Additional information

Only one study concerning the acute toxicity of pentane-1,5 -diol is available. It was performed by BASF (1987) according to German industrial standard DIN 38412 part 15 using a static procedure and Leuciscus idus as test species. After 96 hours of exposure, a LC50 of 4640 mg/l was derived related to the nominal concentration. This results indicates a very low hazard potential of pentane-1,5 -diol to fish.
