OECD SIDS o-<strong>TOLUIDINE</strong><br />

5. TOXICITY ID: <strong>95</strong>-<strong>53</strong>-4<br />

DATE: 07.01.2005<br />

264<br />

kidneys, ovaries, heart and lung<br />

for effects on parent animals : see chapter 5.8.1<br />

Reliability : (4) not assignable<br />

documentation insufficient for assessment, no sufficient information on<br />

methods and results<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

26.05.2004 (163)<br />

Species : mouse<br />

Sex : female<br />

Strain : Balb/c<br />

Route of admin. : s.c.<br />

Exposure period : last week of pregnancy<br />

Frequency of treatm. : 4 - 5 injections<br />

Duration of test :<br />

Doses : 2 mg/animal<br />

Control group : yes<br />

Method : other: tumor development in progeny<br />

Year : 1974<br />

GLP : no<br />

Test substance : other TS: o-tolidine see also RM<br />

Remark : This work is cited in RTECS and as second literature in MAK-Begründung<br />

1986, but test substance is not clearly defined. In the english translation<br />

test substance is called o-tolidine.<br />

Result : After treatment with OT, half of the 16 mice studied were found to have<br />

tumors: adenomas of the lung in six and tumors of the mammary glands in<br />

five.<br />

Culturing of the kidneys of the progeny from the treated females resulted in<br />

specific hyperplastic pretoumerous alterations of the respective epithelium.<br />

Reliability : (4) not assignable<br />

Insufficient documentation and/or Secondary literature/ Test substance<br />

questionable<br />

26.05.2004 (363) (364)<br />

Species : mouse<br />

Sex : female<br />

Strain : Balb/c<br />

Route of admin. : s.c.<br />

Exposure period : whole period of gestation<br />

Frequency of treatm. : every 4-5 days<br />

Duration of test :<br />

Doses : 2 mg in sunflower oil/animal<br />

Control group :<br />

Method : other: see freetect ME<br />

Year : 1969<br />

GLP : no<br />

Test substance : other TS: o-toluidine, no data on purity<br />

Method : Females were injected every 4-5 days during pregnancy. one-two days<br />

before the delivery the pregnant animals were killed and embryonic tissues<br />

were explantated in organ cultures. Explants were examined by histological<br />

and autoradiographic methods.<br />

Result : Whereas in the control cultures there was only degeneration, necrobiosis<br />

and necrosis, in the cultures from treated embryos marked irregular<br />

hyperplasia was seen from day 3 or 4 and occasionally even focal growth.<br />

Instead of necrotic glomeruli, cysts developed; the epithelium of the tubuli<br />

contoti proliferated into the lumen, the epithelial cells were hypercchromatic<br />

and mitoses could be seen<br />
