Results and discussion
Effect levels
- Remarks on result:
- other:
- Remarks:
- Scsukova, S. et al. (2020): Terminal body and ovary weights were not statistically significantly altered after neonatal TiO2 NP exposure. After ex vivo culture of rat ovaries collected on PND15, basal progesterone and estradiol levels measured in the culture media did not differ between control and both TiO2 NP-treated groups. The ovaries from rats neonatally exposed to both doses of TiO2 NPs failed to respond to FSH/IGF stimulation in progesterone secretion at all time intervals.
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- No conclusion can be drawn from the above publications due to lack of quality, reliability and adequacy of the experimental data for the fulfilment of data requirements under REACH.
The references contained in this summary entry represent non-guideline investigations with very limited value for risk assessment purposes. All references do not fulfil the criteria for quality, reliability and adequacy of experimental data for the fulfilment of data requirements under REACH and hazard assessment purposes (ECHA guidance R4 in conjunction with regulation (EC) 1907/2006, Annexes VII-X). The information contained therein were included for information purposes only.
Scsukova, S. et al. (2020): The study design is not compliant with any existing validated test guideline. The non-physiological administration via intraperitoneal injection is considered to be a non-relevant exposure route. The test material is insufficiently characterised. Only two dose levels were tested which hampers a robust analysis of potential dose-response relationships. The description of the test animals lacks details. Cytotoxicity was not evaluated. The stimulation of ex vivo ovaries is an artificial test system.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
