Description of key information

The effective concentration (EC50) value of 4-aminobenzene-1,3-disulphonic acid in green algae in a 96 hr study on growth effect was estimated to be 356.637 mg/L. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater algae:
356.637 mg/L

Additional information

The effective concentration (EC50) value of 4-aminobenzene-1,3-disulphonic acid in green algae in a 96 hr study on growth effect was estimated to be 356.637 mg/L. The BCF value of 4-aminobenzene-1,3-disulphonic acid reported was not >= 500 as well as the substance was found to be rapidly degradable.Thus considering the value from CLP Criteria for aquatic classification of the substance , it is concluded that 4-aminobenzene-1,3-disulphonic acid does not exhibit short term toxicity to green algae.
