Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Aquatic acute tests covering 3 trophic levels, (algae, fish and invertebrate), were conducted. Activated sludge respiration inhibition data is also presented.

In accordance with column 2 of REACH Annex VIII-X, the acute Daphnia study does not need to be conducted if a long-term aquatic toxicity study on invertebrates is available (performed for China Level II notification; according to Guidance for New Chemical Substance Notification" (September, 2010)).

All the aquatic studies were conducted in accordance with GLP and OECD guidance and endpoints were based on nominal concentrations.

- In an OECD 203 acute fish toxicity test the 96 hour LC50 was found to be greater than 100 mg/L.

- The OECD 202 acute Daphnia magna test was not performed as a long-term aquatic toxicity study on invertebrates is available (performed for China Level II notification; according to Guidance for New Chemical Substance Notification" (September, 2010)).

- In an OECD 211 Long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates, the 21-Day EC50 (immobilization) value, based on nominal test concentrations, for the parental daphnia generation (P1) was calculated to be 84 mg/L.

The 21-Day EC50 (reproduction) based on nominal test concentrations was 94 mg/L with 95% confidence limits of 76 to 96 mg/L.

The "Lowest Observed Effect Concentration" (LOEC) and the "No Observed Effect Concentration" (NOEC) for reproduction based on nominal test concentrations were 100 and 56 mg/L respectively.

The "Maximum Acceptable Toxicant Concentration" (MATC) was calculated to be 75 mg/L.

- In an OECD 201 algal inhibition test the 72 hour ErC50 for growth rate was found to be greater than 100 mg/L and the NOEC was found to be 100 mg/L.

- In an OECD 209 activated sludge respiration inhibition test, the 3 hour EC50 was determined to be greater than 1000 mg/L

In conclusion there is no indication of toxicity of FAT40871/A TE to the aquatic environment.

Additional information

Based on the results, FAT 40871 is not classified for the aquatic environment according to CLP (regulation 1272/2008) criteria.
