Description of key information
Toxicity to aquatic algae and cyanobacteria: Key study: Read-across from experimental data on the category analogue Potassium Acetate (according to ISO 10253). The EC50 for Sodium Acetate is calculated to be greater than 417.92 mg/L, and NOEC is calculated to be 417.92 mg/L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC10 or NOEC for marine water algae:
- 417.92 mg/L
Additional information
Key study:
Experimental results from the category analogue Potassium Acetate. A Skeletonema costatum acute toxicity test (72 hours) has been performed on the Potassium Acetate based on ISO 10253 “Water Quality Marine Algal Growth Inhibition Test with Skeletonema costatum and Phaeodactum tricornutum”. The 72 hours EC50value for the this substance was found to be >500mg/L. The NOEC value was estimated to 500mg/L.
Based on this experimental data and the molecular weights, the read-across approach is applied and the EC50 for Sodium Acetate is calculated to be greater than 417.92 mg/L, and NOEC is calculated to be 417.92 mg/L.
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.
