Abstract：
:Rats received 0, 200, 1000 and 5000 ppm metaldehyde in the diet for 2 years. Reproduction studies over three generations using the same dietary levels were carried out. In the third litter of each generation attention was paid to possible embryotoxic or teratogenic effects. The parameters studied included growth, food intake, behaviour and survival, haematology, clinical biochemistry, organ weight, histopathology, reproductive performance and teratogenicity. At 5000 ppm the relative liver weight was increased and this was accompanied by an increase in liver microsomal enzyme activity. The most striking observation was a dose-related development of posterior paralysis in females due to a transverse lesion of the spinal cord. The latency period was more than 550 days. Three rats with posterior paralysis showed a transverse lesion of the spinal cord. No significant histological damage to other organs was seen. The tumour incidence was not increased in any of the metaldehyde dosage groups. The reproduction study confirmed the findings of the long-term test. Posterior paralysis appeared in at least 50% of the females on 5000 ppm metaldehyde in all 3 generations. Some were affected at 1000 ppm but none at 200 ppm. Histologically, a fracture or distortion of thoracic vertebrae and subsequent compression of the spinal cord was found. The onset of paralysis was related to the time of delivery. The reproductive performance was susceptibility in this respect to metaldehyde. Apart from one male rat on 200 ppm with clinical posterior paralysis without transverse lesions in the spinal cord, this level was without toxic effects both in the long-term and 3-generation reproduction study.
