Male and female Crl:CD(SD) rats were fed a diet containing the rubber accelerator N,N-dicyclohexyl-2-benzothiazolesulfenamide (DCBS) at 0, 1500, 3000, 6000 or 10,000 p.p.m. (0, 83, 172, 343 or 551 mg/kg bw/day in males and 0, 126, 264, 476 or 707 mg/kg bw/day in females) for a total of 57 days beginning 16 days before mating in males, and a total of 61-65 days from 16 days before mating to day 21 of lactation in females. Body weight gains and food consumption were reduced in males at 6000 p.p.m. and higher and in females at 3000 p.p.m. and higher. The weights of the spleen at 6000 and 10,000 p.p.m. and of the thymus at 10,000 p.p.m. were decreased in females. No changes in estrous cyclicity, copulation index, fertility index, gestation index, delivery index, precoital interval or gestation length were observed at any dose of DCBS. Numbers of implantations at 6000 and 10,000 p.p.m. and pups delivered at 10,000 p.p.m. were reduced. There were no changes in the sex ratio or viability of pups. The body weights of male and female pups were lowered at 6000 p.p.m. and higher. Decreased weight of the spleen in weanlings was also observed in males at 1500 p.p.m. and higher and in females at 3000 p.p.m. and higher. The data indicate that DCBS possesses adverse effects on reproduction and development in rats.
