Irritant / corrosive response data:
Corneal injury (grade 1) was observed in one rabbit at six hours, persisting through to 24 hours. Iritis (grade 1) was present at one hour in three of six animals. Conjunctival injury (redness and chemosis: grades 1 and 2) was observed in all six animals and persisted to 24 hours in one animal. There were no signs of irritation by 48 hours.
Other effects:
No other effects included in the study summary.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
GHS criteria not met
Conclusions:
In an eye irritation study, not conducted to GLP (reliability score 2), 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propiononitrile was slightly irritating (minor corneal injury, iritis, and conjunctival redness and chemosis) to the eyes of rabbits.
