Additional information
No experimental data on the toxicity to algae of Mochon roh are available. In order to assess the short-term toxicity potential of the test substance, the read-across data for three representative constituents of the substance.
In a 72- hour acute toxicity study, the cultures of Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata were exposed to CAS 150 -76 -5 in accordance with the OECD guideline No 201. This GLP study was conducted under static conditions. The 72-h EC50 was 54.7 mg/L based on growth rate and the 72-h NOEC was 2.96 mg/L (measured initial concentrations, 2008, ECHA disseminated data).
Based on the results of this study, the substance is considered to be acutely harmful to aquatic algae.
A GLP study was performed with CAS 13482-23-0 in accordance with the OECD guideline 201. According to this static study a 72-h EC50 value was determined to be higher than 100 mg/L and the NOEC was 100 mg/L. (measured, ECHA, disseminated data). Therefore, the substance is considered to be acutely not harmful to aquatic algae.
The reaction mass of 4-methoxyphenol and 4-methoxy-cyclohexanone and 4-methoxy-cyclohexanol (EC 947-389-1; Mochon roh) is a mixture of 4-methoxycyclohexanone (CAS 13482-23-0), Mequinol (CAS 150-76-5) and there is no experimental data for the substance itself. Therefore, the assessment is based on the available read-across experimental data for its constituents. According to these data Mochon, roh is considered to be acutely harmful to aquatic algae.
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).
