Savey; CASRN 78587-05-0
Health assessment information on a chemical substance is included in IRIS only after a comprehensive review of chronic toxicity data by U.S. EPA health scientists from several Program Offices and the Office of Research and Development. The summaries presented in Sections I and II represent a consensus reached in the review process. Background information and explanations of the methods used to derive the values given in IRIS are provided in the Background Documents.

_I. Chronic Health Hazard Assessments for Noncarcinogenic Effects
_I.A. Reference Dose for Chronic Oral Exposure (RfD)
Substance Name — Savey
CASRN — 78587-05-0
Primary Synonym — DPX-Y5893
Last Revised — 09/26/1988
The oral Reference Dose (RfD) is based on the assumption that thresholds exist for certain toxic effects such as cellular necrosis. It is expressed in units of mg/kg-day. In general, the RfD is an estimate (with uncertainty spanning perhaps an order of magnitude) of a daily exposure to the human population (including sensitive subgroups) that is likely to be without an appreciable risk of deleterious effects during a lifetime. Please refer to the Background Document for an elaboration of these concepts. RfDs can also be derived for the noncarcinogenic health effects of substances that are also carcinogens. Therefore, it is essential to refer to other sources of information concerning the carcinogenicity of this substance. If the U.S. EPA has evaluated this substance for potential human carcinogenicity, a summary of that evaluation will be contained in Section II of this file.

__I.A.2. Principal and Supporting Studies (Oral RfD)
E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company. 1984a. MRID No. 00151359. Available from EPA. Write to FOI, EPA, Washington, DC 20460.
Savey (NA-73) was administered at dietary levels of 0, 100, 500, and 5000 ppm (0, 2.5, 12.5, and 125 mg/kg/day) to 4 beagle dogs/sex/group for 1 year. The following parameters were evaluated: mortality, physical signs, body weight, food consumption, opthalmology, hematological and clinical chemistry changes, and microscopic pathological changes. All animals survived the study. No treatment related clinical, othalmological, hematology, urinalysis or gross pathological findings were reported. Body weight gain was reduced at the high dose levels. Alkaline phosphatase was reduced in high-dose males and females. The NOEL for savey in beagle dogs was 100 ppm (2.5 mg/kg/day) based on adrenal cortex hypertrophy in both sexes at 500 and 5000 ppm (12.5 and 125 mg/kg/day). Adrenal weight was increased in both sexes of the high-dose dogs. Significant relative liver weight increase and liver hypertrophy were reported in the high-dose males.
__I.A.3. Uncertainty and Modifying Factors (Oral RfD)
UF — An uncertainty factor of 100 was used to account for the inter- and intraspecies differences.
MF — None
__I.A.4. Additional Studies/Comments (Oral RfD)
Data Considered for Establishing the RfD:
1) 1-Year Feeding - dog: Principal study - see previous description; core grade minimum
2) 2-Year Feeding (oncogenic) - rat: Systemic NOEL=430 ppm (23 to 29 mg/kg/day); Systemic LEL=3000 ppm (160-200 mg/kg/day) (based upon actual consumption) (increased liver weight); core grade minimum (E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co., 1985a)
3) 2-Generation Reproduction - rat: Maternal NOEL=400 ppm (35 mg/kg/day); Maternal LEL=2400 ppm (200 mg/kg/day) (decrease in body weight gain, food consumption, food efficiency; also increase in liver, kidney, and ovarian weights); Pup NOEL=400 ppm (35 mg/kg/day); Pup LEL=2400 ppm (200 mg/kg/day) (reduced body weight during lactation, slight delay in hair growth and/or eye opening); Reproductive NOEL=2400 (200 mg/kg/day) (HDT); Reproductive LEL=none; core grade minimum (E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co., 1985b)
4) Teratology - rat: Maternal NOEL=240 mg/kg/day; Maternal LEL=720 mg/kg/day (reduced feed consumption and weight gain, increased ovarian weights); Fetotoxic NOEL=240 mg/kg/day; Fetotoxic LEL=720 mg/kg/day (delayed ossification, minor); Teratogenic NOEL=2160 mg/kg/day (HDT; no embryotoxicity at HDT); Teratogenic LEL=none; core grade minimum (E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co., 1983)
5) Teratology - rabbit: Maternal and Developmental NOEL=1080 mg/kg/day (HDT); Maternal and Developmental LEL=none; core grade guideline (E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co., 1984b)
Other Data Reviewed:
1) Chronic Feeding (oncogenic) - mice: Systemic NOEL=250 ppm (37.5 mg/kg/day); Systemic LEL=1500 ppm (225 mg/kg/day) (decreased male body weight); core grade guideline (E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Co., 1985c)
2) 90-Day Feeding - rat: NOEL=70 ppm (8.1 mg/kg/day for males, 5.4 mg/kg/day for females); LEL=500 ppm (25 mg/kg/day) (increased liver weights in both sexes; increased relative ovary and female kidney weights at 500 and 3500 ppm; decrease in plasma CHE of females at 500 and 3500 ppm; increased blood total protein and albumin levels at 500 ppm after 2-months of feeding; fatty degeneration of the zona fasciculta of the adrenal cortex of both sexes at 500 and 3500 ppm); core grade minimum (Nisson Soda Co., LDT., 1983)
Data Gap(s): None
__I.A.5. Confidence in the Oral RfD
Study — Medium
Database — High
RfD — High
The critical study is of adequate quality and is given a medium confidence rating. Additional studies are supportive and of good quality; therefore, the database is given a high confidence rating. High confidence in the RfD follows.
__I.A.6. EPA Documentation and Review of the Oral RfD
Source Document — This assessment is not presented in any existing U.S. EPA document.
Other EPA Documentation — Pesticide Registration Files
Agency Work Group Review — 02/25/1988
Verification Date — 02/25/1988
Screening-Level Literature Review Findings — A screening-level review conducted by an EPA contractor of the more recent toxicology literature pertinent to the RfD for Savey conducted in September 2002 did not identify any critical new studies. IRIS users who know of important new studies may provide that information to the IRIS Hotline at hotline.iris@epa.gov or (202)566-1676.
