Description of key information
The acute toxicity of 4-methylthiosemicarbazide was evaluated with Daphnia magna in a study performed in accordance with OECD testing guideline 202 (part I) and GLP requirements. EC50-48 h was estimated using measured concentrations (geometric mean) as being equal to 3.1 mg/L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information
The acute toxicity of 4-methylthiosemicarbazide was evaluated with Daphnia magna in a study performed in accordance with OECD testing guideline 202 (part I) and GLP requirements.
The young daphnids were exposed to nominal test concentrations between 0.78 and 50 mg/L under static conditions during 48 hours. The mean measured concentrations were maintained between 80 and 120 % of nominal concentration from the 3.13 mg/L concentration only. EC50-48 h was estimated using measured concentrations (geometric mean) as being equal to 3.1 mg/L.
Mortality in control, temperatures, pH range and dissolved oxygen concentration were reported and in agreement with the guideline requirements.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
