Additional information
According to the EU Risk Assessment (2004) no adsorption onto the organic fraction of soil or sediments is expected, due to the ionic structure under environmental relevant pH conditions. In addition, according to the monitoring data of Virtapohja (2000) (please refer to IUCLID 5, 5.5.1) the concentration of adsorbed EDTA in the sediment is neglible. However, the mortality of Tubifex tubifex on acid EDTA and Na2EDTA was examined in a non guideline study [Jancovic & Mann, 1969], for justification of read-across see IUCLID 5, chapter 13. The 24h LC100 values ranged between 380 mg/L for acid EDTA and 2000 mg/L for Na2EDTA. As such high values are not expected to occur under natural conditions in the sediment no risk to sediment dwelling organisms is considered.
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.
