Additional information
No long-term studies were available. Available short term studies showed LC50 (96h) on fish of 12.5 mg/l, EC50 (48h) on daphnia = 0.0955 mg/l and EC50 (72h) on aquatic plants of 3.52 mg/l. The lowest value, i.e. EC50 = 0.0955 mg/l, was used in the calculation of PNECwater .
Assessment factors of 1000 and 10000 were used for fresh water and marine water, respectively.
The derivation of PNECwater, intermittentwas done by applying an assessment factor of 100 to the lowest value obtained in at least three short-term aquatic toxicity studies from three trophic levels, i.e. 0.0955 mg/l.
The value of PNECstpwas derived using the EC10 value determined in a toxicity study on microorganisms, i.e. 0.113 mg/l, by applying an assessment factor of 10.
Due to the lack of ecotoxicological data, PNECsedimentfor fresh water and marine water were calculated using equilibrium partitioning method. This method uses PNECwaterfor aquatic organisms and suspended matter/water partition coefficients as inputs. Bulk density of wet suspended matter is 1150 kg/m3. Note that this approach is used only as a rough screening since it may result in both an overestimation or underestimation of toxicity. The suspended matter-water partition coefficient was computed and resulted as 1.06 m3/m3. A correction factor of 4.6 from wet weight to dry weigth was applied to obtain the final PNECsediment.
The amount of test substance in the air compartment was expected to be very low, since the substance is a solid with a negligible vapour pressure. Therefore, no hazard was identified.
The calculation of PNECsoilwas done using the equilibrium partitioning method, based on the assumption that soil toxicity, expressed in terms of freely-dissolved substance concentration in the pore water, is the same as aquatic toxicity. The pore water concentration is correlated with the bioavailable fraction. Note that this approach was originally developed for sediments but it may be applied to soil. In the calculation of PNECsoil, PNECwaterfor aquatic organisms and soil-water partition coefficient were used as inputs. Bulk density of wet soil is 1700 kg/m3. Soil-water partition coefficient was computed and resulted as 0.395 m3/m3. A correction factor of 1.13 from wet weight to dry weight was applied to obtain the final PNECsoil.
Secondary poisoning concerns toxic effects in the higher members of the food chain which results from ingestion of organisms from lower trophic levels that contain accumulated substances. It is relevant for highly lipophilic organic chemicals, with a log Pow above the cutoff value of 4 reported in the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008). Due to the absence of potential for bioaccumulation indicated by a log Pow of -0.3993, test substance was considered as not hazardous with respect to secondary poisoning.
Conclusion on classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC 1272/2008), a substance shall be classified as category acute 1 (H400) when:
96 hr LC50 (for fish) < 1 mg/l and/or
48 hr EC50 (for crustacea) < 1 mg/l and/or
72 or 96 hr ErC (for algae or other aquatic plants) < 1 mg/l.
Moreover, if adequate chronic toxicity data is not available, a substance shall be classified as category chronic 1 (H410) when:
96 hr LC50 (for fish) < 1 mg/l and/or
48 hr EC50 (for crustacea) < 1 mg/l and/or
72 or 96 hr ErC (for algae or other aquatic plants) < 1 mg/l
and the substance is not rapidly degradable and/or the experimentally determined BCF ≥ 500 (or, if absent, the log Kow ≥ 4).
Based on the available information, target substance is classified in category 1 for aquatic acute toxicity (H400) and aquatic chronic toxicity (H410).
