Reference
Endpoint:
long-term toxicity to fish, other
Remarks:
QSAR
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
Not applicable, calculated value
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: This summary has a reliability of 2 because the results are estimated using a computer model that is appropriate for use with this hydrocarbon substance.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across: supporting information
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The aquatic toxicity was estimated by a QSAR, the Petrotox computer model. This model combines a partitioning model used to calculate the aqueous concentration of hydrocarbon components with the Target Lipid Model used to calculate acute and chronic toxicity of non-polar narcotic chemicals. Petrotox computes toxicity based on the summation of the aqueous-phase concentrations of hydrocarbon block(s) that represent a hydrocarbon substance and membrane-water partition coefficients (KMW) that describe the partitioning of the hydrocarbons between the water and organism.

Results with reference substance (positive control):


The aquatic toxicity was estimated using the Petrotox computer model, which combines a partitioning model used to calculate the aqueous concentration of hydrocarbon components as a function of substance loading with the Target Lipid Model used to calculate acute and chronic toxicity of non-polar narcotic chemicals. Petrotox computes toxicity based on the summation of the aqueous-phase concentrations of hydrocarbon block(s) that represent a hydrocarbon substance and membrane-water partitioning coefficients (KMW) that describe the partitioning of the hydrocarbons between the water and organism. The hydrocarbons, C10 -C12, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics estimated freshwater fish 28-day NOELR (No Observed Effect Loading Rate) value is mg/l based on growth.
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The hydrocarbons, C11-C12, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics, estimated freshwater fish 28-day NOELR (No Observed Effect Loading Rate) value is 0.209 mg/l based on growth.
