- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: Test article was weighed directly into tared glass weighing caps which were then directly added into the individual test vessels and left in place for the duration of the study. Test article added to achieve duplicate concentrations of approximately 0, 100, 178, 316, 562 and 1000 ppm. Empty glass weighing caps were added onto the control vessels. Test solutions were briefly stirred to disperse the test article. Fish were added six to six and a half hours after test article added to test medium to allow for hydrolysis.

- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Criteria for mortality in control was met. Dissolved oxygen levels were not maintained but there is adequate discussion of the possible impact of this so the study is not considered to be invalidated.
- Conclusions:
- A 96-h LC50 value of 345 mg/l has been determined for the effects of the test substance (CAS 154518-41-9) on mortality of the Bluegill Sunfish Lepomis macrochirus. A 96-h NOEC was not determined in the test. It is likely that the test organisms were exposed to a mixture of the parent substance and hydrolysis products.

Description of key information
Short-term toxicity to fish: 96 hour EC50 345 mg/l (measured (total Si), arithmetic mean) (OECD Guideline 203). It is not feasible to reinterpret this test result in terms of the silanol hydrolysis products.

- 345 mg/L
Additional information
A 96-h EC50 value of 345 mg/l (measured (based on total silicon), arithmetic mean) have been determined for the effects of reaction products of 3-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyltrimethoxysilane and triacetoxyvinylsilane (CAS 154518-41-9) on mortality of Lepomis macrochirus. No NOEC value was determined in the test. In view of the test media preparation method/exposure regime it is likely that the test organisms were exposed predominantly to the hydrolysis products of the tested substance. It is not feasible to reinterpret this test result in terms of the silanol hydrolysis products.
The constituents of the registration substance hydrolyse rapidly (half-life <12 hours at pH 7 and 25°C) to [3-(2,3-epoxypropoxy)propyl]silanetriol, vinylsilanetriol, acetic acid/acetates and methanol.
