Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Ecotoxicological information

Long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates

Administrative data

Endpoint:
long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates
Type of information:
migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: The reliability is rated 1 because the study followed a standard guideline, which describes a procedure designed to evaluate this endpoint, the results were reviewed for reliability and assessed as valid, and the study was conducted under GLP.

Data source

Reference Type:
study report
Title:
Unnamed
Year:
1999

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 211 (Daphnia magna Reproduction Test)
GLP compliance:
yes

Test material

Constituent 1
Reference substance name:
light catalytically cracked naphtha
IUPAC Name:
light catalytically cracked naphtha

Sampling and analysis

Analytical monitoring:
yes

Test solutions

Vehicle:
no
Details on test solutions:
Measured concentrations may not represent 100% of components, remaining hydrocarbon
components in WAFs may be equally toxic and should have been quantitated to determine
total measured concentrations.

Test organisms

Test organisms (species):
Daphnia magna

Study design

Test type:
semi-static
Water media type:
freshwater
Limit test:
no
Total exposure duration:
21 d

Test conditions

Nominal and measured concentrations:
The mean measured concentrations for nominal loading rates of 0.38, 0.99, 2.6, 6.4, 16,
and 40 mg/l were 0.007, 0.022, 0.11, 0.27, 0.68, and 3.1 mg/l representing the average of
total analytes measured in the new and old WAFs.
The average total analyte concentration in the controls was 0.004 mg/l.

Basis for effect:

Reported statistics and error estimates:
For NOEL Fisher's Exact Test was used for survival of adult daphnids and Kruskal-
Wallis Test with Dunn's Multiple Comparison was used for reproduction.
For EL50, survival data were analyzed using the Spearman-Karber method and
reproduction data were analyzed by linear interpolation. TOXSTAT program was used to
determine the endpoints.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
Water accommodated fractions of light catalytically cracked naphtha produced a 21 -day
NOELR (No Observed Effect Loading Rate) value of 2.6 mg/L based on reproduction with
Daphnia magna.
Executive summary:

Water accommodated fractions of light catalytically cracked naphtha produced a 21 -day

NOELR (No Observed Effect Loading Rate) value of 2.6 mg/L based on reproduction with

Daphnia magna.
