Conc. based on:
test mat.
Basis for effect:
mortality (fish)
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
Castor oil, hydrogenated (HCO) was not toxic to zebra fish as determined during a 96-h acute toxicity test using concentrations ranging from 1,000 mg/L to 10,000 mg/L. The LC50 and LC100 were both determined to be greater than 10,000 mg/L and the LC0 was 10,000 mg/L.

Description of key information

Castor oil, hydrogenated (HCO) was not toxic to Zebra-fish as determined during a 96 hr acute toxicity test using concentrations ranging from 1,000 mg/l to 10,000 mg/l. The LC50and LC100were both determined to be greater than 10,000 mg/l and the LC0was 10,000 mg/L.
