Ureidopropyltrialkoxysilane, mixed methoxy and ethoxy esters has been tested according to OECD 474 and under GLP conditions. No significant increase in the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes was observed in the bone marrow of male or female rats 24 or 48 hours after a single oral dose of up to and including 2000 mg/kg bw. A reduction in the PCE/total erythrocyte ratio was only observed in the 48 hour positive control group. It is concluded that the test substance is negative for the induction of micronuclei under the conditions of the study.

Additional information
Two in-vitro and one in vivo study are available for assessment of the genetic toxicity of ureidopropyltrialkoxysilane, mixed methoxy and ethoxy esters.
In vitro:
Ureidopropyltrialkoxysilane, mixed methoxy and ethoxy esters has been tested for mutagenicity to bacteria, in a study which was conducted according to OECD 471, and in compliance with GLP. S. typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, and TA 1537 and E. coli WP2 uvrA were treated with the test substance up to the limit dose of 5000 µg/plate. No evidence of a test substance related increase in the number of revertants was observed with or without metabolic activation in the initial or repeat experiments. No cytotoxicity was observed. Appropriate solvent and positive controls were included and gave expected results. It is concluded that the test substance is negative for mutagenicity to bacteria under the conditions of the test (NOTOX, 1999f).
In a second in vitro test, performed according to OECD TG 473 and in compliance with GLP, the test substance was investigated on its ability to induce chromosome aberrations (NOTOX, 2000d). Cultured peripheral human lymphocytes were treated for 3 hours (main test) with 100, 180, 333, 420, 560 µg/ml (without S9 -mix) and 333, 560, 1000, 1300, 1800 µg/ml (with S9 -mix) and were fixed after 24 h. A genotoxic effect was observed for the test substance tested in a 3 h treatment in two independent experiments without and with metabolic activation. Appropriate solvent and positive controls were included and showed expected results. The test substance is genotoxic under the test conditions applied.
In vivo:
For assessment of genetic toxicity in vivo a micronucleus test with Wistar rats according to OECD TG 474 and in compliance with GLP is available (NOTOX, 2001). Five male and female animals were treated once per gavage with 500, 1000, 2000 mg/kg bw test substance. After 24 or 48 h (high dose group only) the animals were killed and the bone marrow was prepared for investigation of erythrocytes. No significant increase in the incidence of micronucleated polychromatic erythrocytes was observed in the bone marrow of male or female rats 24 or 48 hours after a single oral dose of up to and including 2000 mg/kg bw. A reduction in the PCE/total erythrocyte ratio was only observed in the 48 hour positive control group. It is concluded that the test substance is negative for the induction of micronuclei under the conditions of the study. Although no bioavailability of the test substance was proven, the study was evaluated as valid, because it was tested up to the limit concentration of 2000 mg/kg bw.
In conclusion, the test substance should not be classified in the category "genetic toxicity", as there is no indication for mutagenicity from an Ames test, and no chromosome aberration was observed in the in vivo micronucleus test (according to ECHA, guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, chapter R.7a, May 2012).
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available in vitro and in vivo data on mutagenicity of the test substance, ureidopropyltrialkoxysilane, mixed methoxy and ethoxy esters is not classified for germ cell mutagenicity according to Regulation (EC) 1272/2008 or Directive 67/548/EEC.
