Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

There are no reliable (Klimisch 1 or 2) long-term toxicity studies with invertebrates available with p-tert-amylphenol.

However, a reliable (Klimisch 2) long-term toxicity study with invertebrates has been conducted for p-tert-butylphenol, a structural analogue.

EA of Japan (1996) provides a NOEC of 0.73 mg/L for Daphnia magna.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

There are no reliable (Klimisch 1 or 2) long-term toxicity studies with invertebrates available with p-tert-amylphenol. However, a reliable long-term study with invertebrates is available for the analogue, p-tert-butylphenol. As provided in the Read Across Report, toxicity data for the analogue substance can be used for toxicity assessment of p-tert-amylphenol.

EA of Japan (1996) has conducted a reliable (Klimisch 2) study according to OECD 211 with the analogue, p-tert-butylphenol. Daphnia magna, less than 24 hours old, were exposed to the test substance for 21 days under semi-static conditions. The 21-day NOEC and LOEC, based on reproduction were 0.73 and 2.3 mg/L, respectively.

There are no reliable (Klimisch 1 or 2) long-term toxicity studies with invertebrates available with p-tert-amylphenol. However, a reliable (Klimisch 2) long-term toxicity study with invertebrates has been conducted for the analogue, p-tert-butylphenol and is included in this dossier. The key study, EA of Japan (1996) provides a NOEC of 0.73 mg/L for Daphnia magna. Consequently this value will be taken as the long-term toxicity in aquatic invertebrate’s endpoint for p-tert-amylphenol.
