Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
Basing on a grouping approach, the 48-hour EC50 of glycolic acid for aquatic invertebrates is 141 mg/L (nominal), while the 72-hour EC50 of glycolic acid for aquatic plants is 44 mg/L (measured) for growth and 21.6 mg/L (measured) for biomass.
Although no data are available for ammonium glycolate, it has been considered that data from a similar substance which is an acid and which can therefore produce worse effects on aquatic organisms due to its low pH, are useful to predict the aquatic toxicity of ammonium glycolate.
Basing on the available data, no ecotoxicity is expected for ammonium glycolate.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
