Description of key information
Experimental results from algal growth inhibition studies for the monosodium salt of cyanuric acid, monohydrate freshwater algae and one study with marine algae using sodium cyanurate.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 2 700 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 1 250 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for marine water algae:
- 100 mg/L
Additional information
Freshwater algae:
1. Experimental results obtained with the substance monosodium salt of cyanuric acid, monohydrate (72h-EbC50= 2700 mg/L, basis for effect: biomass; 96h-EbC50 > 5000 mg/L, basis for effect: biomass; 72h- ErC50 > 5000 mg/L, basis for effect: growth rate; 96h- ErC50 > 5000 mg/L, basis for effect: growth rate; 72h- NOEC = 1250 mg/L, basis for effect: growth rate; 96h- NOEC = 5000 mg/L, basis for effect: growth rate ).
Read-across: 2. Based on the experimental results obtained with the analogue cyanuric acid (96 h-EC50=712 mg/L, basis for effect: in vivo chlorophyll; and 96 h-EC50=655 mg/L,. basis for effect: cell number) and the molecular weights, the read-across approach is applied and the 96 h-EC50 for substance sodium cyanurate is calculated to be 839 mg/L (basis for effect: in vivo chlorofill) and 772 mg/L (basis for effect: cell number) (for Selenastrum capricornutum (new name: Pseudokirchnerella subcapitata)).
Marine algae:
1. Experimental results obtained with the substance monosodium salt of cyanuric acid (72h-EC50 > 100 mg/L and 72h-NOEC = 100 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).
