- ACTIVATION
The S9 liver microsomal fraction was prepared at Eurofins Munich. Male Wistar rats were induced with phenobarbital (80 mg/kg bw) and ß-naphthoflavone (100 mg/kg bw) for three consecutive days by oral route. The preparation was performed according to Ames et al..
The following quality control determinations were performed:
a) Biological activity in the Salmonella typhimurium assay using 2-aminoanthracene
b) Sterility Test
A stock of the supernatant containing the microsomes was frozen in aliquots of 2 and 4 mL and stored at +/- -75 °C.
The protein concentration in the S9 preparation (Lot: 020218) was 39.5 mg/mL.
An appropriate quantity of the S9 supernatant was thawed and mixed with S9 cofactor solution to result in a final protein concentration of 0.75 mg/ml in the cultures. The final percentage of S9 mix in cell culture medium was 5% (v/v).
Cofactors were added to the S9 mix to reach the concentrations below:
8 mM MgCl2
33 mM KCl
5 mM Glucose-6-phosphate
5 mM NADP
in 100 mM sodium-phosphate-buffer pH 7.4. During the experiment the S9 mix was stored on ice.
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in medium;
DURATION
- Preincubation period: not applicable
- Exposure duration: Experiment 1: 4 hours, experiment 2: 24 hours
- Fixation time (start of exposure up to fixation or harvest of cells): 24 hours
SPINDLE INHIBITOR (cytogenetic assays): least 2 h before harvesting, colcemid was added to the cultures (final concentration 0.2 µg/mLl)
STAIN (for cytogenetic assays): Giesma
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Duplicate cultures at each concentration, exposure without metabolic activation was repeated with 24-hour exposure time.
METHODS OF SLIDE PREPARATION AND STAINING TECHNIQUE USED: The cultures were harvested by centrifugation 24 h after beginning of treatment. The supernatant was discarded and the cells were resuspended in approximately 5 mL hypotonic solution (0.4% KCl). The cell suspension was incubated at room temperature for 20 min. After removal of the hypotonic solution by centrifugation the cells were fixed with 3+1 methanol + glacial acetic acid. The fixation procedure was repeated twice. Slides were prepared by dropping the cell suspension onto a clean microscopic slide. The cells were stained with giemsa and according to the Fluorescent plus Giemsa technique, respectively. The slides were coverslipped using 2-3 drops of Eukitt(R). Afterwards they were air dried.
NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: 300 cells were evaluated for cytogenicity where available except where a clear positive response was observed in the positive control.

- Acceptability criteria:
- the number of aberrations found in the negative and/or solvent controls falls within the range of historical laboratory control data / is considered acceptable for addition to the laboratory historical negative control database.

- the proliferation criteria in the solvent control should be similar to the corresponding negative control (where applicable)
- All three experimental conditions were tested unless one resulted in positive results
- Adequate number of cells and concentrations are analysable
Providing that all acceptability criteria are fulfilled, a test chemical is considered to be clearly positive if, in any of the experimental conditions examined:
a) at least one of the test concentrations exhibits a statistically significant increase compared with the concurrent negative control,
b) the increase is dose-related when evaluated with an appropriate trend test,
c) any of the results are outside the 95% control limits of the historical negative control data.
Providing that all acceptability criteria are fulfilled, a test chemical is considered clearly negative if, in all experimental conditions examined
a) none of the test concentrations exhibits a statistically significant increase compared with the concurrent negative control,
b) there is no concentration-related increase when evaluated with an appropriate trend test,
c) all results are inside the 95% control limits of the historical negative control data. - Statistics:
- Statistical significance at the 5% level (p < 0.05) was evaluated by the Fischer´s exact test. The p value was used as a limit in judging for significance levels in comparison with the corresponding solvent control. Only aberrant cells without gaps were used for the calculation.

RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
A range-finding study for cytotoxicity was carried out.
HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA (with ranges, means and standard deviation and confidence interval (e.g. 95%)
- Positive historical control data: without metabolic activation: 6.3-54.7 aberrant cells, excluding gaps; with metabolic activation: 8.0-37.3 aberrant cells, excluding gaps.
- Negative (solvent/vehicle) historical control data: 4 hour treatment: 0.26% - 3.84% aberrant cells without metabolic activation (4 and 24 hour treatment); -0.21% - 3.94 % aberrant cells with metabolic activation. 24 hour treatment: -0.33% - 3.60% aberrant cells without metabolic activation
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON CYTOTOXICITY:
- Measurement of cytotoxicity used: mitotic index. Cell cycle delay was evaluated by
- Other observations when applicable: the number of cells available for analysis was less than 300 in the solvent control and at the highest concentration evaluated in experiment I, and at the two highest concentrations without metabolic activation in experiment II. - Conclusions:
- Tris[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione has been tested in a valid in vitro chromosome aberration assay conducted according to OECD TG 473 and in compliance with GLP using peripheral human lymphocytes. No increase in the percentage of cells with chromosome aberrations was observed when cells were exposed for four hours to the test substance up to the limit concentration with metabolic actvation or to cytotoxic concentrations without metabolic activation. After continuous exposure for 24 hours without metabolic activation, a biologically-relevant increase of the aberration rates was noted after treatment at cytotoxic concentrations. These increases were statistically significant and concentration-dependent, however, they may be artefacts as they were observed in the higher end of the cytotoxicity range. Fewer than 300 cells per concentration were available for evaluation, so it was not possible to count additional cells to verify the result. It is concluded that the test substance is equivocal for the induction of chromosome aberration under the conditions of the test.

- Preincubation period: No
- Exposure duration: 4 hours
- Expression time (cells in growth medium): 2 days

NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED:
- Cloning efficiency: 1.6 cells/well in two 96 well plates.
- Mutant frequency 2000 cells/well in four 96 well plates
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: mitotic index; relative total growth.
- Any supplementary information relevant to cytotoxicity: The relative total growth (RTG) is the product of the relative suspension growth (RSG; calculated by comparing the SG of the dose groups with the SG of the control) and the relative cloning efficiency (RCE) for each culture: RTG = RSG x RCE /100
- OTHER: colony sizing was performed for the highest concentrations of the test item and for the negative and positive controls. - Rationale for test conditions:
- Based on guideline
- Evaluation criteria:
- - The induced mutant frequency meets or exceeds the Global Evaluation factor (GEF) of 126 mutants per 106 cells and
- a dose-dependent increase in mutant frequency is detected.
Besides, combined with a positive effect in the mutant frequency, an increased occurrence of small colonies (=40% of total colonies) is an indication for potential clastogenic effects and/or chromosomal aberrations.
According to the OECD guideline, the biological relevance is considered first for the interpretation of results. Statistical methods might be used as an aid in evaluation of the test result.
A test item is considered to be negative if the induced mutant frequency is below the GEF and the trend of the test is negative. - Statistics:
- Statistical significance at the 5% level (p < 0.05) was evaluated by means of the non-parametric Mann-Whitney test.

No biologically relevant increase in the number of mutants was found after treatment with the test item at limit concentration with metabolic activation or cytotoxic concentration without metabolic activation. The Global Evaluation Factor was not exceeded by the induced mutant frequency at any concentration. Appropriate negative (growth medium), solvent (tetrahydrofuran) and positive controls were included and gave expected results. It is concluded that the test substance is not mutagenic to mammalian cells under the conditions of the test.

