Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Executive summary:

Data available for its structurally similar read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the toxic effect of the test chemical on microorganisms.The studies are as mentioned below:

Toxicity to microorganisms study was carried out for 30 mins. The study was performed in accordance with the ISO 11348-2 guideline. Bacteria V. fischeri (NRRL B-1117) was supplied as freeze-dried reagent, BioFix Lumi, from Macherey-Nagel, Du¨ ren, Germany. Test chemcal was dissolved in distilled water; osmolality adjusted to 2 % NaCl. Test chemical concentration used for the study was <=39.9 mg/L. Light production from luminescent bacteria was measured with a luminometer equipped with a constant temperature water bath (15°C). On the basis of the effect of test chemical on light production of the test organism V. fischeri, the 30 mins EC50 value was determined to be > 39.9 mg/l.

Another toxicity to micro-organism study was carried out using Bacillus subtilis as test organism. On the basis on effect of test chemical on growth rate of the test organism, the EC50 value was determined to be 0.53 mg/l.

On the basis of the experimental studies of the structurally similar read across chemical and applying the weight of evidence approach, the EC50 value of the test chemical on test organism can be expected to be in the range of 0.53 to > 39.9 mg/l.
