Key result
Duration:
96 h
Dose descriptor:
LC50
Effect conc.:
> 1 042 mg/L
Nominal / measured:
meas. (arithm. mean)
Conc. based on:
test mat.
Basis for effect:
behaviour
Remarks on result:
other: No remarks
Details on results:
A LC50 (96h) of > 1042 mg/L was derived from the available prolonged toxicity study in fish over 14 days (result: LC50 (21d) > 1042 mg/L).
No mortality was recorded for this prolonged toxicity study in 10 fishes (species: zebra danio) per dose level. Behaviour and development of length and body weight was comparable to those of the controls.
Results with reference substance (positive control):
NA
Reported statistics and error estimates:
NA
Sublethal observations / clinical signs:

No mortality was recorded for this prolonged toxicity study in 10 fishes (species: zebra danio) per dose level. Behaviour and development of length and body weight was comparable to those of the controls.

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
A LC50 (96h) of > 1042 mg/L was concluded from the results of the available prolonged toxicity study in fish. Thus, the LC50(96h) is higher than the concentration of the limit test (100 mg/L).
Executive summary:

A LC50(96h) of > 1042 mg/L was concluded from the results of the available prolonged toxicity study in fish ( species: zebra danio) over 14 days. Thus, the LC50(96h) is higher than the concentration of the limit test (100 mg/L). No further testing (in respect of classification and labelling etc.) is required.

Description of key information