- ACTIVATION
The S9 liver microsomal fraction was prepared at Eurofins Munich. Male Wistar rats were induced with phenobarbital (80 mg/kg bw) and ß-naphthoflavone (100 mg/kg bw) for three consecutive days by oral route. The preparation was performed according to Ames et al..
The following quality control determinations were performed:
a) Biological activity in the Salmonella typhimurium assay using 2-aminoanthracene and benzo[a]pyrene
b) Sterility Test
A stock of the supernatant containing the microsomes was frozen in aliquots of 2 and 4 mL and stored at +/- -75 °C.
The protein concentration in the S9 preparation (Lot: 210918) was 35.7 mg/mL.
An appropriate quantity of the S9 supernatant was thawed and mixed with S9 cofactor solution to result in a final protein concentration of 0.75 mg/ml in the cultures. The final percentage of S9 mix in cell culture medium was 5% (v/v).
Cofactors were added to the S9 mix to reach the concentrations below:
8 mM MgCl2
33 mM KCl
5 mM Glucose-6-phosphate
5 mM NADP
in 100 mM sodium-phosphate-buffer pH 7.4. During the experiment the S9 mix was stored on ice. The final concentration of S9 mix in the cultures was 5%.
METHOD OF APPLICATION: in medium;
DURATION
- Pre-experiment: 4h incubation
- Exposure duration: Experiment 1: 4 hours, Experiment 2: 44 hours
- Actin polymerisation inhibitor exposure: 6 µg/mL cytochalasin B added after treatment and prior to the targeted mitosis for 40 h to 42 h at 37°C and 5% CO2 during Experiment 1; 6 µg/mL cytochalasin B added after treatment and prior to the targeted mitosis for 43 h at 37°C
NUMBER OF REPLICATIONS: Duplicate cultures at each concentration except for the pre-experiment
METHODS OF SLIDE PREPARATION AND STAINING TECHNIQUE USED: At the end of the cultivation, the complete culture medium was removed. Subsequently, the cells were treated with cold hypotonic solution (0.075 M KCl) for 30 minutes at room temperature and immediately centrifuged. The pellet was resuspended with a solution which consisted of fixation solution and NaCl 0.9% (1+1) and was centrifuged. After that the cells were fixed with methanol and glacial acetic acid (3+1). The cells were resuspended gently and the suspension was dropped onto clean glass slides. Consecutively, the cells were dried on a heating plate. The cells were stained with acridine orange solution.
SPINDLE INHIBITOR (cytogenetic assays): cytochalasin B.
STAIN (for cytogenetic assays): acridine orange solution
NUMBER OF CELLS EVALUATED: 2000 binucleated cells per concentration (1000 binucleated cells per slide)
CRITERIA FOR SCORING AND SELECTION OF ANALYSABLE CELLS: Criteria of Fenech i.e. clearly surrounded by a nuclear membrane, having an area of less than one-third of that of the main nucleus, being located within the cytoplasm of the cell and not linked to the main nucleus via nucleoplasmic bridges. Mononucleated and multinucleated cells and cells with more than six micronuclei were not considered
DETERMINATION OF CYTOTOXICITY
- Method: performed by determining cell proliferation in both treated and control cultures. The proliferation rate was determined by calculation of the cytokinesis-block proliferation index (CBPI) which was used to calculat cytostasis.
OTHER EXAMINATIONS:
- Determination of polyploidy: no
- Determination of endoreplication: no - Rationale for test conditions:
- Guideline test conditions
- Evaluation criteria:
- Acceptability of the assay:
A mutation assay is considered acceptable if it meets the following criteria:
- The concurrent negative/solvent control is considered acceptable for addition to the laboratory historical negative/solvent control database.
- Concurrent positive controls should induce responses that are compatible with those generated in the laboratory’s historical positive control data base and produce a statistically significant increase compared with the concurrent negative/solvent control.
- Cell proliferation criteria in the negative/solvent control should be fulfilled.
- All experimental conditions are tested unless one resulted in positive results.
- Adequate number of cells and concentrations are analysable.
Criteria for the selection of top concentration are fulfilled.
Evaluation of results:
A test item is considered to be clearly positive if, in any of the experimental conditions examined:
- at least one of the test concentrations exhibits a statistically significant increase compared with the concurrent negative/solvent control
- the increase is concentration-related in at least one experimental condition when evaluated with an appropriate trend test
- any of the results are outside the distribution of the historical negative/solvent control data (e.g. Poisson-based 95% control limits).
When all of these criteria are met, the test item is considered able to induce chromosome breaks and/or gain or loss in this test system.
A test item is considered to be clearly negative if in all experimental conditions examined none of the criteria mentioned above are met. - Statistics:
- Statistical significance: Statistical significance at the 5% level (p < 0.05) was evaluated by the non-parametric ¿² test. The p value was used as a limit in judging for significance levels in comparison with the concurrent solvent control.
Trend test: Statistical significance at the 5% level (p < 0.05) was evaluated by the ¿² test. The p value was used as a limit in judging for significance levels - Key result

- Other confounding effects: none recorded
RANGE-FINDING/SCREENING STUDIES:
A pre-experiment was conducted under identical conditions as described for the main experiment I (4 h incubation) in order to determine the toxicity of the test item. The CBPI was used to calculate cytostasis for the quantification of cytotoxicity. The following concentrations were tested without and with S9 mix:
7.8, 15.6, 31.3, 62.5, 125, 250, 500, 1000, 1500, 2000 µg/mL. The concentration of 2000 mg/mL was considered to be the highest test concentration to be used in this test system following the recommendation of the corresponding OECD testing guideline 487. Cytostasis was between 0 and 24%, so 2000 µg/mL was used as the top concentration in the main experiment.
HISTORICAL CONTROL DATA (with ranges, means and standard deviation and confidence interval (e.g. 95%)
- Positive historical control data: for MMS without metabolic activation : 0.46% - 6.19% micronucleated cells; for Colchicine without metabolic activation : 0.00-8.12%; for CPA with metabolic activation: 1.18-4.28%
- Negative historical control data: without metabolic activation : 0.29% - 1.16% micronucleated cells ; with metabolic activation : 0.28-1.26%
- Solvent historical control data: without metabolic activation : 0.06% - 1.58% micronucleated cells ; with metabolic activation : 0.19-1.38% - Conclusions:
- 2,4,6-tris[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl) isocyanurate (CAS 26115-70-8) has been tested in an in vitro mammalian cell micronucleus study conducted according to OECD TG 487 and in compliance with GLP. No induction of structural or numerical chromosomal damage in human lymphocytes was observed. Therefore, the test item is considered to be non-mutagenic with respect to clastogenicity and aneugenicity under the conditions of the test.

