Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

In a 'read across' study on a sample of diesel fuel the 96-hr LL50 in rainbow trout was determined to be 65 mg/L.

 

Supporting PETROTOX (version 4.01) modelled values are available. PETROTOX combines a partitioning model (used to calculate the aqueous concentration of hydrocarbon components as a function of substance loading) with the Target Lipid Model (used to calculate acute and chronic toxicity of non-polar narcotic chemicals). PETROTOX computes toxicity based on the summation of the aqueous-phase concentrations of hydrocarbon block(s) that represent a petroleum substance and membrane-water partition coefficients (KMW) that describe the partitioning of the hydrocarbons between the water and organism. The model predicted an acute LL50 to be 30.4 mg/L.

QSAR predictions on short term toxicity to fish of EC 941 -364 -9 have also been provided to support the read-across.
