Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

The effects of test item on the growth of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was assessed in a study according to the requirements of OECD Guideline 201 under GLP (results in mean measured concentrations):
 
The 0-72h ErC10 for average specific growth rate was estimated to be 14.26 mg/L (95%confidence limits 8.34, 20.18 mg/L).
 
The 0-72 h ErC50 values could not be estimated due to estimates being greater than the highest concentration and are therefore concluded to be > 80.18 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
14.26 mg/L

Additional information

A study was designed to determine the effects of Dodecane-12-lactam, manufacturing of,by-products from, distillation residues on the growth of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, a unicellular freshwater green alga, over a 72 h period. The study was performed to meet the requirements of OECD Guideline 201 under GLP (results in mean measured concentrations):

 

The 0-72h ErC10 for average specific growth rate was estimated to be 14.26 mg/L (95%confidence limits 8.34, 20.18 mg/L).

 

The 0-72 h ErC50 values could not be estimated due to estimates being greater than the highest concentration and are therefore concluded to be >80.18 mg/L.
