Conclusion on classification

The 96-hour LC50 for fish, the 48-hour EC50 for crustacea, and the 72-hour ErC50 for algae and other aquatic plants are <1 mg/L. The chronic NOECs for fish and crustacea are <0.1 mg/L. Additionally, the substance is considered not rapidly degradable and does not meet the criteria for a potential to bioaccumulate. Based on all the available data, the test substance is classified as Acute Cat 1 (H400: Very toxic to aquatic life) and Chronic Cat 1 (H410: Very toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects) according to EU Classification, Labelling and Packaging of Substances and Mixtures (CLP) Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008.

 

In accordance with article 10 of the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, if an M-factor is not yet given in Part 3 of Annex VI to the CLP Regulation, an M-factor should be determined and a scientific justification provided, when classifying substances for Acute Category 1 or Chronic Category 1. For this substance, adequate acute aquatic data are available in fish, aquatic invertebrates, and algae. An Acute M-Factor is based on the lowest reported effects in the most sensitive species, diatom. Therefore, the M factor is 100 based on the 96 h EC/LC50 of 0.0063 mg/L in diatoms.

 

In accordance with article 10 of the CLP Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008, if an M-factor is not yet given in Part 3 of Annex VI to the CLP Regulation, an M-factor should be determined and a scientific justification provided, when classifying substances for Acute Category 1 or Chronic Category 1. Chronic data were available in fish, invertebrates, and algae. The lowest reported effects in chronic data were the 21 d NOEC data of 0.008 mg/L in aquatic invertebrate. The test substance is Not biodegradable . Therefore, the M factor is 10.
