Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
This report contains a QSAR prediction for the substance Quinoli-9-ol (CAS number: 148-24-3). The targeted susbtance was predicted to have an EC50 (mortality) of 65.2 mg/l. The large amount of experimental data on analogues assures a good reliability of the prediction and therefore it is considered to fulfil the minimun acceptance criteria.
Executive summary:

Based on the prediction done using the OECD QSAR toolbox version 4.1 with log kow as the primary descriptor and considering the five closest read across substances, the short term toxicity on fish was predicted for Quinolin-8 -ol

(CAS no 148 -24 -3). EC50 value was estimated to be 65 mg/L on the basis of intoxication for Pimephales promelas for 96 hrs duration. Hence, Quinolin-8 -ol was considered being low hazardous to aquatic vertebrates at environmentally relevant concentrations. Testing on fish was considered unneccesary since alternatives to animal testing showed a good reliability.

Description of key information

Testing on the aquatic vertebrates was considered not necessary as alternatives to testing were available and they demonstrated to be sufficient to fulfil the legal requirements related to Annex VIII, Section 9.1.3 of REACH. Therefore, the general rules for adaptation 1.2 and 1,3 of Annex XI of REACH regulation are met and applied. Furthermore, the substance is classified as Aquatic Acute 1 and Aquatic Chronic 1 (Harmonised classification according to Annex VI of CLP). The results obtained from the three QSAR models (QSAR Toolbox, VEGA and ECOSAR) were in the EC50 range: 45 -65,2 mg/l. The EC50 of 58.44 mg/l has been chosen as key for the CSA (average of the three QSAR predictions).
