Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
No terrestrial species toxicity data are available for GTL Kerosine, however data are available with the closely related substance GTL Gasoil. These data are read-across to GTL Kerosine. The read-across is justified as the two substances share many constituents in common and the data reflect the lack of significant adverse effects with whole products.
Toxicity studies are available with soil macroorganisms (Eiseinia foetida), terrestrial plants (Glycine max, Lycopersicon esulentum, Sinapis alba, Avena sativa, Lolium perenne) and soil microorganisms. A short-term and a long-term toxicity study are available withE. foetida, which indicate that the test substance is of low toxicity: NOEC (14-d and 28-d) ≥1000 mg/kg dw, based on mortality and reproduction (Priestly 2010 and Schmidt 2010, respectively). GTL Gasoil was tested with a series of plants in growth studies which also indicated the low toxicity of the test substance. The lowest EC50(21-d) was 990 mg/kg dw with L. perenne based on growth, while the lowest NOEC (21-d) was 560 mg/kg dw recorded with S. albaalso based on growth (Goodband 2010). A nitrogen transformation test with GTL Gasoil resulted in an EC50(28-d) value of 320 mg/kg and a NOEC (28-d) of 180 mg/kg based on nitrate formation rate (Clarke 2010).
Overall, the studies indicate that the read-across substance GTL Gasoil is of low toxicity to terrestrial organisms.
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.
