Test condition : TEST ORGANISMS<br />
- Age: 8 weeks at the study start<br />
- Weight at study initiation: 132 g<br />
- Number of animals: 30 male rats/group<br />
ANIMAL MAINTENANCE<br />
Housing: 3 rats/cage<br />
Diet: NIH-07, ad libitum<br />
Water: ad libitum<br />
Room air: 21°C, relative humidity: 50 %<br />
lightening: light/dark cycle of 12-h duration<br />
ADMINISTRATION / EXPOSURE<br />
- Administration of TS: 72 weeks<br />
- Duration of test: 93 weeks<br />
- Post exposure period: approx. 20 weeks<br />
- Vehicle: diet (NIH-07)<br />
- Concentration in vehicle: 0.028 mol/kg feed = 4g/kg feed = 4000 ppm<br />
CLINICAL OBSERVATIONS AND FREQUENCY<br />
- Body weight: mean data recorded at the onset, after 1 year and after 73<br />
weeks<br />
- Food consumption: in 3 animals/group over a 2 days period<br />
every 3 weeks<br />
- Clinical signs: no data<br />
- Mortality: recorded monthly from month 8 to month 22 of the test period<br />
ORGANS EXAMINED AT NECROPSY (MACROSCOPIC AND<br />
MICROSCOPIC):<br />
- All remaining animals were killed after 93<br />
test weeks.<br />
- Upon necropsy, gross lesions and representative samples of major<br />
organs (no details specified) were fixed in 10% buffered formalin and<br />
processed for microscopic evaluation.<br />
STATISTICS:<br />
STATISTICAL METHODS: significance was evaluated by the chi-squaretest<br />
Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />
study doesn't meet the criteria of today: too short in uration, to small<br />
number of animals , only one dose, reported in brief<br />
Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />
03.06.2004 (361) (356)<br />
Species : rat<br />
Sex : no data<br />
Strain : other: no data<br />
