Examinations

Details of tissue and slide preparation:
CRITERIA FOR DOSE SELECTION:
Range finding study performed to find the maximum tolerated dose

TREATMENT AND SAMPLING TIMES ( in addition to information in specific fields):


DETAILS OF SLIDE PREPARATION:
Slides fixed with methanol and stained in May-Grunwald solution followed by Giemsa.

METHOD OF ANALYSIS:
Scored for micronuclei and the polychromatic erythrocyte (PCE) to normochromatic erythrocyte (NCE) cell ration.

OTHER:
Evaluation criteria:
Statistically sifnificant dose-related increase in micronucleated PCE's and the detection of a statictically sifnificant postive response for at least one dose level.
Statistics:
The frequency of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes between treated groups and vehicle controls were compared. Tests included Cochran-Armitage test for trend, a one-way analysis of variance and Dunnett’s procedure.

EC 234-277-6, zinc bis[bis(dodecylphenyl)]bis(dithiophosphatei, s generically referred to as zinc dialkylthiophosphate (ZDDP). In vitro genotoxicity study is not available for this substance. However, sufficient data are available for a group of substances, which are produced under similar manufacturing procedures and used in commerce as multi-functional anti-wear and anti-oxidation inhibitor performance components in passenger motor oils, diesel engine oils and industrial oils such as hydraulic lubricants. They share great chemical similarity and have been considered as a category (HPV Test Plan).

In the “Mammalian Erythrocyte Micronucleus Test”, no statistically significant increases in micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes over the levels observed in the vehicle controls were observed in either sex or at any harvest time point or dose levels in mice

Result

84605-29-8

Negative (Doses:0, 7.13, 14.3 and 28.5 mg/kg)

4259-15-8

Negative (doses:0, 6, 12 and 24 mg/kg)

 

  

Based on these results, the ZDDP material is unlikely to be cytogenic in the tested animals. For the sake of simplicity, the current technical dossier only presents the data on EC 224-235-5.

EC 234-377-6 is predicted to be non-cytogenic.
