Endpoint:
toxicity to soil microorganisms
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because direct and indirect exposure of the soil compartment is unlikely

Description of key information

This end point was considered for waiver since direct or indirect exposure to the soil compartment is highly unlikely; give the use of this chemical as, in metal decorative paints, automotive coatings and latex paint; plastic coloring shows excellent thermal stability, light fastness, also used for a variety of inks, a good solvent resistance, heat resistance and sterilization treatment; art paint, solvent-based wood coloring. Hence, it is expected that toxicity to the soil macro-organisms with the chemical is unlikely.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
