Description of key information

The lethal concentration for 50 percent mortality (LC 50, 48 hr) value of benzyl propionate in the aquatic invertebrate Daphnia magna was reported as 20 mg/L but the BCF value of benzyl propionate reported were not >= 500 and neither was the Log Kow value greater than or equal to 4.. Thus considering the conditions mentioned in the CLP regulation for classification; benzyl propionate could be assumed to be non toxic to the aquatic invertebrate Daphnia magna.
