Conclusion on classification

Referring to the effect concentrations of Macrolex Orange R it has to be classified according to the following reasons:

- No effects were determined in acute tests (algae and fish) and a preliminary acute test preceding the long-term toxicity study with daphnids.

- The most sensitive chronic toxicity for Macrolex Orange R is to invertebrates. As a NOEC of 0.255 mg/L has been determined for daphnids after 21 d.

- Macrolex Orange R is not readily biodegradable.

Depending on this the substance has to be classified as Category Chronic 2, H411, according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP).
