Description of key information
In a valid OECD 201 GLP study on Isodecyl methacrylate, the 72h-NOEC-values for inhibition of specific growth rate of freshwater algae (Desmodesmus subspicatus) after 72 h was 12.0μg/L. The according 72h-EC50-value after 72 h was > 16.9 μg/L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 16.9 µg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 12 µg/L
Additional information
In a fully valid GLP study according to OECD 201, Isodecyl methacrylate was found to inhibit the growth of the freshwater green alga Desmodesmus subspicatus after 72 h.
The NOEC-values for inhibition of specific growth rate and inhibition of yield after 72 h were 12.0 and 9.20 μg/L, respectively. The LOEC-values for inhibition of specific growth rate and inhibition of yield after 72 h were 16.9 and 12.0 μg/L, respectively. The EC50-values for inhibition of specific growth rate (ErC50) and yield (EyC50) after 72 h were > 16.9 and 14.1 (12.6 – 16.1) μg/L, respectively. All effect levels are given based on geometric mean measured concentrations.
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.
