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.

Additional information

In Annex IX of Regulation (EC) No 1907/5006, it is laid down that long-term toxicity testing in fish shall be proposed by the registrant if the chemical safety assessment indicates the need to investigate further the effects on fish. According to Annex I of this regulation, the chemical safety assessment triggers further action when the substance or the preparation meets the criteria for classification as dangerous according to Directive 67/548/ EEC or Directive 1999/45/EC or is assessed to be a PBT or vPvB.

The hazard assessment of N-Methylethanolamine reveals neither a need to classify the substance as dangerous to the environment, nor is it a PBT or vPvB substance, nor are there any further indications that the substance may be hazardous to the environment.

Taking into account consideration results from short-term toxicity tests on fish, Daphnia and algae there is a probability that the most sensitive species (algae, invertebrates) has already been examined and that a further long-term result from fish would not be lower than the data already available.

Therefore, a long-term toxicity testing in fish is not provided.
