Di-n-octyl phthalate<br />
US Agency <strong>for</strong> Toxic Substances and Disease<br />

Minimal <strong>Risk</strong> levels<br />
Groups of 10 male and 10 female Sprague-Dawley rats<br />
were maintained on diets containing 0, 5, 50, 500, or<br />
5,000 ppm di-n-octylphthalate (DNOP) in the diet <strong>for</strong> 13<br />
weeks. The study authors determined that these<br />
dietary concentrations corresponded to doses of 0, 0.4,<br />
3.5, 36.8, 350.1 mg/kg/day (males) and 0, 0.4, 4.1, 40.8,<br />
402.9 mg/kg/day (females). The rats were examined<br />
daily <strong>for</strong> clinical signs of toxicity, while food<br />
consumption and body weight data were collected<br />
weekly. Blood and comprehensive histopathological<br />
examinations were per<strong>for</strong>med at the end of the study<br />
(although only data on the liver, thyroid, testis, and<br />
epididymis were presented).<br />
Liver effects observed in rats administered di-n-octylphthalate in the<br />
diet at a concentration of 5,000 ppm; the study authors calculated the<br />
doses at this concentration to be 350.1 mg/kg/day (males) and 402.9<br />
mg/kg/day (females) (Peon et al. 1995). The hepatic effects consisted<br />
of a significant (p < 0.05) increases in ethoxyresorufin-0-deethylase<br />
activity (12-fold, males; 3-fold, females); no significant changes were<br />
noted in liver aminopyrine-N-demethylase or aniline hydrolase<br />
activities. Also, at 5,000 ppm, histopathological changes in hepatic<br />
architecture were noted, including moderate accentuation of zonation<br />
and mild-to-moderate increases in perivenous cytoplasmic vacuolation.<br />
Mild histological changes in the thyroid were also noted at 5,000 ppm<br />
that consisted of reduction in the follicle size and decreased colloid<br />
density. No effects were observed at 500 ppm (36.8 mg/kg/day <strong>for</strong><br />
males and 40.8 mg/kg/day <strong>for</strong> females).<br />
