- LC50
- Effect conc.:
- > 100 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:

- Details on results:
- No mortality or other effects were observed in the control or at any of the concentrations tested, see Table 1 in 'Any other information on results incl. tables'.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- No LC50 could be calculated because the test item proved to be non-toxic (LC50 > maximum concentration).

- Conclusions:
- In conclusion, the 96h-LC50 for carp (Cyprinus carpio) exposed to 4 (cyclohexylamino)butane-1-sulfonic acid was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded the analytically confirmed concentration of 100 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
In a 96-h acute toxicity study conducted according to the OECD guideline 203 and GLP principles, the acute toxicity of 4-(cyclohexylamino)butane-1-sulfonic acid to carp (Cyprinus carpio) was investigated.
In an static combined limit/range-finding test, carp were exposed to an untreated control and to 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L (control and 100 mg/L 7 fish per treatment and intermediate concentrations 3 fish per treatment). The measured concentrations of the highest tested concentration were at 92 and 96% relative to the nominal concentrations at the start and end of the test, respectively. Based on these results, effect parameters were expressed as analytically confirmed nominal concentrations. No mortality or other effects were observed in the control or at any of the concentrations tested.
In conclusion, the 96h-LC50 value for carp (Cyprinus carpio) exposed to 4-(cyclohexylamino)butane-1-sulfonic acid was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded the concentration of 100 mg/L.
The test met all validity criteria and is considered to be reliable without restriction.
