Additional information

As key study regarding acute toxicity to fish a static non-GLP test according to German Industrial Standard DIN 38412 part 15 using Leuciscus idus was identified (BASF 1981). After 96 hours of exposure a LC50 of ca. 460 mg/L was estimated, related to the nominal concentration and for a non-neutralized sample whereas for a neutralized sample a LC50 > 681 mg/L was found.

No analytical verification was performed during the study. However, it is assumed that the test concentrations remained stable over the exposure period based on a sufficient water solubility, a low Henry's Law constant and a low adsorption potential (log Kow and log Koc < 3).
