Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Additional information
The Read across approach here discussed is based on the structural similarity of the two main components of target and source substances, on their similar composition and biodegradation potential, in order to fulfil eco-toxicological information requirements (toxicity to aquatic plants other than algae).
The inhibitory effects based on the average specific growth rate and the yield (absolute increase in plant size) to the duckweed Lemna minor was
investigated over a period of 7 days.
The test was performed at nominal concentrations of 11.4, 114 and 1140 mg/l of test substance, corresponding to 10, 100 and 1000 mg/l of the active ingredient (AI).
No chemical analysis of the test concentrations was conducted. The determination of the effect concentrations was based on the nominal concentrations of the active ingredient assuming the test item to be stable in medium for the whole test period.
For the endpoint frond number and with respect to growth rate inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 19 % at 100 mg/l and 75 % at 1000 mg/l. No significant effects were observed at 10 mg/l, as determined by Dunnet’s test.
For the endpoint frond number and with respect to yield inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 18 % at 10 mg/l, 41 % at 100 mg/l and 92 % at 1000 mg/l.
Based on these data the median effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (ErC50) and to yield (EyC50) for the endpoint frond
number was estimated to be 100–1000 and about 100 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively.
The no-observed-effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (NOErC) and yield (NOEyC) for the endpoint frond number were 10
and <10 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively, as determined by Dunnett's test.
For the endpoint dry weight and with respect to growth rate inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 20 % at 100 mg/l and 67 % at 1000 mg/l. No significant effects were observed at 10 mg/l, as determined by Dunnet’s test.
For the endpoint dry weight and with respect to yield inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 22 % at 10 mg/l, 44 % at 100 mg/l and 90 % at 1000 mg/l.
Based on these data the median effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (ErC50) and to yield (EyC50) for the endpoint dry
weight was estimated to be about 100 – 1000 and about 100 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively.
The no-observed-effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (NOErC) and yield (NOEyC) for the endpoint dry weight were 10 and <10 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively, as determined by Dunnett's test.
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).
