Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

In a 48 h acute toxicity study, Daphnia magna were exposed to the substance according to OECD guideline Nr. 202 (1984) and in compliance with GLP principles. Daphnids were exposed to the following nominal concentrations: 0 (blank-control), Tween control, 0.32, 0.56, 1.0, 1.8, 3.2, 5.6 and 10 mg/L. The substance did not induce acute immobilization of Daphnia magna at and below 1.8 mg/L after 48 hours of exposure. The 48h-EC50 was determined as 5.35 mg/L (95% confidence interval between 4.53 and 6.98 mg/L) based on nominal concentrations. The present toxicity study is regarded as reliability 2, since nominal test concentrations were not confirmed analytically (true exposure concentrations are not known) and because the stated EC50 values are much exceeding the water solubility of the substance (0.6 mg/L). The physical effects can therefore not be distinguished from systemic effects.
In addition to this a short-term chronic (10 days) static renewal effluent toxicity test according to ASTM E729 with Ceriodaphnia dubia was found in the RIFM database, which was conducted to estimate the LC50 of 25 fragrance materials. For the substance a calculated LC50 of 0.35 mg/L was found.

Additional information

Awaiting the update of the IUCLID of the lead registrant the result is considered to be 5.35 mg/l. This does not influence the the C&L for Aurawood because its C&L is based on fish data.
