Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

The acute toxicity to aquatic invertebrates of the test substance was assessed according to OECD Test Guideline 202.  The 48 hour EC50 was 12 mg/L with 95 % confidence limits of 11 - 13 mg/L.  The NOEC was 2.0 mg/L and the LOEC was 7.0 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The acute toxicity to aquatic invertebrates of the test substance was assessed according to OECD Test Guideline 202. 

Following a preliminary range-finding test, twenty daphnids (4 replicates of 5 animals) were exposed to an aqueous solution of the test item at nominal concentrations of 1.0, 3.2, 10, 32 and 100% v/v saturated solution for 48 hours at a temperature of 20 °C to 23 °C under static test conditions.

Analysis of the test preparations at 0 hours showed measured test concentrations to range from 0.67 to 40 mg/L. There was no significant change in the measured concentrations at 48 hours and so the results are based on 0-Hour measured test concentrations only.

Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item gave the following results based on the 0-Hour measured test concentrations:

The 48 h EC50 was 12 mg/L with 95 % confidence limits of 11 - 13 mg/L. The NOEC was 2 mg/L and the LOEC was 7 mg/L.
