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.

Description of key information

A test with the homolgue substance 7PPD caused a statistically significant reduction in the nitrate formation in soil at concentrations of 333 mg/kg soil dry weight and above.
At test-item concentrations of 10.0 mg/kg soil dw and 100 mg/kg soil dw nitrate concentration in soil was statistically significantly increased.
The LOEC and NOEC were determined to be 333 mg/kg soil dw and 100 mg/kg soil dw, respectively. Due to the lacking of a dose-response relationship effective concentrations (ECx) could not be calculated.
Based on the above results, the test item, 7PPD is considered to have no adverse long-term effects on nitrate formation in soil at concentrations up to and including 100 mg test item/kg soil dry weight.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Long-term EC10 or NOEC for soil microorganisms:
100 mg/kg soil dw

Additional information

According to the OECD Guideline 216 (Soil Microorganisms: Nitrogen Transformation Test), he study was conducted in order to determine possible effects of 7PPD on soil microorganisms through measuring microbial nitrate formation in treated versus untreated soils after 28 days of incubation. A NOEC of 100 mg/L and a LOEC of 333 mg/L within 28 days related to nitrate formation.

7PPD is considered to have no adverse long-term effects on nitrate formation in soil at concentrations up to and including 100 mg test item/kg soil dry weight.
