In a fertility study in rat and rabbit, no effects or slight, non dose related, reduction of fertility were observesd after test item administration of 1000 - 2000 mg/kg bw [1]. After daily administration of the test item to pregnant mice for 17 or 18 days, a TDLo of 8500 mg/kg bw/d (Effect Code T39) or 9000 mg/kg bw/d (Effect Code T83), respectively, was determined [2].

In contrast, infertility was observed in female rats treated with 1000 mg/kg bw/d test item for longer than one week. Infertility was based on the altered structure (thinning of zona pellucida) of the ovarian follicles. Fertility recovered after the end of test item administration [3]. However, the administration route was i.v., thereby bypassing the hepatic clearance. Metabolic studies have shown a strong first pass effect for the test item, limiting the bioavailability after oral administration. Furthermore, these studies were not conducted according to existing guidelines for reprotox-screening. Therefore, the results of these studies were disregarded for classification.
