Developmental toxicity of chlorpropham in mice.

The present studies were designed to evaluate the developmental toxicity of chlorpropham in mice. The first study was conducted to determine administration time, and the second study was designed to evaluate dose-response effects. Chlorpropham was administered to pregnant mice by gavage on Days 8, 8.3, 9, 9.3, 10, and 11 of gestation at a level of 3000 mg/kg bw, and the females were killed on Day 18 of gestation. The administration on Day 8.3 of gestation induced the highest percentage of external malformations with brachyury occurring among more litters than in other groups. Chlorpropham was administered to pregnant mice by gavage at a level of 0 (control), 750, 1500, and 3000 mg/kg bw on Day 8.3 of gestation, and the females were killed on Day 18 of gestation. The total resorption rate was significantly increased in the 3000 mg/kg bw group. The average fetal body weight of each sex was significantly reduced in the 3000 mg/kg treatment group. The total incidence of external malformations was significantly increased in the two highest dose groups in a dose-related manner. Again brachyury was significantly increased in the 3000 mg/kg bw group.

Developmental toxicity study of piperonyl butoxide in CD rats.

Piperonyl butoxide was administered to pregnant rats by gavage at a level of 0 (control), 630, 1065, and 1800 mg/kg bw on days 11-12 of gestation. The animals were killed on day 20 of gestation. Average maternal body weight gain (gestational days 11-20) was significantly reduced in the 1065 and 1800 mg/kg bw groups. Total resorption rate was significantly increased in the 1800 mg/kg bw group and those effects were significantly dose-related. The average fetal body weight of each sex was significantly reduced in the 1065 and 1800 mg/kg bw groups. External limb deformity (oligodactyly, syndactyly, and polydactyly) was significantly increased in the 1065 and 1800 mg/kg bw groups in a dose-related manner. The dose levels of piperonyl butoxide in the present study produced limb deformities in rats.
