Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
Fish, Ictalurus punctatus, LC50 = 1.250 mg/L.
Fish, Pimephales promelas, LC50 = 1.09 mg/L.
Acute aquatic toxicity is normally determined using a fish 96-hour LC50 , a crustacea species 48-hour EC50 and/or an algal species 72- or 96-hour EC50. These species cover a range of trophic levels and taxa and are considered as surrogate for all aquatic organisms. For phenyl salicylate are only available LC50 on fish.
Overall, available data are inconclusive since ecotoxicological data are not available for crustacea species and algal species an data on fish are just over 1 mg/L.
