Description of key information
Acute toxicity:
The acute toxicity to fish (Oryzias lapites) of dibenzyl ether was tested in a semi-static test. After 96 hours of exposure a LC50 of 6.8 mg/L and a LC100 of 10 mg/L are measured. A NOEC of 3.2 mg/L and a LOEC of 5.8 mg/L are calculated.
The acute toxicity of dibenzyl ether to fish (danio rerio) was tested in a semi-static test. After 96 hours of exposure a LC0 / LC100 (geometric mean) of 9.7 mg/L was determined.
Prolonged toxicity:
The prolonged toxicity to fish (Oryzias lapites) of dibenzyl ether was tested in a flow-through test. After 14 days of exposure a LC50 of 3.2 mg/L was measured. After 21 days of exposure a LC50 of 2.2 mg/L was measured ; a NOEC of 0.48 mg/L and a LOEC of 2.2 mg/L are calculated.

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.
