Description of key information
The toxicity of ditantalum pentoxide was determined in microorganisms to be EC₅₀ > 10000 mg/L according to a key study performed in line with Commission Directive 88/302/EEC; Official Journal of the EC L 133 Part C (1988). The guideline followed is in most parts equivalent to OECD 209.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The key study (Müller, 2000) was conducted in line with GLP and standardised guidelines with a sufficient level of detail to assess the quality of the study. Activated sludge was exposed to 10000 mg/L of the test material under static freshwater conditions. After an exposure time of 3 hours respiration inhibition was observed at 14.3%, thus it can be said that the EC₅₀> 10000 mg/L. The study was performed to a good standard and was assigned a reliability score of 1 using the principles for assessing data quality as set out in Klimisch (1997).
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).
