Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Based on the nominal concentrations of the test item the 48-h EC50 for Daphnia magna was estimated to be 70.7 mg/L (95 % confidence limits: 50.0 – 100 mg/L). The NOEC after 48 h was 50.0 mg/L. The LOEC after 48 h was 100 mg/L. 
The effects observed at the concentration level of 100 mg/L were caused by the low pH-values (pH below the recommended range of pH 6 – 9). This was confirmed by the pH-neutralized concentration level of 100 mg/L which caused no effects on Daphnia magna. Based on the pH-neutralized concentration the 48-h EC50 and the NOEC for Daphnia magna were > 100 mg/L.