b: statistical significant increase compared to solvent controls (Fisher’s exact test, p< 0.05), +: significant; -not significant
The mitotic index was determined in 1000 cells per culture of each test group. The relative values of the mitotic index are related to the solvent controls.
4-hour treatment: 300 cells evaluated for each concentration, except for the positive controls (EMS: 150 cells, CPA: 140 cells) due to a clearly positive increase in chromosomal aberrations. In the experiment without metabolic activation, fewer than 300 cells were evaluated for chromosome aberrations in the solvent control (293 cells) and the concentration 1500 µg/mL (257 cells) as not enough cells were present one the slides.
24-hour treatment: 300 cells evaluated for each concentration, except for the positive control (EMS: 90 cells) due to a clearly positive increase in chromosomal aberrations. Fewer than 300 cells were evaluated for chromosome aberrations for the concentrations 50 µg/ml (250 cells) and 100 µg/ml (291 cells) due to few cells present on the slides.

Additional information
1,3,5 -Tris[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione has been tested in a valid bacterial reverse mutation assay (Microbiological Associates, 1996), conducted according to OECD TG 471, and in compliance with GLP, using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 or E. coli WP2 uvr A. No increase in the number of revertants was observed in any test strain, with or without metabolic activation when tested up to limit concentration. Appropriate positive and solvent controls were added and gave expected results. It is concluded that the test substance is negative for mutagenicity to bacteria under the conditions of the test.
A supporting study was also available (BRRC, 1991), conducted according to OECD TG 471, with acceptable restrictions, and in compliance with GLP, using Salmonella typhimurium strains TA 98, TA 100, TA 1535, TA 1537 or TA 1538. No increase in the number of revertants was observed in any test strain, with or without metabolic activation when tested up to limit concentration. Appropriate positive and solvent controls were added and gave expected results. It is concluded that the test substance is negative for mutagenicity to bacteria under the conditions of the test.
1,3,5 -Tris[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione has been tested in a valid in vitro chromosome aberration assay conducted according to OECD TG 473 and in compliance with GLP using peripheral human lymphocytes (Eurofins, 2018a). No increase in the percentage of cells with chromosome aberrations was observed when cells were exposed for four hours to the test substance up to the limit concentration with metabolic actvation or to cytotoxic concentrations without metabolic activation. After continuous exposure for 24 hours without metabolic activation, a biologically-relevant increase of the aberration rates was noted after treatment at cytotoxic concentrations. These increases were statistically significant and concentration-dependent, however, they may be artefacts as they were observed in the higher end of the cytotoxicity range. Fewer than 300 cells per concentration were available for evaluation, so it was not possible to count additional cells to verify the result. It is concluded that the test substance is equivocal for the induction of chromosome aberration under the conditions of the test.
1,3,5 -Tris[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione has been tested in a valid in vitro mammalian cell gene mutation assay (Eurofins, 2018b), conducted according to OECD TG 490 and in compliance with GLP, using mouse lymphoma L5178Y cells and the microwell method. No biologically relevant increase in the number of mutants was found after treatment with the test item at limit concentration with metabolic activation or cytotoxic concentration without metabolic activation. The Global Evaluation Factor was not exceeded by the induced mutant frequency at any concentration. Appropriate negative (growth medium), solvent (tetrahydrofuran) and positive controls were included and gave expected results. It is concluded that the test substance is not mutagenic to mammalian cells under the conditions of the test.
Due to the equivocal result of the OECD 473 chromosome aberration test, a further in vitro micronucleus test according to OECD TG 487 has been carried out.
1,3,5 -Tris[3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl]-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione has been tested in a valid in vitro micronucleus test conducted according to OECD TG 487 and in compliance with GLP using peripheral human lymphocytes (Eurofins, 2019). No induction of structural or numerical chromosomal damage in human lymphocytes was observed. Therefore, the test item is considered to be non-mutagenic with respect to clastogenicity and aneugenicity under the conditions of the test.
