Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
OECD 216:
- EC50 (28-d): 320 mg/kg dw test mat. (nominal) based on: nitrate formation rate;
- NOEC (28-d): 180 mg/kg dw test mat. (nominal) based on: nitrate formation rate.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
A nitrogen transformation test is available for GTL Gasoil (Clarke, 2010). The test was conducted in accordance with OECD 216 and GLP.
Soil microorganisms were exposed to GTL Gasoil at concentrations of 100, 180, 320, 560 and 1000 mg/kg (dry weight) for 28 days at a temperature of 21°C, in the dark, with addition of Lucerne-green-grass meal as a respiratory substrate. The inhibitory effect of the test substance on nitrogen transformation was determined by measurement of nitrate concentrations in soil samples taken on Days 7, 14, 21 and 28, in comparison to control samples.
The effect of the test substance on nitrogen transformation gave an EC50of 320 mg/kg dw and a NOEC of 180 mg/kg dw.
The following information is taken into account for toxicity to terrestrial microorganisms:
(28-d) EC50320 mg/kg dw soil micro-organisms.
Value used for CSA:
Long-term EC50for soil microorganisms: 320 mg/kg dw.
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.
