- Conclusions:
- A reliable study conducted very largely in compliance with a standard guideline and probably in accordance with GLP, identified LD50 values of 1492 and 2689 mg/kg bw in female and male rats, respectively. However, based on the fact that the hydrolysis product is formed in aqueous solutions of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine where the concentration range of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine is > 0.1 - < 16% (w/w), the available acute oral toxicity study represents a worst case assumption. With respect to mixture rules, the LD50 value for hydrolysis products of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine (15%) is 9946 mg/kg bw for females and 17927 mg/kg bw for males. Thus, there is no need for classification.

Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:
- no adverse effect observed
- Dose descriptor:
- LD50
- Value:
- 9 946 mg/kg bw
- Quality of whole database:
- The available information comprises an adequate and reliable study (Klimisch score 2) from a reference substance with similar structure and intrinsic properties. Read-across is justified as 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine hydrolyses rapidly in water resulting in the target substance (refer to endpoint discussion for further details). The selected study is thus sufficient to fulfil the standard information requirements set out in Annex VII, 8.5, in accordance with Annex XI, 1.5, of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.
Acute toxicity: via inhalation route
Endpoint conclusion
- Endpoint conclusion:

Additional information
There are no data available on acute toxicity of “hydrolysis products of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine” (EC No. 939-125-9). In order to fulfil the standard information requirements set out in Annex VII, 8.5., read-across from a structurally related substance is conducted in accordance with Annex XI, 1.5, of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.
The read-across is based on the hypothesis that the analogue substance, 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine, hydrolyses rapidly in water resulting in the target substance. It can be expected that both the target and the source substance have similar behaviour under aqueous conditions. The target substance consists of 3-aminopropylsilanetriol and ethanol which are formed directly after hydrolysis and several condensation products such as dimers, trimers as well as polymers of siloxanes having similar functional groups (-O-Si- or HO-Si-). Therefore, it is considered that the target and the source substance are in one class of compounds and structural differences are not supposed to contribute to significant differences in activity with respect to eco- and human toxicological endpoints. A detailed analogue approach justification is provided in the technical dossier (Please refer to IUCLID Section 13 for further information).
3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine was administered by gavage at dose levels of 1, 2 and 4 mL/kg bw (corresponding to 950, 1900 and 3800 mg/kg bw) to 5 male rats/group and 1, 1.41 and 2 mL/kg bw (corresponding to 950, 1340 and 1900 mg/kg bw) to 5 female rats/group. The mortality was 0, 1 and 4 for the males and 0, 1 and 5 for the females, respectively, listed by increasing dose. In the rats that died, bright to dark red lungs and dark red grandular stomachs were noted. The intestines (in some case also the stomachs) were filled with light brown to yellow liquids. Examination of the kidneys and urinary bladders revealed tubular necrosis in those that died and some evidence of lesser kidney damage in those that survived. Signs of toxicity included sluggishness, lacrimation, kyphosis, an unkempt appearance, piloerection, staining on the fur, closed eyelids, emaciation and diarrhea. Survivors recovered at 2 to 9 days.
There were no remarkable gross pathologic findings for the survivors. The LD50 was calculated to be 1492 mg/kg bw for females and 2689 mg/kg bw for males.Based on the fact that the hydrolysis product is formed in aqueous solutions of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine where the concentration range of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine is > 0.1 - < 16% (w/w), the available acute oral toxicity study represents a worst case assumption. With respect to mixture rules, the LD50 value for hydrolysis products of 3-(triethoxysilyl)propan-1-amine (15%) is 9946 mg/kg bw for females and 17927 mg/kg bw for males.
Thus, there is no need for classification.Justification for selection of acute toxicity – oral endpoint
Hazard assessment is conducted by means of read-across from a structural analogue. The selected study is the most adequate and reliable study based on the identified similarities in structure and intrinsic properties between source and target substance and overall quality assessment (refer to the endpoint discussion for further details).
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – inhalation endpoint
No study required since exposure of humans via inhalation is unlikely taking into account the physico-chemical properties of the substances and the lack of exposure to aerosols under normal conditions of use.
Justification for selection of acute toxicity – dermal endpoint
Testing by the dermal route does not need to be conducted as the substance does not meet the criteria for classification as acutely toxic by the oral route and no systemic effects have been observed in in-vivo studies with dermal exposure (skin irritation, skin sensitisation). This is in accordance with the "Draft Commission Regulation amending Annexes VII and VIII to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) as regards skin corrosion/irritation, serious eye damage/eye irritation, skin sensitisation and acute toxicity".
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available data on acute oral toxicity of the test substance do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
