effect on the results of the test. These larger fish were preferred for this particular study in view of the strong circulation currents generated by the shielded propeller stirrers necessary to maintain the test dispersion. - Test type:

- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- A 96-hour LC50 value of 130 mg/L and a NOEC of 100 mg/L have been determined for the effects of the test substance on mortality of Salmo gairdneri (new name: Oncorhynchus mykiss). The test substance hydrolyses rapidly in water and it is therefore likely that the test organisms were primarily exposed to the hydrolysis products of the substance.

- Details on sampling:
- - Concentrations: silanol form was measured in all test levels at the start and the end of the exposure. Methanol was measured for the 100 mg/L level (with pH adjustment) and methanol control at the start of the exposure. As the test item hydrolyzes in water and forms silanol and methanol, these both components were measured in the test solutions instead of the test item itself.
- Sampling method: 10 mL of the test solution was taken out from the middle layer of the test vessel. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: the test item was added in dilution water while stirring with a magnetic stirrer in Erlenmeyer flask to produce each nominal concentration as silanol form [N,N-bis (3-trihydroxysilylpropyl) amine]. Solutions were stirred with a magnetic stirrer for approx. 2 h. Suspension was filtered with a glass fiber filter and filtrate was re-aerated. In addition the same test solutions for all nominal concentrations were prepared with a final adjustment of the pH to the pH of the dilution water (using HCl).
- Controls: methanol control was made at the same level (75 mg/L) as the theoretical methanol concentration contained in 100 mg/L test solution (theoretical methanol concentration = concentration of silanol form * 32.04 (methanol molecular weight) * 6/257.40 (silanol form molecular weight)). - Test organisms (species):

LC50 (96 h) > 100 mg/L (nominal, OECD 203)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Two studies are available testing the short-term toxicity of the substance towards fish.
The key study was conducted according to the OECD Guideline 203 and GLP (2013). The test organism Oryzias latipes was exposed in a static test regime to 0 (control), 35, 46, 59, 77 and 100 mg test item/L. The test was run in two parallels, one with and one without adjustment of pH in order to examine pH effects on fish mortality. The test item was analytically monitored by LC-MS and GC % analysis. Due to rapid hydrolysis of the substance, the silanol hydrolysis product was analytically monitored and measured at test start and end. The recovery of the hydrolysis product was in all cases >80%. The study resulted in an LC50 (96 h) of 57 mg/L (nominal) when the pH was not adjusted and an LC50 (96 h) of > 100 mg/L when the pH was adjusted.
The supporting study was also conducted according to the OECD guideline 203 and GLP (1989). The tested organism Oncorhynchus mykiss was exposed to nominal test item concentrations of 100, 180, 320, 560 and 1000 mg/L for 96 h. A semi-static testing regime was chosen. No analytical monitoring was performed in this study. The test determined a 96-hour LC50 value of 130 mg/L.
