No DART studies were discovered in the published literature regarding these soy-derived ingredients, and no unpublished data were submitted. However, a study analyzing the reproductive effects of orally ingested soybean was found and included below. The potential reproductive toxicity of the soybean was tested in 20 male and 60 female rats.46 The rats were treated with processed soybean meal at 0, 100, 200 and 300 mg/kg bw for 65 days. The test substance was administrated via diet. No statistically significant effect of soybean meal on the weight of the testes and epididymis was observed. Sperm viability and sperm count were significantly reduced in a dose-dependent manner. In addition, sperm head abnormality was significantly increased in a dose-dependent manner. Rats in the control group displayed seminiferous tubules at various stages of development. Rats in the 100 mg/kg bw group had testicular tissues with compacted interstitial spaces, mild hemorrhaging along the Sertoli’s cells, and slight degeneration of the spermatids. Rats treated with 200 mg/kg bw displayed similar effects, and rats treated with 300 mg/kg bw displayed adverse effects such as testicular tissues with inflammation of interstitial cells, severe hemorrhaging along the Sertoli’s cells, and excessive degeneration of spermatids, and necrosis. The conception rate of female rats sired by males in the treated groups was reduced in a dose-dependent manner when compared to controls. No other effects regarding treated female rats were observed
