Additional information

Key study: Experimental results: Test method was according to OECD 203. The LC 50 was greater than 496.35 mg/L after 96 hours with Brachydanio rerio (basis for effect: mortality).

Supporting information: Experimental results:

The first report was equivalent to OECD 203. The acute toxicity test on rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) under the experimental conditions showed a LC 50 value greater than 500 mg/L after 96 hours.

The second report was according to PARACOM guideline (modified OECD guideline). It was performed on Cyprinodon variegatus and the LC 50 (96 h) was also greater than 500 mg/L.
