Additional information

The study was performed according to OECD guideline no. 203 (1984). The nominal concentrations were 10, 18, 32, 58 and 100 mg/L (measured concentrations: 5.15, 11.3, 18.5, 46.3, 71.3 mg/L, respectively). The LC0 and the LC50 (96h) in Danio rerio are both higher than 71 mg/L, according to the measured concentrations at the beginning and at the end of the study (average of the two values). The test compound concentration did not change during the test period. The substance was mixed with alkylphenol-polyglycoether and tetrahydrofuran to make a stock solution (1 and 132 mg/L, respectively). The test substance was present at least partially as a suspension.

No mortality was observed.

In a non-GLP guideline study according to OECD 203 and performed with a structural analogue, no toxic effects were observed up to the highest test concentration = 100 mg/L in Danio rerio. Though some deviations from the guideline were employed (e.g. the test substance and vehicle were added directly to the water in the tanks, very high vehicle concentration) the test is considered to be valid. Therefore, no toxic effects occur at the range of solubility.

Both effect concentrations are well above the solubility limit of the test substances (water solubility < 1 mg/L, see chapter 4.8 in IUCLID). Therefore, they represent a worst case assumption where water solubility is achieved by excessive use of solvent. In conclusion, the substance shows no effect in the range of water solubility.
