Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The toxicity of a sample of GTL Base Oil Distillates has been determined in a test with the unicellular algaDesmodesmus subspicatus. The tests were conducted in accordance with OECD Test Guideline 201.
Desmodesmus subspicatuswere exposed to water accommodated fractions (WAFs) of the test material over a single nominal loading rates of 100 mg/l for a period of 72 hours. The WAFs were prepared by stirring for 23 hour and left to stand for 1 hour before drawing off the aqueous phase – the WAF – for testing. Static exposures were then carried. The study was carried out according to GLP and analytical monitoring, TOC analysis, also took place.
The test results, expressed as the EL50and NOELR values, showed that the sample was not toxic to algae at a loading rate of 100 mg/l.
Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis of the freshly prepared test preparations showed amount of carbon present within the 100 mg/l loading rate WAF test vessels to be less than the limit of quantitation (LOQ) for the method (1.0 mg C/l) in fresh and old test media samples.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
