- Estimation of 96 hr EC50 value of test chemical by modelling Database - ECOSAR v.1.11. The ECOSAR Class Program is a computerized version of the ECOSAR analysis procedures as currently practiced by the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics (OPPT). It has been developed within the regulatory constraints of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA). It is a pragmatic approach to SAR. The structure-activity relationships (SARs) presented in this program are used to predict the aquatic toxicity of chemicals based on their similarity of structure to chemicals for which the aquatic toxicity has been previously measured. Most SAR calculations in the ECOSAR Class Program are based upon the octanol/water partition coefficient (Kow). Various surfactant SAR calculations are based upon the average length of carbon chains or the number of ethoxylate units.

- Executive summary:
Based on the prediction done using theEPI Suite ECOSAR version 1.10, the short term toxicity on green algae was predicted for test substance menthone (89 -80 -5). On the basis of effects observed in a static freshwater system, the effect concentration EC50 value for the substance is estimated to be 13.399 mg/l for green algae for 96 hrs duration. Based on this value, it can be concluded that the test chemical menthone can be considered as toxic to green algae at environmentally relevant concentrations and can be considered to be classified in aquatic chronic category 3 as per the CLP classification criteria.

Additional information
Based on the various predicted and experimental data for the target chemical study have been reviewed to determine toxic nature of menthone (89-80-5) (2R, 5S)-5-methyl-2-(propan-2-yl) cyclohexan-1-one on the growth and other activity of algae. The studies are as mentioned below:
In the first weight of evidence study for target chemical menthone toxicity was measured according to the ECOSAR. Based on the prediction done using the EPI Suite ECOSAR version 1.10, the short term toxicity on green algae was predicted for test substance menthone (89 -80 -5). On the basis of effects observed in a static freshwater system, the effect concentration EC50 value for the substance is estimated to be 13.399 mg/l for green algae for 96 hrs duration. Based on this value, it can be concluded that the test chemical menthone can be considered as toxic to green algae at environmentally relevant concentrations and can be considered to be classified in aquatic chronic category 3 as per the CLP classification criteria.
First study was supported by another study which was conducted for read across chemical from secondary sources. Study of toxicity of test chemical on the growth of green algae for 72 hrs was carried out. Test performed in accordance with OECD Guideline 201 (Alga, Growth Inhibition Test) under static system. After the exposure of chemical with the green algae the EC50 and NOEC value was measured. Based on the growth rate inhibition of algae the EC50 and NOEC was >2.5 and 2.5mg/l. But on the basis of AUG the EC5O and the NOEC was >70 mg/l. Thus based on the EC50 (>70 mg/l) value by considering AUG, chemical was concluded as toxic and can be consider to be classified as chronic 3 category.
Similar results was obtain for another read across chemical from secondary source. Short term toxicity study of test chemical on the growth of Scenedesmus subspicatus (Algae) was carried out for 72 hours. The study was performed according the standard OECD guideline 201. Test conducted under the static system. Control and test material is used in the test. Based on the growth inhibition of algae due to the test chemical for 72 hrs. The NOEC was 5 mg/l, LOEC was 10mg/l and the ErC50 was 16.2 mg/l. Based on the EC50, chemical was consider as toxic and can be consider to be classified in aquatic chronic category 3 as per the CLP classification criteria.
Based on the data from various databases and secondary sources for target menthone (89-80-5) and read across chemicals, menthone was toxic and can be consider as classified as aquatic chronic 3 category as per mention in CLP classification criteria.
