Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
For AES (C12-18, 1-2.5EO) Na (CAS 68081-91-4) no test on microorganisms is available. Thus, as a worst-case assumption, read-across is prepared to a study conducted with alcohol C12 -14 ethoxysulfates. In that GLP-study of Diefenbach (Sasol, 1996) on growth inhibition of Pseudomonas putida according to DIN 38412, part 8 an EC10 and an EC50 -values of > 10 g/L could be determined after approximately 16 h of exposure. This study is defined as key study.
The two additions study available for microorganisms (Stelter, Cognis, 1993 and Berger & Guhl, Cognis, 1998) are regarded as not reliable as test duration and given endpoints based on respiration rate do not meet today standard methods.
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.
