Description of key information
EC50 (48 h) 380 mg/L for Daphnia magna (EU Method C.2)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Two experimental studies are available investigating the short-term toxicity of triacetin (CAS 102-76-1) to aquatic invertebrates.
The key study was performed according to EU Method C.2 (GLP) with the freshwater invertebrate Daphnia magna (Scholz, 1995). Test substance concentrations up to 1000 mg/L (nominal) were tested in a static exposure regime. After 48 h an EC50 of 380 mg/L was calculated indicating low toxicity of triacetin to aquatic invertebrates. This result was supported by an additional study (EC50 (48 h) 770 mg/L; MoE, 1997). However, this study was rated reliability 4, since relevant information on the performance of the study are missing in the available report.
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). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
