Repeated dose toxicity: dermal
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- short-term repeated dose toxicity: dermal
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- disregarded due to major methodological deficiencies
- Reliability:
- 3 (not reliable)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: see remark
- Remarks:
- There were positive skin reactions observed with the vehicle control, light paraffin oil. The mild to moderate microscopic skin lesions found for animals treated with the vehicle alone suggests that the vehicle and/or test procedure contributed to the skin irritation observed in the Silane-treated animals. Hence, no clear resulton both the local and the systemic, repeated dose toxicity hazard could be obtained from this study.

- Food consumption, body weight, and organ weight data were intercompared for the dose and control groups by use of Levene's test for homogeneity of variances, by analysis of variance, and by pooled variance t-tests. The t-tests were used, if the analysis of variance was significant, to delineate which groups differed from the control group. If Levene's test indicated heterogeneous variances, the groups were compared by an analysis of variance for unequal variances followed, if necessary, by separate variance t-tests. Medians and quartile deviations were calculated for non-parametric data. These data were statistically analysed by the Kruskal-Wallis test and, if necessary, by the Wilcoxon rank sum test as modified by Mann-Whitney. Frequency data were compared using Fisher's exact tests where appropriate. All statistical tests, except the frequency comparisons were performed using BMDP Statistical Software (Dixon, 1985). The frequency data tests are described in Biometry (Sokal, R. R. and Rohlf, F. J., W. 8. Freeman and Company: San Francisco, 1969). The fiducial limit of 0.05 was used as the critical level of significance for all tests.

- CLINICAL SIGNS AND MORTALITY
No animals died during the study.
Treatment-related clinical signs of toxicity were restricted to the site of application of test material or vehicle. Erythema and oedema were observed in some animals from most groups including controls. These lesions tended to occur earlier and were more severe in the high and mid dose groups. Erythema was observed for all males in the high dose group with maximum severity scores of well defined (2 males) and moderately severe (3 males). Erythema was also observed for all animals in the mid dose group with maximum severity scores of barely perceptible (4 males) and moderately severe (1 male). Erythema, scored as barely perceptible or well defined, was observed for 2 males in the control group and 1 male in the low dose group. Oedema was observed for all males in the high dose group with maximum severity scores of well defined (1 male) and moderate (4 males). Oedema, scored principally as well defined, was observed for 1 male from each of the control and mid dose groups. Oedema was not observed for males in the low dose group. Findings of erythema and/or oedema occurred principally during the 3rd or 4th week of dosing for the 2 males in the control group, from days 5-13 for the male in the low dose group, and in all weeks of dosing for males in the mid and high dose treatment groups.
Erythema was scored principally as well defined for females in the high dose group and barely perceptible for females in the control, low dose, and mid dose groups. All females in the high dose group had erythema starting in the first week of dosing. The incidence of erythema for the control (1 animal), low dose (1 animal), and mid dose (3 animals) groups observed near the end of the first week of dosing increased to 4 or 5 females per group at the end of the last week of dosing. Oedema (barely perceptible to moderate severity) was observed for all females in the high dose group after the first week of dosing. Oedema, scored principally as barely perceptible, was observed for 2 females from the mid dose group after the first week of dosing and 2 additional females each from this group and the low dose group at the end of the dosing period. Oedema (barely perceptible and/or well defined) was observed for 3 females in the control group during the 3rd or 4th weeks of the study.
Other treatment-related clinical signs of toxicity (in addition to erythema and oedema) were limited to the skin at the application site and included exfoliation, ecchymosis, excoriation, encrustation, ulceration, and fissuring for both males and females. Lesions were observed predominantly in the mid and high dose groups with more animals in the high dose groups affected than in the other groups. Exfoliation and ecchymosis were observed in approximately equal incidence for all groups of females including controls. The incidence of all lesions in males and all other lesions in females appeared to show a dose response. Pustule and abscess were observed for 1 low dose female. No other treatment-related clinical signs of toxicity were observed in this study.
BODY WEIGHT AND WEIGHT GAIN
Statistically significant alterations in absolute body weights and body weight gain were not observed in male or female rabbits administered 8.4, 16.8, or 84.0 mg/kg bw/day of the test material. However, decreased mean body weight gain compared to controls or mean body weight losses were observed for males in the mid dose and high dose groups during the study. Mean body weight loss was observed for males in the mid dose group during the first week of the study and for males in the high dose group during the first and second weeks of the study compared to a mean body weight gain of 78.5 g and 166.2 g for controls for the first and second week of treatment, respectively. Mean body weight gains during the remainder of the study for the mid and high dose groups compared to controls were decreased: 38% to 57% (mid dose males) and 86% to 89% (high dose males).
Mean body weight losses were observed throughout the study for females in the control and high dose groups. The maximum loss for both groups occurred during the first week of the study with mean losses of 89.3 g for controls and 204.4 g for the high dose treatment group. Mean body weight losses during the 4 week exposure period were 49.5 g for controls and 161.0 g for the high dose females.
FOOD CONSUMPTION
Statistically significant alterations in food consumption were not observed in male or female rabbits administered 8.4, 16.8, or 84.0 mg/kg bw/day of the test material. However, mean food consumptions were decreased compared to the control group for males in the high dose treatment group (15% to 28%) during the 4 weeks of exposure and for males in the mid dose treatment group (4% to 18%) during days 1-15. Additionally, mean food consumption was decreased for females from the high dose treatment group compared to the control group (4% to 17%) during the days 1-22.
HAEMATOLOGY
There were no statistically significant differences between the values for any of the haematoligic parameters in treated rabbits compared with those of the control rabbits, nor were there any biologically important trends.
CLINICAL CHEMISTRY
The only statistically significant change in serum chemistry parameters was observed in 8.4 and 84 mg/kg bw/ dosed male rabbits where SDH values were lower than in control rabbits. This coupled with somewhat lower values, albeit not statistically significant, for both AST and ALT in the high dose male rabbits suggests a possible effect on synthesis of liver enzymes. However, no such trend was observed either in the high dose female rabbits, or a dose relationship in the lower dose male rabbits. Therefore, this alteration is not likely to be biologically important. Liver necrosis would result in increased rather than decreased liver enzyme values.
URINALYSIS
No biologically or statistically significant changes were observed in the urine parameters for either male or female rabbits.
ORGAN WEIGHTS
Statistically significant alterations in organ weights were not observed for male or female rabbits administered 8.4, 16.8, or 84.0 mg/kg bw/day of the test item. However, a dose-related decrease in mean absolute liver weight compared to the control group was observed for males in the mid dose (-16%) and high dose (-21%) treatment groups. Dose-related decreases in mean liver weights expressed relative to body weight or brain weight were also observed for males in the mid dose (-9% and -12%, respectively) and high dose (-14% and -15%, respectively) groups. An apparent dose-related decrease in mean liver weight was also observed for males in the low dose group. However, this decrease was a result of an exceptionally small liver in one animal (approximately 50% of control mean) and was not considered to be related to treatment based on the lack of effect on body weight, supporting clinical chemistry findings or gross or microscopic findings in the liver, and the lack of similar effects on liver weight for the four remaining males in this group (mean liver weight for the remaining animals = 2% greater than control mean).
GROSS PATHOLOGY AND HISTOPATHOLOGY
Treatment-related gross and microscopic lesions were observed only in the treated skin of both males and females. Gross lesions were observed on the treated and untreated skin of animals from all groups. Treatment-related gross skin lesions were limited to the treatment area. Gross lesions observed included exfoliation, erythema, surface crust, haemorrhage, and/or fissuring. The severity and/or incidence for several of the gross lesions tended to be greater in the treated groups than in control groups. Microscopic lesions indicative of both chronic and acute inflammation were observed in all treatment groups (including controls). Acanthosis, ulceration, folliculitis, and dermatitis for males, and oedema, congestion, haemorrhage, and hyperkeratosis for both males and females occurred in approximately equal frequency for control and treated animals. A dose-related increase in the incidence of ulceration was observed for females in the mid dose (3 animals) and high dose (4 animals) groups and the incidence of folliculitis for females was greatest in the mid and high dose groups (3 animals each). The severity of epidermitis and ulceration for males and acanthosis, epidermitis, ulceration, dermatitis, and dermal fibrosis for females increased in a dose-related manner. The range of severity for these lesions was mild to moderate for the control and low dose animals and mild to marked for the mid and high dose animals. Microscopic lesions were also observed in untreated skin of rabbits from all dosage groups. These lesions were less frequent and generally less severe than those observed at the application site.

