Description of key information

Calculation with ECOSAR v1.00 (EPIWIN software by US-EPA): EC50(48h): 2220 g/L

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The prediction for short-term toxicity for aquatic organisms of the test substance was determined by the computer program ECOSAR v1.00 (EPIWIN software) by US-EPA (Chemservice S.A., 2011). The program uses an extensive set of structure-activity relationships (SARs) to estimate the toxicity of chemicals discharged to water. For daphnids an EC50(48h) of 2220 g/L was predicted. No GLP criteria are applicable for the usage of this tool, but due to the fact that it is a scientifically accepted calculation method the estimations performed are reliable with restrictions and can be used for the chemical safety assessment.
