Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Conclusions:
2nd: Toxicity data noted as ‘pT’ are listed as the negative logarithm of the millimolar concentration required to elicit a 50% reduction in light emission in the stated time (i.e. 5-, 15, or 30-min) and pT 30 was predicted to be 1.09.

3rd: Toxicity data noted as ‘pT’ are listed as the negative logarithm of the millimolar concentration required to elicit a 50% reduction in light emission in the stated time (i.e. 5-, 15, or 30-min) and pT 30 was predicted to be 1.52.
Executive summary:

First study provide a means to predict the ‘minimum’ toxicity that a phenol willexert in the Microtox test.Toxicity data noted as ‘pT’ are listed as the negative logarithm of the millimolar concentration required to elicit a 50% reduction in light emission in the stated time (i.e. 5-, 15, or 30-min) and pT 30 was predicted to be 1.09.

First study was supported by second from peer reviewed journal, provide a means to predict the ‘minimum’ toxicity that a phenol willexert in the Microtox test.Toxicity data noted as ‘pT’ are listed as the negative logarithm of the millimolar concentration required to elicit a 50% reduction in light emission in the stated time (i.e. 5-, 15, or 30-min) and pT 30, pT15 and pT5 was predicted to be 1.52, 1.59 and 1.66 respectively.
