Materials and methods

Type of study / information:
The induction of anaemia and reticulocytosis by 4-chlorophenylhydrazine and other substances was investigated.
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Female rabbits were used for the induction of anaemia and reticulocytosis. Subcutaneous injections were administered day 1 to 4 after a baseline sample of blood was taken. Additional samples of blood were taken 2, 5, and 7 days after the baseline sample. Packed cell volume, reticulocyte count and erythrocyte count were determined.
GLP compliance:

Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

Unsubstituted phenylhydrazine was the most effective inducer of anaemia and reticulocytosis. The relative effectiveness of the substituted compounds corresponded primarily with position and secondarily with number of substituents.

The most effective of the substituted compounds were those with one or two chlorine atoms at ring positions meta (3- or 5 -) or para (4 -) to the hydrazino group, namely the 3- or 4 -chloro- and the 3,4- or 3,5 -dichlorophenylhydrazines.

4 -chlorophenylhydrazine was therefore an effective inducer of anaemia and reticulocytosis.
