2. Description of results and assessment of reliability of the prediction:

See attachment QPRF: ‘Prediction of acute toxicity of (10E)-oxacycloheptadec-10-en-2-one to Daphnia Sp. (48-hour EC50)’ version 1.0; dated 09 April 2018.

Inputs Used for Test Item: All modelling was based on input of SMILES notation for each constituent of the test item and the process relied on modelled or measured values for Kow and water solubility to define each constituent prediction. This approach is in line with the attached QMRF named ‘iSafeRat® HA-QSAR based on a holistic approach for predicting physicochemical and ecotoxicological endpoints’ version 1.8; 30 November 2017, and ECHA Guidance on Information Requirements and Chemical Safety Assessment Chapter R7.b for hazard assessment of substances.

For the purpose of concluding on classification and labelling for this substance:

1. Substance rapidly degradable: Yes

2. Log Kow: > 4.0 although BCF < 500 L/kg wet-wt (by validated QPRF prediction and additional evidence)

3. Selection of effect levels from most sensitive trophic species

 

Assessment of the substance within the applicability domain as documented within the corresponding QMRF named ‘iSafeRat® HA-QSAR based on a holistic approach for predicting physicochemical and ecotoxicological endpoints’ version 1.8; 30 November 2017 – section 5; indicates the substance:

(i) The water solubility value given as the input to the Ecotox module of the iSafeRat® Holistic HA-QSAR does not fall within the descriptor domain of the model between a log water solubility (in log (mol/L)) of - 4.79 to 0.93 where the EC50 can be calculated. However, it falls beyond a log water solubility (in log (mol/L)) of -4.68 from which the toxicity value is higher than the water solubility limit. Therefore, the EC50 can be considered as greater than the subcooled liquid water solubility value within the exposure period of the test. Expert judgement indicates, this prediction and conclusion is considered acceptable within the definitions of the applicability domain of the model. See QMRF section 5.2 for further details.

(ii) Falls within the structural fragment domain

(iii) Falls within the mechanistic domain of MechoA 2.1
