Additional information
Calculation of PNEC water was based on results obtained in short-term studies on fish, daphnia and algae, namely L(E)C50 > 100 mg/l. These results indicate the lack of acute toxicity for the three trophic levels up to concentration of 100 mg/l.
Conclusion on classification
According to the CLP Regulation (EC n.1272/2008), the threshold of classification of a substance for acute aquatic toxicity is 1 mg/l. This limit is compared with LC50 (96h) for fish, EC50 (48 h) for daphnia and EC50 (72 - 96 h) for algae or aquatic plants.
LC50 96h > 100 mg/l was obtained based on read-across approach (see section 13 of this IUCLID dossier).
A study to assess the short-term Toxicity to Daphnia Magna of Chlorphenesin was performed and the result of the test was EC50 48h > 100 mg/l (nominal concentration).
Toxicity on algae was assessed in 72 -hour test. EC50 for algal growth rate was identified as major than 100 mg/l (nominal concentration).
No chronic toxicity data is available from long-term studies. In case of lack of chronic data, the potential for chronic toxicity is identified by appropriate combinations of acute toxicity data and lack of biodegradability. The threshold of classification is 100 mg/l.
Since no acute toxicity of test substance no classification for both acute and chronic aquatic toxicity was applied according to the CLP Regulation (EC n.1272/2008).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
