Endpoint:
screening for reproductive / developmental toxicity
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because a pre-natal developmental toxicity study is available
Justification for type of information:
Groups of 50 male and 50 female F344 DuCrj rats (aged 6 weeks) were given drinking-water containing 0, 2.5 or 5% glycine (equivalent to approximately 0, 2500 or 5000mg/kgbw per day) for 108 weeks. A complete histopathological evaluation performed at necropsy with no effects noted on any reproductive organs.

Developmental toxicity was investigated in mice, rats, and hamsters. No treatment-related effects were seen in the number of implantation sites, resorbed or dead fetuses, number of live fetuses, sex distribution,or fetal external, visceral, or skeletal deveopment.
