- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: A 1.0 mg/ml stock solution was prepared by placing 2.450 ml (2.5186g based on a density of 1.028 g/ml) of aminosilane in a 3.8-litre glass jar and diluting with 2500 ml of dilution water containing 0.250 ml dimethylformamide (DMF, CAS # 68-12-2). The solution was stirred for approximately 5 minutes with a magnetic stir bar and stir plate. Each test concentration was prepared by adding the appropriate amount of the 1.0 mg/ml stock solution to an intermediate vessel and diluting to 1000 ml with dilution water. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- - Source, supplier, any pretreatment, breeding method: Springborn Smithers culture facility. Daphnids were cultured in 1.0-L glass vessels containing 0.80 L of water.
- Culture medium: Water used to culture the daphnids was be prepared in the same manner and has the same characteristics as the dilution
water.
- Feeding: Daphnids were fed a unicellular green algae, Ankistrodesmus falcatus (4 x 107 cells/mL) and YCT (yeast, cereal leaves and flaked fish food) suspension, daily, at a rate of 1 mL algae and 0.5 mL YCT solution per vessel per day.
- Test organisms: Daphnids were obtained by removing all immature daphnids from the culture vessel, thus isolating mature gravid daphnids #24 hours prior to initiating the test. Young produced by these organisms were subsequently pipetted into the test beakers.
- Age of test organisms at study initiation: < 24 hours - Test type:
- static
- Water media type:
- freshwater
- Limit test:

- Hardness:
- The dilution water had a total hardness and alkalinity as CaCO3 of 170 mg/l and 120 mg/l, respectively
- Test temperature:
- 20 to 21 °C
- pH:
- pH measured in the dilution water and solvent control vessels was 8.0 and 7.9 respectively, at test initiation and 7.9 and 8.0 respectively, at test termination.
- Dissolved oxygen:
- The dilution water and solvent control vessels had a measured DO concentration of 8.9 and 8.7 mg/l respectively, at test initiation and 8.2 and 8.3 mg/l respectively, at test termination.

- Replication: Four replicate test vessels were established for each treatment level and a dilution water and solvent control. Twenty daphnids were
impartially selected and distributed to each concentration and the controls (five daphnids per replicate vessel).
- Aeration: No aeration was provided to the test vessels.
- Dilution water source: Fortifying well water based on the formula for hard water (U.S. EPA, 1975).
- Dilution water chemistry (hardness, alkalinity, pH, TOC, TSS, salinity, Ca/Mg ratio, Na/K ratio): The dilution water had a total hardness and alkalinity as CaCO3 of 170 mg/l and 120 mg/l, respectively, a pH of 7.8 and a specific conductivity of 500 μmhos/cm. The TOC concentration of the dilution water source was 0.60 mg/l for the month of January 2002.
- Lighting (quality, intensity, and periodicity): The test area was illuminated with Sylvania Octron® fluorescent bulbs at an intensity range of 70 to 90 footcandles at the solutions' surface. The test area received a regulated photoperiod of 16 hours of light and 8 hours of darkness. Sudden transitions from light to dark and vice versa were avoided. Light intensity was measured once during the test.

Description of key information
EC50 (48-h): 81 mg/l mobility Daphnia magna, (Hüls AG, 1995)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Measured data was not available for N-[3-(dimethoxymethylsilyl)-2-methylpropyl]ethylenediamine (CAS 023410-40-4), therefore read across from the comparable substance, N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl)ethylenediamine (CAS 1760-24-3) was deemed acceptable for assessment.
A 48-hour EC50 value of 81 mg/l and NOEC of 35 mg/l have been determined for the effects of the test substance on mobility of Daphnia magna. The results are expressed relative to nominal concentrations of the test substance. However the substance is subject to rapid hydrolysis and under the test conditions it is therefore likely that exposure will have been to its hydrolysis products (methanol and N-(3-(trihydroxysilyl)propyl)ethylenediamine). This result has been selected as the lowest EC50value for effects on mobility from two reliable studies. The other EC50 value was 90 mg/l and the corresponding NOEC was <63 mg/l.
Another study determined an EC50 value of 37 ppm and a NOEC of <10 ppm.
