This stock solution was kept for stirring for 30 minutes to obtain a homogenous solution for the experiment. The test concentrations were chosen according to the available data of the test item. The concentrations chosen were set up to the water solubility limit. The remaining test solutions were prepared by dilution from the above stock solution. To have a better growth and visibility of cells, the initial of the culture was kept 1 X 104cells/ml. Care was taken to have a homogeneous solution for the experiment.

The effect of test item Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate, CAS No. 587-98-4 was studied on the growth of fresh water green alga Chlorella vulgaris. The study was conducted following OECD guideline 201- Alga, growth inhibition test. The test concentration chosen for the study were 0.5 mg/L,1 mg/L,2 mg/L,4 mg/L,8 mg/L,16 mg/L. The test concentrations were prepared using stock solution of the test item using mineral media. The green alga was exposed to the test concentration for a period of 72 hours to observe average specific growth rate and % growth inhibition under the effect of the test item. EC50 calculated graphically through probit analysis was observed to be 7.9267 mg/L.
Thus, it was concluded that the Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate (Cas no. 587-98-4) is toxic to aquatic invertebrates, hence it can be considered to be classified as Aquatic chronic 2 as per the CLP classification criteria for aquatic environment.

Thus, it was concluded that the Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate (Cas no. 587-98-4) is toxic to aquatic algae, hence it can be considered to be classified as Aquatic chronic 2 as per the CLP classification criteria for aquatic environment.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 7.927 mg/L
Additional information
Four studies, considered as key and supporting studies, including predicted data from validated tools and experimental data for toxicity to aquatic algae endpoint of test chemical Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate (CAS 587 -98 -4) with relevant read across which is close to target using log Kow as primary descriptor were summarised as follows:
In a key study, the effect of test item Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate, CAS No. 587-98-4 was studied on the growth of fresh water green alga Chlorella vulgaris. The study was conducted following OECD guideline 201- Alga, growth inhibition test. The test concentration chosen for the study were 0.5 mg/L,1 mg/L,2 mg/L,4 mg/L,8 mg/L,16 mg/L. The test concentrations were prepared using stock solution of the test item using mineral media. The green alga was exposed to the test concentration for a period of 72 hours to observe average specific growth rate and % growth inhibition under the effect of the test item. EC50 calculated graphically through probit analysis was observed to be 7.9267 mg/L.
Supporting data included prediction for target by Danish QSAR database, Using Battery algorithm model of Danish QSAR, the toxicity of Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate. EC50 was estimated to be 2.64 mg/l to Pseudokirchneriella s. at 72h.
Above experimental and predicted results for target assisted by experimental data of read across chemical 2-[({[(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)carbamoyl]amino}sulfonyl)amino]-N,N-dimethylbenzamide) (Cas no.213464-77-8) fromEPA Office of Pesticides Program Databaseindidcates that the Effective concentration to 50% of Anabaena flosaquae is 3.8 mg/L.Population (Abundance) as effect of measurement.
One another read across N'(3,4Dichlorophenyl) N,Ndimethylurea (Diuron) (Cas No. 330 -54 -1) from Science of the Total Environment.463/464:469-477, suggest the 50% Effective concentration to Sellaphora minima for Diuron is 2.606 mg/L when exposed for 96 hrs. It can be concluded that the Diuron is toxic to aquatic algae.
Thus based on the effect concentration from key study which is 7.9267 mg/l gives the conclusion that test substance Sodium 3-(p-anilinophenylazo)benzenesulphonate (CAS 587 -98 -4) is toxic to aquatic algae at environmentally relevant concentrations and can be considered to be“aquatic chronic 2”as per the CLP classification criteria.
