DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: Gross appraisal of background growth on the plate, marked or dose-dependent reduction in the mutant count per plate compared to the negative controls and the titer was determined.
Metabolic activation system: It was made from the livers of at least six adult male Sprague-Dawley rats, of approximately 200 to 300 g in weight. For enzyme induction, the animals received a single intraperitoneal injection of Aroclor 1254, dissolved in corn oil, at a dose of 500 mg/kg bw, five days prior to sacrifice. The S9 mix also contained seventy mL of cofactor solution containing the following:
-MgCl2 x 6H2O (162.6 mg)
-KCl (246.0 mg)
-Glucose-6-phophate, disodium salt (179.1 mg)
-NADP, disodium salt (315.0 mg)
-Phosphate buffer (100.0 mg) - Evaluation criteria:
- A reproducible and dose-related increase in mutant counts of at least one strain is considered to be a positive result. For TA 1535, TA 100 and TA 98 this increase should be about twice that of negative controls, whereas TA 1537, at least a threefold increase should be reached. However, these guidelines may be overruled by good scientific judgement.
Acceptance criteria
a) The negative controls had to be within the expected range, as defined by published data and/or the laboratories own historical control data.
b) The positive controls had to show sufficient effects, as defined by the laboratories' experience.
c) Titer determinations had to demonstrate sufficient bacterial density in the suspension.
Onlyl trials which complied with all three of the above criteria were accepted for assessment. Even if the criteria for points b) and c) were not met, a trial was accepted, if it showed mutagenic activity of the test substance. - Species / strain:

- ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY: The salmonella/ microsome plate incorporation test, employing doses of up to 5000 µg per plate, showed the test substance to produce bacterial toxic effects at 40 µg per plate and above. Therefore, 5000 µg per plate could not be used for assessment. The salmonella/ microsome test, using preincubation for 30 minutes at 37 °C and employing doses of up to 1200 µg per tube, showed the test substance to produce bacterial toxic effects at 100 µg per tube and above.
- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results: negative with and without metabolic activation
In a bacterial mutagenicity assay according to OECD 471 and GLP, no indications of mutagenic effects of dichloro(diphenyl)silane was found at assessable doses of up to 1200 µg per plate in any of the Salmonella typhimurium strains used in the plate incorporation assay and in the preincubation assay. - Endpoint:

- Chinese hamster lung fibroblasts (V79)
- Metabolic activation:
- with and without
- Genotoxicity:
- negative
- Cytotoxicity / choice of top concentrations:
- cytotoxicity
- Vehicle controls validity:

- Conclusions:
- Interpretation of results: negative with and without metabolic activation
In conclusion, it can be stated that during the described in vitro chromosomal aberration test and under the experimental conditions reported, the test item did not induce structural chromosomal aberrations in the V79 Chinese hamster cell line.
Therefore, the test item Dichloro(diphenyl)silane is considered to be non-clastogenic in this chromosome aberration test. - Executive summary:
To investigate the potential of the test substance to induce structural chromosome aberrations in Chinese hamster V79 cells, an in vitro chromosome aberration assay was carried out.
The chromosomes were prepared 20 h after start of treatment with the test item. The treatment interval was 4 h with and without metabolic activation in experiment I. In experiment II, the treatment interval was 4 h with and 20 h without metabolic activation. Duplicate cultures were treated at each concentration. 100 metaphases per culture were scored for structural chromosomal aberrations (except for concentration 2.5 mM (experiment II with metabolic activation): 112 for the 1st and 100 for the 2nd culture.)
Due to the nature of the test item it was suspended in cell culture medium (MEM). The solvent was compatible with the survival of the cells and the S9 activity.
The following concentrations were evaluated for the microscopic analysis of chromosomal aberrations:
Experiment I:
without metabolic activation: 0.7, 0.9 and 1.1 mM
with metabolic activation: 0.625, 1.25 and 2.5 mM
Experiment II:
without metabolic activation: 0.30, 0.45 and 0.60 mM
with metabolic activation: 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5 mM
In the experiments without metabolic activation no precipitation of the test item was noted after incubation with the test item at the concentrations evaluated, with metabolic activation precipitation of the test item was noted at a concentration of 2.5 mM in experiment I and 1.5 mM in experiment II.
In experiment I without metabolic activation, toxic effects of the test item were noted at a concentration of 1.1 mM, with metabolic activation at a concentration of 2.5 mM.
In experiment II without metabolic activation, toxic effects of the test item were observed at a concentration of 0.60 mM. With metabolic activation toxic effects of the test item were noted at concentrations of 2.0 mM and higher.
In experiment I and II no biologically relevant increase of the aberration rates was noted after treatment with the test item with and without metabolic activation. The aberration rates of all dose groups treated with the test item were within the historical control data of the negative control.
In both experiments with and without metabolic activation no biologically relevant increase in the frequencies of polyploid cells was found after treatment with the test item as compared to the controls.
EMS (400 and 600 µg/mL) and CPA (0.83 µg/mL) were used as positive controls and induced distinct and biologically relevant increases in cells with structural chromosomal aberrations.
The positive controls induced the appropriate responses.
There was no evidence of test item induced over background.
This study is classified as acceptable. This study satisfies the requirement for Test Guideline OPPTS 870.5375; OECD 473 for in vitro cytogenetic mutagenicity data.

