Endpoint summary
Administrative data
Description of key information
In the key acute oral study, conducted according to OECD Test Guideline 401 and in compliance with GLP (Hüls, 1993a), the LD50 (rat) value was concluded to be > 2000 mg/kg bw (limit test). Clinical signs observed after dosing were abnormal gait, squatting, staggering, salivation and lacrimation, hypothermia, and uncontrolled movements. These had fully resolved by the 24-hour observation. No abnormalities were detected at necropsy.
No acute inhalation data are available which meet current guideline requirements. However, supporting studies in which rats were exposed to substantially saturated vapour for 6-8 hours showed no mortality, indicating a low potential for acute inhalation toxicity.
In the key acute dermal study, conducted according to OECD Test Guideline 402 and in compliance with GLP (Hüls, 1993b), the LD50 (rat) value was concluded to be > 2000 mg/kg bw (limit test). There were no clinical signs or necropsy findings.

Additional information
In the key acute oral study with (3-chloropropyl)trimethoxysilane, conducted according to the now-deleted OECD Test Guideline 401 (limit test) and in compliance with GLP (Hüls, 1993a), the concluded LD50 (rat) value was >2000 mg/kg bw. In the study, a group of ten (5 male and 5 female) rats was given a single oral dose of undiluted test substance at a dose level of 2000 mg/kg bw. The animals were observed at 1 and 4 hours after dosing and then once a day for 14 days. Bodyweights were recorded on the day of treatment and on days 7 and 14. All animals were subject to gross necropsy examination for any macroscopic abnormalities.
No mortality occurred during the study period. Up to six hours after administration clinical signs of toxicity were noted which included abnormal gait, squatting, staggering, salivation and lacrimation, hypothermia, and uncontrolled movements. All animals appeared normal by the 24-hour observation point. The expected body weight gain was observed during the study period. No macroscopic abnormalities were observed at necropsy.
Three older studies support this conclusion, although much higher dose levels were tested than required by current guidelines (BRRC 1990; Carnegie-Mellon 1974; Dow Corning Corporation, 1982).
In the key acute dermal toxicity study, conducted according to OECD Test Guideline 402 and in compliance with GLP (Hüls, 1993b), the LD50 (rat) value was concluded to be > 2000 mg/kg bw (limit test). In the study, 2000 mg/kg bw of undiluted (3-chloropropyl)trimethoxysilane were applied topically onto the skin of 5 male and 5 female rats for 24 hours under semi-occlusive dressing. The animals were observed at 30 minutes, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours post-application and daily for 14 days thereafter. The animals were weighed on study days 0, 7 and 14. All the animals were subject to necropsy at the end of the 14-day observation period.
No mortality occurred during the study period. During the study period, there was no evidence of systemic toxicity noted during the study period and expected body weight gain was observed during the study period. No macroscopic abnormalities were observed at necropsy.
The findings of the key study are supporting by another two older studies (BRRC 1990; Carnegie-Mellon 1974).
No reliable acute inhalation data are available.
Justification for classification or non-classification
Based on the available information, (3-chloropropyl)trimethoxysilane is not classified for acute toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008.
