Description of key information
The in vitro skin irritation study conducted according to OECD TG 439, and in compliance with GLP, reports the test item to be not irritating to human skin model EPISKIN-SMTM (WIL Research, 2016).
In the in vitro skin corrosion study, conducted according to OECD TG 431, and in compliance with GLP, the mean tissue viability was ≥ 50% after 3 minutes exposure and ≥ 15% after 1 hour exposure to the test item. It was concluded that the test item is not corrosive to skin under the conditions of the EpiDerm Skin Model test (Charles River, 2016).
In the in vivo skin irritation/corrosion study, conducted according to an appropriate OECD TG 404 and in compliance with GLP, Reaction Mass of N-[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3-benzenedimethanamine and {3-[(2,2-dimethoxy-1,2-azasilolidin-1-yl)methyl]phenyl}methanamine was concluded to be not irritating to skin (Eurofins, 2019).
In the key in vitro Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability test, conducted according to an appropriate OECD guideline and in compliance with GLP, the test material was reported to induce an IVIS score greater than 55 and to be irritating to bovine corneas (Charles River, 2017).

The adult human-derived epidermal keratinocytes have been seeded on a dermal substitute consisting of a collagen type I matrix coated with type IV collagen. The keratinocytes were grown for 13 days in culture, resulting in highly differentiated and stratified epidermis model comprising the main basal, supra basal, spinous and granular layers and a functional stratum corneum.
- Preincubation: Tissues were preincubated with Maintenance Medium for 27 hours at 37°C.
- Killed tissues: Living epidermis was transferred into 12 well plates and incubated with 2 ml Milli-Q for 48 ± 1 hours. After incubation, killed epidermis was stored at ≤ -15°C. Killed tissues were thawed by placing them for 1 hour at room temperature in 12 well plates on 2 ml maintenance medium.
- MTT medium: MTT concentrate was diluted in assay medium to result in final concentration of 0.3 mg/ml.

DEMONSTRATION OF TECHNICAL PROFICIENCY: The negative control responses for opacity and permeability were less than the upper limits of the laboratory historical range indicating that the negative control did not induce irritancy on the corneas. The mean in vitro irritancy score of the positive control (Ethanol) was 61 and within two standard deviations of the current historical positive control mean (Appendix 3). It was therefore concluded that the test conditions were adequate and that the test system functioned properly.
ACCEPTANCE OF RESULTS:
- Acceptance criteria met for negative control: Yes, within historical control ranges
- Acceptance criteria met for positive control: Yes, within historical control ranges
- Range of historical values if different from the ones specified in the test guideline: Not different - Interpretation of results:
- Category 1 (irreversible effects on the eye) based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- In the Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability test, conducted according to an appropriate OECD guideline and in compliance with GLP, the test material was reported to induce an IVIS score greater than 55 and to be irritating to bovine corneas.

Additional information
The in vitro skin irritation study, conducted according to OECD TG 439 and in compliance with GLP, reported the test item to be not irritating to human skin model EPISKIN-SMTM (WIL Research, 2016).
Following 15 +/- 5 min application of 25 μL of undiluted test item to human skin model EPISKIN-SMTM, the mean relative tissue viability was >50% (124%.). The test system was incubated for 42 hours at 37°C after removal of the test item. Positive and negative controls were included and gave the expected results. The mean tissue viability for positive and negative controls were 12 and 100% respectively. The test item was concluded to be not irritating to human skin model EPISKIN-SMTM under the conditions of the study.
The in vitro skin corrosion study, conducted according to OECD TG 431 and in compliance with GLP, reported the test item to be not corrosive to EpiDerm Skin Model under the conditions of the test (Charles River, 2016).
Following 3-minute and 1-hour exposures of 50 μL undiluted test item to EpiDerm Skin Model, the mean tissue viability was ≥50% and ≥15% respectively. Duplicate tissue cultures were used for each exposure. For cytotoxicity evaluation with MTT two freeze-killed tissues treated with the test item and two freeze-killed negative control treated tissues were used. After the 3-minute exposure period the treated tissues were washed with phosphate buffered saline to remove residual test item. No washing was done after the 1-hour exposure as the test item became solid. After the exposure period 300 μL of MTT-medium was added and the tissues were incubated for 3 hours at 37°C in air containing 5% CO2. Following incubation, the tissues were washed with PBS and formazan was extracted with 2 mL isopropanol over night at room temperature. The amount of the extracted formazan was determined using spectrometer at 570 nm. The relative mean tissue viability obtained after 3-minute and 1-hour exposures was 69% and 52% respectively. Positive and negative controls were included and gave the expected results. The test item was concluded to be not corrosive.
During a skin sensitisation pre-test some irritation skin reactions were observed in the test animals. Therefore, the registrant performed an in vivo skin irritation study (OECD TG 404) to confirm the presence or absence of irritation potential of the registered substance.
In an in vivo skin irritation/corrosion study, conducted according to an appropriate OECD TG 404 and in compliance with GLP, Reaction Mass of N-[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3-benzenedimethanamine and {3-[(2,2-dimethoxy-1,2-azasilolidin-1-yl)methyl]phenyl}methanamine was concluded to be not irritating to skin (Eurofins, 2019).
Following, application of 0.5 mL of the test material onto intact rabbit skin for 4 hours under a semi-occlusive patch, the erythema and oedema grades were assessed for each of the three test animals. Erythema was observed in all of the animals, which was fully reversible within 9 days following patch removal. No oedema was observed in any of the test animals. Scaling was noted at the test site in all the animals, which was fully reversible for animals no. 2 and no. 3, but was fully reversed in animal no. 1 on day 14 post-application, when the study was terminated. In accordance with Annex I: 3.2.2.8.2 of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, the test item was concluded to be not irritating to skin since scaling persisted to day 14 in only one of the three test animals; scaling was fully reversed in the remaining two animals.
In the key in vitro Bovine Corneal Opacity and Permeability test, conducted according to an appropriate OECD guideline and in compliance with GLP, the test material was reported to induce an IVIS score greater than 55 and to be irritating to bovine corneas (Charles River, 2017).
Following a 10-minute exposure of
triplicate cultures of corneas to 750 µL of undiluted test
material, serious
eye damage through one endpoint (opacity) was induced, resulting in a
mean in vitro irritancy score of 228 after 10 minutes of treatment. The
negative control responses for opacity and permeability were less than
the upper limits of the laboratory historical range indicating that the
negative control did not induce irritancy on the corneas. The mean in
vitro irritancy score of the positive control (ethanol) was 61 and
was within two standard deviations of the current historical positive
control mean. It was therefore concluded that the test conditions were
adequate and that the test system functioned properly.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the in vitro and in vivo data for the submission substance, no classification is required for skin irritation and classification Category 1 "H318: Causes serious eye damage" is required for eye irritation according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.
