Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

Indigo was not toxic in aquatic studies at the limit of solubility, hence it is not possible to derive PNECs for water. All effects seen in studies which were conducted with co-solvents lie above the limit of water solubility. Even though these studies were disregarded due to deficits in study conduct and/or deficient information in the reports, as a worst case assessment the 1/100th of the water solubility as reported in the OECD SIDS document was used for comparison with predicted environmental concentrations.

Conclusion on classification

No classification due to the environmental effects is necessary
