STATISTICS:<br />

Product-limit procedure of Kaplan and Meier<br />

Method of Cox with Tarone's extension<br />

Fisher exact test<br />

Bonferoni inequality<br />

Cochran-Armitage<br />

Conclusion : In conclusion, o-toluidine hydrochloride is considered to be carcinogenic in<br />

male and female B6C3Fl mice.<br />

This is based on the increased incidences of hepatocellular neoplasms in<br />

female mice and hemangiosarcomas in high-dose males and of females<br />

exposed to the compound.<br />

Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

24.05.2004 (159) (360) (356)<br />

Species : rat<br />

Sex : male<br />

Strain : Fischer 344<br />

Route of admin. : oral feed<br />

Exposure period : 72 weeks<br />

Frequency of treatm. : continuously<br />

Post exposure period : approx. 20 weeks<br />

Doses : 0, 4000 ppm (mean daily dose per rat - 0.062g, calculated from food<br />

consumption)<br />

Result :<br />

Control group : yes, concurrent no treatment<br />

Method : other: carcinogenicity see freetext TC<br />

Year : 1982<br />

GLP : no data<br />

Test substance : other TS: o-Toluidine hydrochloride, purified by recrystallization:<br />

m.p.: 216-218°C<br />

Result : ---mean daily food consumption/rat:<br />

15.5 g in the treatment group versus 17.9 g in controls<br />

---mean daily dose: 0.062 g 0-toluidine hydrochloride<br />

Mortality:<br />

treatment-group: no death up to month 14; month 22: 6/30 surviving rats<br />

control-group: no death up to month 12; month 22: 18/30 surviving control<br />

rat<br />

Mean Body weights:<br />

at onset: 132g of dosed rats as well as of controls<br />

after 1 year: 454 g(dosed rats) versus 400 g (control rats)<br />

after 93 weeks: 474 g (dosed rats) versus 411 g (control rats)<br />

Tumor incidences<br />

Number of rats necropsied: 30 dosed rats, 27 control rats<br />
