Executive summary:

In a terrestrial ecotoxicity reproduction test with collembolans Folsomia candida according to ISO 11267, the EC50 values for Sandy, Silty & Loamy soils are 22 (13.5–105), 11 and 66 mg/kg respectively.

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In a supporting study for this endpoint (Hund-Rinke & Simon 2005), a terrestrial ecotoxicity reproduction test with collembolans Folsomia candida was conducted according to ISO 11267.

In a terrestrial ecotoxicity reproduction test with collembolans Folsomia candida according to ISO 11267, the EC50 values for Sandy, Silty & Loamy soils are 22 (13.5–105), 11 and 66 mg/kg respectively.

A reliability rating of 2 was assigned to this study, according to the criteria of Klimisch, 1997.
