Description of key information
The objective of this study was to determine the toxicity of BPAF/BPAF:BTPP-Salt,to the freshwater alga, Raphidocelis subcapitata, over a 72-hour exposure period.
A 72-Hour Toxicity Test with the Freshwater Algae (Raphidocelis subcapitata)”. The protocol was based on procedures outlined in OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals, 201: Freshwater Alga and Cyanobacteria,Growth Inhibition Test.
The freshwater alga, Raphidocelis subcapitata, was exposed to a geometric series of six mean measured concentrations of BPAF/BPAF:BTPP-Salt ranging from 0.0023 to 1.1 mg/L, based on mean measured concentrations. Effects were evaluated based on cell density, yield, and growth rate using mean measured test concentrations. The 72-hour EC50, EyC50, and ErC50 values were all determined to be 0.087, 0.089, and 0.45 mg/L, respectively. The 72-hour NOEC was determined to be 0.0087 mg/L.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 0.45 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 0.009 mg/L
Additional information
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.
