Examinations

Parental animals: Observations and examinations:
Survival, Clinical sign, Body weight and food consumption were observed.
Oestrous cyclicity (parental animals):
No data available
Sperm parameters (parental animals):
Analysis of epididymal spermatozoan numbers and motility, and testicular spermatid head countswere determined.
Litter observations:
Live pups, Clinical signs and weight gain were observed.
Postmortem examinations (parental animals):
Organ weight, gross pathology and histopathology were observed.
Postmortem examinations (offspring):
Abnormalities were observed.
Statistics:
Homogeneity of data were evaluated by Bartlett's test (p, 0.01), analysis of variance (ANOVA, <0.05), and Dunnett's test (p, 0.05). When the variances of the means were not considered equal by Bartlett's test, the data were evaluated by Kruskal-Wallis H-test (p, 0.05) followed by Mann-Whitney U-test (p<0.05). The reproductive performance of dams and fertility and fecundity indices were evaluated in contingency tables, using Chi-square test (p,0.05). The total number of pups per litter (live and dead) and the total number of live pups per litter were evaluated by a linear regression model.
Reproductive indices:
Fertility and fecundity indices were observed.
Offspring viability indices:
The total number of pups per litter (live and dead) and the total number of live pups per litter were evaluated

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
NOAEL was considered to be 80 ppm (8 mg/kg/day) (actual dose 7.86 mg/kg/day)for P generation and 1000 ppm (100 mg/kg) (actual dose 102.26 mg/kg/day) for F1 generation when Sprague-Dawley male and female rats treated with 2-Nonanone by Inhalation.
Executive summary:

In Combined repeated dose repro-devp. Screen test,Sprague-Dawleymale and female rats exposed to 2-Nonanoneby inhalation in the concentration of 0, 80, 400 and 1000 ppm. (0, 7.86, 40.58 and 102.26 mg/kg/day) Actual exposure concentrations is 0, 78.6, 405.8 and 1022.6 ppm (0,7.86, 40.58 and 102.26 mg/kg/day) 6 hours/day, 7 days/week for 50 days. No effect on survival,Body weight and weight gain were observed in treated rats as compared to control.Minimal reductions in activity level were observed in 40 and 100 mg/kg/day dose group andreduction in food consumption during days 0-7in 100 mg/kg/day dose groupwere observed as compared to control. In addition, no effects were observed on organ weight, gross pathology,Sperm parameterand histopathology of treated rats as compared to control. Similarly, no effects were observed on clinical sign, body weight gain and gross pathology of pups as compared to control. Therefore, NOAEL was considered to be80 ppm(8 mg/kg/day) (actual dose 7.86 mg/kg/day)for P generation and1000 ppm (100 mg/kg) (actual dose 102.26 mg/kg/day) for F1 generation whenSprague-Dawleymale and female rats treated with2-Nonanoneby inhalation6 hours/day, 7 days/week for 50 days.
