Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

EC50 for growth rate was found to be 76 mg/L after 72 hours. The EC50 for yield was found to be 36 mg/L after 72 hours. The NOEC for both growth rate and yield was found to be 25 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater algae:
76 mg/L
EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
25 mg/L

Additional information

The toxicity to algae was assessed following the methods outlined in the OECD 201 guidelines. Test concentrations were measured analytical by GC-HPLC and measured results were found to be 83 -108% of nominal concentrations. Therefore, nominal concentrations were used to report the results. EC50 for growth rate was found to be 76 mg/L after 72 hours. The EC50 for yield was found to be 36 mg/L after 72 hours. The NOEC for both growth rate and yield was found to be 25 mg/L.
