Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not applicable
Conclusions:
Predictions toxicity to aquatic plants determined by ECOSAR for N-(carbamoylmethyl) taurine:
Green algae 96-hr EC50: 1.32e+006 mg/L (Aliphatic Amines-acid class) although this chemical may not be soluble enough to measure this predicted effect. If the effect level exceeds the water solubility by 10X, typically no effects at saturation (NES) are reported.
Green Algae 96-hr EC50: 92560.039 mg/L (Amines-acid class).
