: see chapter 5.4<br />
NECROPSY AND HISTOPATHLOGICAL EVALUATION: see chapter 5.4<br />
SUPPLEMENTAL EVALUATION<br />
liver samples were collected and examined for placental glutathione Stransferase-positive<br />
foci<br />
STATISTICAL METHODS:<br />
The number of placental glutathione S-transferase PGST) - positive foci<br />
per cubic centimeter of liver and the volume fraction of liver occupied by<br />
PGST-positive foci were analyzed with Wilcoxon's rank sum test (Conover,<br />
1971)<br />
Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />
special investigation: only 1 dose used, only male rats;<br />
treatment time was to short for a general carcinogenicity investigation<br />
