Additional information
The short-term toxicity of 1,4 -Butenediol to algae has been studied according to Guideline DIN 38412 under non-GLP conditions using Scenedesmus subspicatus (new name: Desmodesmus subspicatus). The 72 hour EC50 value determined during this test was 290mg/L, the 72 hour EC 10 value was 48 mg/L, and the 72 hour EC90 was 1550 mg/L (BASF AG 1989) and indicates a low degree of toxicity to Desmodesmus subspicatus.
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.
