Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The 3 -hour EC50 was determined to be >1000 mg/L and the 3 -hour NOEC was determined to be 1000 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for microorganisms:
1 000 mg/L
EC10 or NOEC for microorganisms:
1 000 mg/L

Additional information

A 3 -hour OECD 209 activated sludge respiration inhibition test was conducted for DMATO. Activated sludge collected from a wastewater treatment plant which handles predominantly domestic sewage was exposed to the test substance at concentrations of 0(control), 10, 100, and 1000 mg/L. The oxygen content was measured at the beginning of the test and after 3 hours exposure to the test item at 20 ± 2 °C.

The test substance was not found to cause significant inhibition to activated sludge respiration even at the highest concentration tested. As such, the 3 -hour EC50 was determined to be >1000 mg/L and the 3 -hour NOEC was determined to be 1000 mg/L.
