Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
Weight of evidence apperoach was used for estimation the short term toxicity of cardanol to aquatic invertebrates. Cardanol had an LC50 of 1.59 mg/L and 0.42 mg/L after 24 and 48 hr exposures respectively as pr the experimental results.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Fresh water invertebrates
Fresh water invertebrates
- Effect concentration:
- 0.42 mg/L
Additional information
No. of studies for target substance for Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates from reliable sources having Klimisch rating 2 are presented below :
Sr no | Endpoint | Effect values | Basis for effects | Duration | Species | Sources |
1 | LC50 | 1.59 mg/L and 0.42 mg/L | Mortality | 24 & 48 hrs. | Daphnia magna | Publication data |
2 | LC50 | 1.053 mg/L | Mortality | 48 hrs. | Daphnia magna | Predicted data |
3 | LC50 | >5mg/L | Mortality | 48 hrs. | Biomphalaria glabrata | Publication data |
By applying weight of evidence approach to the target substance Cardanol,the experimental value of 0.42 mg/L (LC50 48 hours) shall be considered for chemical safety assessment.
