Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

72h EC50 (Desmodesmus subspicatus, growth rate) > 511 mg/L (measured concentration, EU Method C.3)
72h EC10 (Desmodesmus subspicatus, growth rate) = 199 mg/L (measured concentration, EU Method C.3)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
199 mg/L

Additional information

One study investigating toxic effects of C8-isoAS Na (CAS 126-92-1) to freshwater algae Desmodesmus subspicatus is available (Scholz 1995). The test was performed according to EU Method C.3 and is GLP compliant. Growth inhibition caused by the test substance was determined after 24, 48 and 72 h of exposure to five test concentrations up to 511 mg a.i./L (measured concentration equal to 900 mg a.i./L of nominal concentration). The results show that the 72-hour EC50 value for growth rate was above the highest test concentration of 511 mg a.i./L (measured concentration). The 72-hour EC10 value for growth rate was determined to be 199 mg a.i./L (measured concentration).
