Description of key information

The toxicity to aquatic microorganisms is determined by read-across to the structural analogue substance Direct Black 168 Na salt (CAS 93281 -13 -1). The source and the target substance have the same structure in respect to the anionic constituents.

One test conducted according to OECD Guideline 209 on the structural analogue substance resulted on one IC50 >100 mg/L value.

Based on the IC value obtained and considering the existing information, the substance is not harmful to microorganisms, and the same results applicable to the target substance.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for microorganisms:
101 mg/L
