Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The influence of Diethoxy Amine (CAS 61381-04-2) on the growth of the freshwater green algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was assessed in a static dose-response test. The 72-hour EyC50 was calculated to be 16.7 mg test item/L, and the 72-hour ErC50 value was calculated to be 29.8 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOEyC was determined to be ≤0.300 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOEyC was <0.300 mg test item/L. The 72-hour NOErC was determined to be 0.3 mg test item/L and the associated 72-hour LOErC was 0.9 mg test item/L.
