Rettenmaier & Söhne GmbH & CoKG, 73494 Rosenberg / Germany, imported by Provimi Kliba SA, 4303 Kaiseraugst / Switzerland, ). During the pre-pairing period, cages with males were interspersed amongst those holding females to promote the development of regular estrus cycles.

- Purity: not given - Details on mating procedure:
- During the pairing period, females were housed with sexually mature males (1:1) in special
automatic mating cages i.e. with synchronized timing to initiate the nightly mating period, until
evidence of copulation was observed. This system reduced the variation in the copulation times
of the different females. The females were removed and housed individually if:
- the daily vaginal smear was sperm positive, or
- a copulation plug was observed.
The day of mating was designated day 0 post coitum.
All dams were allowed to give birth and rear their litters (F1 pups) up to day 4 post partum.
Day 0 was designated as the day on which a female had delivered all her pups. - Analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- yes
- Details on analytical verification of doses or concentrations:
- The samples received were dissolved in acetone by sonication for 5 minutes and then diluted to volume with dilution solvent. The sample solutions were further diluted with dilution solvent into the calibration range.

Examinations
- Parental animals: Observations and examinations:
- Viability / Mortality: Twice daily
Clinical Signs: Daily cage-side clinical observations (once daily, during acclimatization and up to day of necropsy). Additionally females were observed for signs of difficult or prolonged parturition, and behavioral abnormalities in nesting and nursing.
Food Consumption: Males: Weekly during pre-pairing and after pairing periods.
Females: Pre-pairing period days 1 - 8 and 8 - 14 of the pre-pairing period; gestation days 0 - 7, 7 - 14 and 14 - 21 post coitum, and days 1 - 4 post partum. No food consumption was recorded during the pairing period.
Body Weights: Recorded daily from treatment start to day of necropsy. - Oestrous cyclicity (parental animals):
- not reported
- Sperm parameters (parental animals):
- Parameters examined in [P] male parental generations:
[testis weight, epididymis weight] - Litter observations:
- Pup Data: The litters were examined for litter size, live births, still births and any gross anomalies. The sex ratio of the pups was recorded. Pups were weighed individually (without identification) on days 0 (if possible), 1 and 4 post partum.
- Postmortem examinations (parental animals):
- All parent animals and pups were examined macroscopically for any structural changes, either at the scheduled necropsy or during the study if death occurred.
For the parent animals, special attention was directed to the organs of the reproductive system. The number of implantation sites and corpora lutea was recorded for all dams with litters. The uteri of non-pregnant females were placed in a solution of ammonium sulfide to visualize possible hemorrhagic areas of implantation sites
The testes and epididymides of all parental males were weighed as pairs. - Postmortem examinations (offspring):
- Dead pups, except those excessively cannibalized, were examined macroscopically.
- Statistics:
- The following statistical methods were used to analyze food consumption, body weights and
reproduction data:
• Means and standard deviations of various data were calculated.
• The Dunnett-test (many to one t-test) based on a pooled variance
estimate was applied if the variables could be assumed to follow a normal distribution
for the comparison of the treated groups and the control groups for each sex.
• The Steel-test (many-one rank test) was applied instead of the
Dunnett-test when the data could not be assumed to follow a normal distribution.
• Fisher's exact-test was applied if the variables could be
dichotomized without loss of information. - Reproductive indices:
- From the on-line recorded reproduction data, the following parameters were calculated: fertility indices, mean precoital time, post-implantation losses, mean litter size, pup sex ratios and viability indices.
- Offspring viability indices:
- For reproduction data, group mean values were calculated both on a litter basis and on a percentage per group basis. Mean pup weights were calculated from the individual weights both on a per group and on a per litter basis.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- No effects on for reproduction/development of rats were noticed up to the highest concentration tested of 1000 mg/kg bw.
- Executive summary:
Isopropenyl acetate (purity 99.3%) was administered to male rats for 28 days and to female rats for 14 days prior to pairing, through the pairing and gestation periods until the F1 pups reached day 4 post partum according to OECD Guideline 421. The following dose levels were applied: 0 (control group), 50, 200 and 1000 mg/kg body weight/day. A standard dose volume of 5 mL/kg body weight with a daily adjustment to the actual body weight was used. Control animals were dosed with the vehicle alone (corn oil).
No deaths occurred in parent animals before scheduled termination. No test item-related adverse clinical signs were observed during the study at any dose level. At the dose levels of 200 and 1000 mg/kg/day, salivation was observed in males and females. This observation was considered to be a sign of discomfort caused by the test item but not an adverse effect. Food consumption was not affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level neither in males nor in females. Body weights and body weight gain were not affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level neither in males nor in females. Except for one female at the dose level of 50 mg/kg/day, all females were mated, became pregnant and gave birth. Mating performance, fertility, gestation and parturition were not affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level. Weights of testes and epididymides were not affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level. No gross lesions attributed to treatment with the test item were noted at any dose level. No test item-related histopathology findings were noted neither in males nor in females treated with the test item at the highest dose. No test item-related histopathology findings were noted during examination of reproductive organs of female which did not become pregnant and its male partner at the dose level of 50 mg/kg/day.
Number of pups at first litter check and viability of pups up to day 4 post partum were considered not to be affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level. Sex ratios at first litter check and on day 4 post partum were considered not to be affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level. No abnormal findings were noted at first litter check and during the first 4 days post partum at any dose level. Pups body weights and body weight gain to day 4 post partum were not affected by the treatment with the test item at any dose level. No findings were noted at macroscopic examination of pups at any dose level.
Under the conditions described for this study, the general NOAEL (No Observed Adverse Effect Level) for parental organism was considered to be 1000 mg/kg body weight/day. The NOEL (No Observed Effect Level) for reproduction/developmental toxicity was considered to be 1000 mg/kg body weight/day.
