Justification for type of information:

The executive summary of the prediction is presented in the present section. The accompaning files are attached.
The long-term algae result (ErC10/NOEC) for the neutral organic Isocyclogeraniol is predicted to be 2.3 mg/L based on the ECOSAR SAR for neutral organics using an estimated log Kow of 3.3, molecular weight of 154.25 and the equation: Log 96h EC50 (mmol/L) = -0.6029 log Kow + 0.1648
Isocyclogeraniol falls within the applicability domain of the ECOSAR prediction because: a) the substance is a neutral organic presenting the toxicity solely by its bioavailability (i.e. without fragments that activate this chemical class); b) its log Kow is 3.3 (=< 8.0); c) its MW is 154.25 (< 1000); and; d) the toxicity predicted is below its water solubility of 656.2 mg/L.
The measured and predicted log Kow values of Isocyclogeraniol (3.6 and 3.3, respectively) are sufficiently similar and will not influence the uncertainty of the prediction. The measured versus the predicted chronic algae values, of the substances in the training set of ECOSAR with similar log Kow values and the fragrance types of Neutral Organics (see QMR), show that the prediction for Isocyclogeraniol presents similar uncertainty as can be expected from experimental testing. This means that the prediction is reliable and a Klimisch 2 can be assigned for this prediction. In accordance with REACH Annex XI, the validity of the (Q)SAR is documented in a QMR for chronic algae toxicity on neutral organics. The adequate and reliable documentation, presented in the study record, further supports this prediction.

Isocyclogeraniol falls within the applicability domain of the ECOSAR prediction because: a) isocyclogeraniol is a neutral organic presenting the toxicity solely by its bioavailability (i.e. without fragments that activate this chemical class); b) its log Kow is 3.3 (=< 8.0); c) its MW is 154.25 (< 1000); and; d) the toxicity predicted is below its water solubility of 656.2 mg/L.

The acute algae ErC50 for the neutral organic substance isocyclogeraniol is predicted to be 6.8 mg/L based on the ECOSAR SAR for neutral organics using an estimated log Kow of 3.3, molecular weight of 154.25 and the equation: Log 96h-EC50 (mmol/L) = -0.6922 log Kow + 0.9253
Isocyclogeraniol falls in the applicability domain of the ECOSAR prediction because: a) isocyclogeraniol is a neutral organic presenting the toxicity solely by its bioavailability (i.e. without fragments that activate this chemical class); b) its log Kow is 3.3 (=< 6.4); c) its MW is 154.25 (< 1000); and; d) the toxicity predicted is below its measured water solubility of 656.2 mg/L.
The predicted log Kow of isocyclogeraniol is similar to the measured one (3.3 and 3.6, respectively). The measured acute algae information from Log Kow related substances in the ECOSAR training set and in the IFF fragrance types of Neutral Organics present similar EC50 values and therefore there is no remaining uncertainty. The fit in the applicability domain and the availability of a substance with a similar Log Kow in the training set results in limited uncertainty of the isocyclogeraniol prediction. This shows that the prediction is reliable and a Klimisch 2 can be assigned. In accordance with REACH Annex XI, the validity of the (Q)SAR is documented in a QMR for acute algae toxicity on neutral organics (see attached report). The adequate and reliable documentation, are attached in the study record, further supports this prediction.
