Classification according to CLP

According to the available data for the aquatic hazard of N-Acetyl-DL-tryptophan (CAS 87-32-1) compiled above, no short-term toxicity to aquatic organisms of all three trophic levels (fish, aquatic invertebrates and algae) was recorded and the respective acute effect concentrations are all clearly above 1 mg/L. Furthermore, the substance is readily biodegradable and has a low potential for bioaccumulation. Data for long-term toxicity is available only for algae and no chronic effects were recorded (ErC10 > 100 mg/L). Therefore, the substance is not classified and labelled for environmental hazards, according to the consolidated version of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 (dated: 01.01.2017) and further amendments (ATPs).
