- Executive summary:
Rainbow trout were exposed to a five test concentrations of Troysan 174 and a negative (well water) control for 96 h. Two replicate test chambers were maintained in each treatment and control group, with 10 fish in each test chamber. Nominal test concentrations selected were 13.0, 21.6, 36.0, 60.0, and 100 mg of Troysan 174/L which is based upon the results of acute range finding toxicity tests. Observations of mortality and other clinical signs of toxicity were made at 2, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours. The 96-hour LC50 value for rainbow trout exposed to Troysan 174 was >100 mg/L. The 96-hour no observed effect concentration was 100 mg/L, as determined by visual examination of the toxicity data.

Additional information
Four results including different experimental and predicted data from validated models for short term fish toxicity endpoint of target chemical 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol (Cas no. 34375-28-5) were summarized as follows:
First study from HPVIS database by US EPA; 2017 which indicate Rainbow trout were exposed to a five test concentrations of Troysan 174 and a negative (well water) control for 96 h. Two replicate test chambers were maintained in each treatment and control group, with 10 fish in each test chamber. Nominal test concentrations selected were 13.0, 21.6, 36.0, 60.0, and 100 mg of Troysan 174/L which is based upon the results of acute range finding toxicity tests. Observations of mortality and other clinical signs of toxicity were made at 2, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours. The 96-hour LC50 value for rainbow trout exposed to Troysan 174 was >100 mg/L. The 96-hour no observed effect concentration was 100 mg/L, as determined by visual examination of the toxicity data.
Above aquatic classification supported by ECOTOX database,2017 suggest In Acute fish toxicity study, the lethal concentration (LC50) was determined for test substance 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol with an exposure period of 96 hrs. on the basis of effects on mortality. Test organism used was Oncorhynchus mykiss in static freshwater system. The Lethal concentration to 50% of test organisms(LC50) on the basis of Mortality effect was observed to be 0.0603 mg/l and No-observable-effect-level (NOEL) was observed to be 0.0307 mg/l for exposure period of 96 hrs.
Thus based on the above value, it is concluded that the test substance 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol hazarous to aquatic environment,since the substance is readily biodegradable in nature it is consider that test substance 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol not classified as per the CLP criteria.
And Prediction is done using OECD QSAR Toolbox version 3.3 with logKow as the primary descriptor data indicate the prediction was based on the effects of the test compound on Danio rerio (previous name: Brachydanio rerio) in a static fresh water system during a 96 hour exposure. The lethal concentration (LC50) for the test compound 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol (CAS no. 34375-28-5) was estimated to be 312.69 mg/l on the basis of mortality effect. Thus, based on this value, test chemical compound 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol was considered to be non toxic to fish and thus can be not classified as per the CLP regulations.
Above all results assist by prediction using the EPI Suite ECOSAR version 1.10, the short term toxicity on fish was predicted for test substance 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol (CAS: 34375-28-5). On the basis of effects observed in a static freshwater system, the lethal concentration LC50 value for the substance is estimated to be 447000 mg/l for fish for 96 h duration. Based on this value, it can be concluded that the test chemical 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol can be considered as non toxic to fish at environmentally relevant concentrations and can be considered to be not classified as per the CLP classification criteria.
Thus all available studies for short term fish toxicity endpoint come to conclusion that the test substance 2-[hydroxy(methyl)amino]ethanol (Cas no. 34375-28-5) is expected to be non toxic to fish and thus not consider for aquatic classification.