Any other information on results incl. tables
Mild to moderate skin irritation was seen at the lowest dosage level, 8.4 mg/kg bw/day. Mild to marked irritation was noted at dosage levels of 16.8 mg/kg/day and above. Since some effects were observed with the silane-free solvent control animals, the irritation seen in the test groups may in part have been caused by the solvent.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- A dermal repeated dose toxicity conducted according to the OECD TG 410 and in compliance with GLP with bis(trimethoxysilylpropyl)amine (CAS 82985-35-1) is available, although the results were disregarded as there were positive skin reactions observed with the vehicle control, light paraffin oil. The mild to moderate microscopic skin lesions found for animals treated with the vehicle alone suggests that the vehicle and/or test procedure contributed to the skin irritation observed in the Silane-treated animals. Bis(trimethoxysilylpropyl)amine (CAS 82985-35-1) was tested on both male and female New Zealand White rabbits to determine specific target organ toxicity after repeated skin contact. Solutions of differing concentrations of the test item (0.5, 1, and 5%, referring to 8.4, 16.8, and 84.0 mg/kg bw) in a light paraffin oil were applied to the clipped dorsal trunk skin under an impervious covering for 6 hours/day, 5 days/week for 4 weeks. No mortality occurred throughout the study period. Decreased body weight gain and decreased food consumption were observed in both treated males and females as compared to the controls, but the effects were not statistically significant. A treatment related decrease in absolute and relative liver weights was observed in mid and high dose males as compared to the controls. However, the effects were not statistically significant. Mild to moderate skin irritation was seen at the lowest dosage level, 8.4 mg/kg/day, whereas mild to marked irritation was noted at dosage levels of 16.8 mg/kg/day and above. Treatment-related gross and microscopic lesions were observed only in the treated skin of both males and females of all treatment and control groups, with higher severity and/or incidence of severity tending to the treatment groups. The predominant finding was hyperkeratosis. However, degenerative effects to the skin were not observed. Since some findings were also observed with the solvent control animals, the irritation seen in the test groups may in part have been caused by the solvent. Among this, light paraffin oil is known to be irritating to the skin (Nessel et al. (1999) Toxicological Sciences 49:48-55). The study provided evidence for cumulative irritation from repeated skin contact with the test item, but there was no evidence of systemic toxicity. The other effects observed in this study (decreases in food consumption, body weight gain, and liver weight for males in the mid and high dose groups) were not indicative of a consistent systemic effect of the test material and may have been partially related to debility resulting from skin irritation. Therefore, no clear result on both the local and the systemic repeated dose toxicity hazard could be obtained from this study..