The structural analogue substance trichloro(phenyl)silane (CAS: 98-13-5) was tested in a reliable study according to OECD TG 476 and under GLP. No increase in mutant frequency was observed at any concentration with and without activation (4 hours treatment) and without activation (24 hours treatment). Expected results were obtained with positive and negative controls. It is concluded that trichloro(phenyl)silane and thus dichloro(diphenyl)silane are negative for the induction of mutations in L5178Y cells under the conditions of the test.

*: Bacteriotoxic effect (based on titer determination; studied on two plates for each concentration without S9 mix)
Plate incorporation method:
There was no indication of a bacterial toxic effect of the test substance at 8 µg per plate. The total bacterial counts consistently produced results comparable to the negative controls, or differed only insignificantly (Table 1 and 2). No inhibition of growth was noted as well. None of the four strains concerned showed a dose-related and biologically relevant increase in mutant counts over those of the negative controls. This applied both to the tests with and without S9-mix.
Pre-incubation method:
There was no indication of a bacterial toxic effect of the test substance at doses of up to and including 62.5 µg per tube. The total bacteria counts consistently produced results comparable to the negative controls, or differed only insignificantly (Table 1 and 2). No inhibition of growth was noted as well. One of the four strains concerned revealed an increase in mutant counts to double those of negative controls. Strains TA 1535 were affected without metabolic activation (Table 1). This increase did, however, not correlate with dose and could not be confirmed (Table 3). Therefore, it was considered to be of no relevance.
The positive controls sodium azide, nitrofurantonin, 4-nitro-1,2-phenyl diamine and 2-aminoanthracene increased mutant counts well over those of the negative controls, and thus demonstrated the system’s sensitivity and the activity of the S9 mix.

Additional information
A key bacterial reverse mutation assay similar to OECD TG 471 and GLP is available for dichloro(diphenyl)silane. No evidence for a test-substance related increase in the number of revertants was observed in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, and TA 1537. The strains were treated with doses of up to 1200 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation system. Cytotoxic effects of the test substance were noted starting at 40 µg/plate. Appropriate positive and solvent controls were included and gave expected results. Under the conditions of this study, dichloro(diphenyl)silane was concluded to be non-mutagenic in the Salmonella typhimurium strains tested (Bayer AG, 1994).
An additional key bacterial reverse mutation assay with the registered substance is also available. In that study, there was no evidence for a test-substance related increase in the number of revertants observed in Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 and Escherichia coli WP2 strain. The strains were treated with doses of 0.078 to 1.25 µg/plate with and without metabolic activation system. Doses of test material above 1.25 µg/plate were toxic to the tester strains. Appropriate positive and solvent controls were included and gave expected results (Dow Corning Corporation, 1985). The results of both studies are in agreement and give evidence that the test substance is non-mutagenic in the bacterial reverse mutation assay under the applied test conditions.
The key in vitro cytogenicity study on dichloro(diphenyl)silane was conducted according to OECD TG 473 and to GLP. In the presence and absence of metabolic activation no biologically relevant increase in the frequencies of polyploidy cells was found after treatment with the test item in Chinese Hamster V79 cells as compared to the controls. Appropriate positive and solvent controls were included and gave expected results. The test substance was therefore considered to be non-clastogenic in Chinese Hamster V79 cells (BSL, 2012).
No data on in vitro gene mutation in mammalian cells of dichloro(diphenyl)silane is available. However, an OECD 490 study with the registered substance is on-going, but the results will not be available for this current dossier update. Therefore, as an interim measure, the hazard assessment was performed based on available data from the structural analogue trichloro(phenyl)silane (CAS 98-13-5). In accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 Annex XI, 1.5 “Grouping of substances and read across” and in accordance with the Read across assessment framework (RAAF, ECHA 2017) read across from analogue substances has been applied to support the human health hazard assessment of dichloro(diphenyl)silane (CAS 80-10-4). Further details are provided in the analogue justification attached to the respective target entry.
The key in vitro mammalian cell gene mutation study on the structural analogue substance trichlorophenylsilane (CAS 98-13-5) was conducted according to OECD TG 476 and to GLP. No increase in mutant frequency was observed at any concentration with and without metabolic activation after 4 hours of treatment and without metabolic activation after 24 hours of treatment. Expected results were obtained with positive and negative controls. It was concluded that the structural analogue substance, trichlorophenylsilane is negative for the induction of mutations in L5178Y cells under the conditions of the test (Harlan, 2010).
In vivo testing is not required as no evidence for genetic toxicity was found in the in vitro studies.
Justification for classification or non-classification
The available in vitro data on mutagenicity of the registered substance and the structural analogue substance, trichloro(phenyl)silane (CAS 98-13-5) do not meet the criteria for classification according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008, and are therefore conclusive but not sufficient for classification.
