Reference
Endpoint:
short-term toxicity to fish
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
Not applicable, calculated value
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: 2 (reliable with restrictions)
Justification for type of information:
A discussion and report on the read across strategy is given as an attachment in IUCLID Section 13.
Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
read-across: supporting information
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The aquatic toxicity was estimated by a QSAR, the Petrotox computer model (v 3.04). This model combines a partitioning model used to calculate the aqueous concentration of hydrocarbon components with the Target Lipid Model used to calculate acute and chronic toxicity of non-polar narcotic chemicals. Petrotox computes toxicity based on the summation of the aqueous-phase concentrations of hydrocarbon block(s) that represent a hydrocarbon substance and membrane-water partition coefficients (KMW) that describe the partitioning of the hydrocarbons between the water and organism

Executive summary:

The aquatic toxicity was estimated using the Petrotox computer model, which combines a partitioning model used to calculate the aqueous concentration of hydrocarbon components as a function of substance loading with the Target Lipid Model used to calculate acute and chronic toxicity of non-polar narcotic chemicals. Petrotox computes toxicity based on the summation of the aqueous-phase concentrations of hydrocarbon block(s) that represent a hydrocarbon substance and membrane-water partitioning coefficients (KMW) that describe the partitioning of the hydrocarbons between the water and organism.

The estimated freshwater fish 96 hour LL50 value is 18.27 mg/L based on mortality.

Description of key information

There is no data available for Methylcyclopentane. Data is available for Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5% n-hexane; hexane; and Hydrocarbons, C5-C7, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, n-hexane rich. This data is used for read across to Methylcyclopentane.

The estimated freshwater fish 96 hour LL50 is 18.27 mg/L based on mortality, for Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5% n-hexane.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
