Acute toxicity to fish:

In an study conducted in accordance with OECD 203, the 96- hour acute toxicity study to freshwater fish (Oncorhynchus mykiss), conducted according to GLP, the NOEC of Bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl)amine is 100% v/v saturated solution (tested at the limit of water solubility. Water solubility is <0.1 mg/l based uponIntertek, 2012(Harlan Laboratories, 2013).

Chronic toxicity to fish

Upon review of the Bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl)amine acute ecotoxicity data, the NOEC results to aquatic invertebrates and fish (100% v/v saturated solution) showed no evidence of toxicity reported at the limit of solubility (water solubility is <0.1 mg/l). According to Column 2 of Annex IX of the European Union (EU) Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) 1907/2006 regulation the choice of appropriate testing depends upon the results of the chemical safety assessment. Based on acute aquatic results for Bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl)amine, and the low water solubility, toxicity is not expected in chronic toxicity testing, therefore, chronic testing of fish is being waived.

Acute toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:

In a study conducted according to OECD 202, the 48-hour acute toxicity to aquatic invertebrates,Daphina magna, conducted according to GLP, the NOEC of Bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl)amine is 100% v/v saturated solution (tested at the limit of water solubility). The Water solubility is <0.1 mg/l based uponIntertek, 2012) (Harlan Laboratories, 2013).

Chronic toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:

Upon review of the Bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl)amine acute ecotoxicity data, the NOEC results to aquatic invertebrates and fish (100% v/v saturated solution) showed no evidence of toxicity reported at the limit of solubility (water solubility is <0.1 mg/l). According to Column 2 of Annex IX of the European Union (EU) Registration, Evaluation, Authorization and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) 1907/2006 regulation the choice of appropriate testing depends upon the results of the chemical safety assessment. Based on acute aquatic results for Bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl)phenyl)amine, and the low water solubility, toxicity is not expected in chronic toxicity testing, therefore, chronic testing of invertebrates is waived.

Acute toxicity to algae:

In an OECD 201, 72- hour toxicity to algae (Pseudokirchnerella subcapitata), conducted according to GLP, the NOEC of bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl) phenyl) amine is100% v/v saturated solution (tested at the limit of water solubility) (Harlan Laboratories, 2013).

Acute toxicity to microorganisms:

In an OECD 209, 3- hour toxicity to sewage microorganisms, conducted according to GLP, the NOEC of bis(4-(1,1,3,3-tetramethylbutyl) phenyl) amine is100% v/v saturated solution (tested at the limit of water solubility) (Harlan Laboratories, 2012).
