Conclusion on classification

Short-term toxicity tests for algae, Daphnia are available for the substance. The LC50 value for fish is calculated by ECOSAR to be 1.21 mg/L and the EC50 for Daphnia is 2.8 mg/l, whereas the ErC50 for algae is 7.5 mg/L. Based on the lowest available acute data for fish with an LC50 value of 1.21 mg/L, the substance does not need to be classified for acute aquatic toxicity according to Table 4.1.0 (a) of CLP.

As one chronic value is available for algae, the chronic C&L needs to be derived on both chronic and acute toxicity data and the most stringent outcome needs to be taken into consideration.

The only chronic value (NOErC) is derived in the algae study (2.1 mg/L). In combination with the substance not being rapidly degradable this would not lead to classification according to Table 4.1.0 (b) (i) of CLP. However, in view of the acute results and the Log Kow = 4.4, the substance needs to be classified for long-term aquatic toxicity according to Figure 4.1.1 and Table 4.1.0, (b) iii of CLP, resulting in Aquatic Chronic Category 2 and H411 classification.

 

Overall, it can be concluded that ethyllinalyl acetate needs to be classified as Aquatic Chronic 2 (H411) in accordance with the criteria outlined in Annex I of the CLP Regulation (1272/2008/EC).
