- Dose descriptor:

- Effect level:
- 1.18 mg/L air (analytical)
- Based on:

- Mortality:
- 0.23 mg/l: 1/5 (male), 0/5 (female)
0.83 mg/l: 1/5 (male), 1/5 (female)
1.78 mg/l: 3/5 (male), 4/5 (female)
5.06 mg/l: 5/5 (male), 5/5 (female) - Clinical signs:
- other: 0.23 mg/l: male: panting, irregular respiration, coat bristling, uncoordinated gait, nasal discharge (blood coloured) were observed at the day of exposure and day 2. Sneezing was observed from day 2 to 4. From day 5 no abnormalities were observed. female:
- Body weight:
- Slightly reduced body weight gain was observed in the week after dosing with a dose-response relationship (see table 1).
- Gross pathology:
- Animals that died showed some abnormalities of the lung (except in the high dose group): red coloured lungs, emission of foam on dissection (males), plethoric (males), patchy dark red
Animals that survived until the end of the study showed no abnormalities. - Other findings:
- Irregular respiration was observed immediately after start of exposure at any concentration tested. Nasal discharge (blood coloured) was observed in all dose groups, but the onset was concentration dependent starting 3 h after start of exposure in the low concentration group and after 30 min in the 1.78 mg/l group. In the high dose group no nasal discharge was observed, which was based on the fact that the animals of the 5.06 mg/l group died within 0.5 and 2.5 h. The effects observed indicate that the substance induces respiratory irritation including cytotoxic effects. These effects are concentration dependent and were observed before mortality occurred. Based on the clinical signs and the pathology findings in the lung it can be assumed that the local effects are accountable for the mortality.
- Interpretation of results:
- Category 4 based on GHS criteria
- Conclusions:
- In an acute inhalation toxicity study conducted according to OECD 403 and in compliance with GLP, a LD50 of 1.1 and 1.18 mg/l (aerosol) was observed in male and female Wistar rats. The MMAD was 0.9-1.4 µm with a GSD of 1.6-2.2 µm with 97% of the particles having a diameter smaller than 5 µm. Mortality was observed in all exposure groups. 1/5 males was found dead in the 0.23 mg/l group. 1/5 males and females, each died in the 0.82 mg/l group. 3/5 males and 4/5 females animals were found dead in the 1.78 mg/l exposure group. In the high dose group all animals died. Clinical signs as panting, irregular respiration, coat bristling, uncoordinated gait, nasal discharge (blood coloured) were observed in all dose groups, mainly at the day of exposure and the day thereafter. Slightly reduced body weight gain was observed in the week after dosing with a dose-response relationship. Animals that died showed some abnormalities of the lung (red coloured lungs, emission of foam on dissection (males), plethoric (males), patchy dark red). Animals that survived until the end of the study showed no abnormalities.

Additional information
A key study is available with N-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine (CAS 5089-72-5), which was conducted according to OECD 401 and in compliance with GLP (RCC, 1995a). Groups of 5 male and 5 femlae animals per group were treated with 1000, 1500, and 2000 mg test substance per kg bodyweight. No mortality was observed after treatment with 1000 mg/kg bw. After treatment with 1500 mg/kg bw 0/5 males and 2/5 females were found dead. Treatment with 2000 mg/kg bw led to 1/5 death males and females, each. Mortalities occurred on day 1 or 2, respectively. No clinical signs were observed at 1000 mg/kg bw. At 1500 and 2000 mg/kg bw sedation, spasms, dyspnea, ruffled fur, and diarrhea (reversible within 1 or 2 days for females and males, respectively) were observed. No effect of treatment on body weight was observed. Necropsy revealed no organ abnormalities in any dose group. In conclusion a LD50 >2000 mg/kg bw was derived.
Acute toxicity: inhalation
For the inhalation route a study according to OECD 403 (in compliance with GLP) was conducted with N-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine (Hoechst, 1992). Five male and female Wistar rats per group were exposed to aerosol concentrations of 0.23, 0.83, 1.78, 5.06 mg/l (analytical) N-[3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine for 4 h (nose only). The MMAD was 0.9-1.4 µm with a GSD of 1.6-2.2 µm with 97% of the particles having a diameter smaller than 5 µm. Mortality was observed in all exposure groups. 1/5 males was found dead in the 0.23 mg/l group. 1/5 males and females, each died in the 0.82 mg/l group. 3/5 males and 4/5 females animals were found dead in the 1.78 mg/l exposure group. In the high dose group all animals died. Clinical signs as panting, irregular respiration, coat bristling, uncoordinated gait, nasal discharge (blood coloured) were observed in all dose groups, mainly at the day of exposure and the day thereafter. Sneezing was also observed throughout the dose groups and occurred over a longer period of time (up to 15 days). In addition, at higher doses signs as gasping, crackling rales, squatting posture, trembling, decreased spontaneous activity were observed. Slightly reduced body weight gain was observed in the week after dosing with a dose-response relationship. Animals that died showed some abnormalities of the lung (red coloured lungs, emission of foam on dissection (males), plethoric (males), patchy dark red). In the high dose group these effects were not observed, probably due to the fact that the animals died within 1 and 4 h of the exposure period. Animals that survived until the end of the study showed no abnormalities. Based on the mortalities observed a LC50 of 1.1 and 1.18 mg/l was derived for male and female animals, respectively.
Acute toxicity: dermal
According to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex VIII, Column 2, 8.5.3, an acute dermal toxicity study is required only if inhalation of the substance is unlikely and skin contact in production and/or use is likely and the physicochemical and toxicological properties suggest potential for a significant rate of absorption through the skin. As an inhalation study is available, a low toxicity was observed in an acute oral study and the physico-chemical properties suggest a low dermal absorption, there is no need to perform an acute dermal toxicity study, also accounting for animal welfare.
Justification for classification or non-classification
For the inhalation route, it is not considered appropriate to classify for acute toxicity as the observed effects are due to exposure to aerosol droplets rather than to systemic availability of the test substance.
The available data on acute 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.
No data on acute dermal toxicity are available.
