Description of key information

 In the early-life stages test, the LOEC of the test substance to steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) was 0.089 mg Cr/l (0.407 mg/L) and NOEC was 0.048 mg Cr/L (0.220 mg/L) were derived after 72 days exposure from newly fertilized eggs to feeding fry.

Additional information

The early-life stages test was conducted to determine the chronic effects of trivalent chromium, added as chromium trinitrate, on the early life stages of steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri). Exposure during the chronic test lasted 72 d for newly fertilized eggs. Nine concentrations of <5, 9, 13, 19, 30, 48, 89, 157, 271 µg Cr/L and two controls were applied to test fish.

The LOEC of the test substance to steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) was 0.089 mg Cr/l and NOEC was 0.048 mg Cr/L (equivalent to 407 mg/L and 220 mg/L as chromium trinitrate) were derived after 72 days exposure from newly fertilized eggs to feeding fry.
