Description of key information

Toxicity to microorganisms: EC50 of 67 mg/l; EC10 25 mg/l (Pseudomonas putida, growth rate).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

There are no microorganism toxicity data available for N-[3-(dimethoxymethylsilyl) -2-methylpropyl]ethylenediamine (CAS 23410-40-4), therefore good quality data for the analogue substance, N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl) ethylenediamine (CAS 1760-24-3) have been read across. Both substances share the comparable silanol hydrolysis products, N-[3-(dihydroxymethylsilyl)-2-methylpropyl]ethylenediamine and N-[3 (hydroxydimethylsilyl)propyl]ethylenediamine. It is therefore considered valid to read-across the results for N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl) ethylenediamine to fill the data gap for the registered substance. The other hydrolysis product being methanol, which does not have adverse effects on microorganisms (OECD, 2004a).

Both substances are within a wider analogue group than the analogue group discussed in Section 1.4. Substances within this wider analogue group, in general, exhibit no evidence of significant toxicity to microorganisms.

This wider analogue group for the toxicity to microorganisms endpoint consists of a number of sub-classes of substances. However, read-across is carried out between substances with the same sub-class in most cases.

Table 7.1.6 presents microorganism toxicity data available for substances within the sub-class (III-8) of substances having amino group(s) in side chain after any very rapid hydrolysis has been accounted for.Both N-[3-(dimethoxymethylsilyl) -2-methylpropyl]ethylenediamine (CAS 23410-40-4) and N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl) ethylenediamine (CAS 1760-24-3) are members of this sub-class.

Additional information is given in a supporting report (PFA, 2013l) attached in Section 13 of the IUCLID dossier.

The influence of the test item N-(3-(trimethoxysilyl) propyl) ethylenediamine (CAS 1760-24-3) were determined for toxicity to Pseudomonas putida (growth rate) in a reliable study conducted according to DIN 38412/8 and GLP (Hüls AG, 1994c). The nominal test concentrations were 15.6, 31.3, 50, 62.5, 125, 250 mg/l. A 16 hr EC50 value of 67 mg/l and EC10 value of 25 mg/l was determined in a static test type.
