Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information
Experimental data on the toxicity of 2-piperidinoethanol (CAS 3040-44-6) to aquatic algae are available. The toxicity of the test substance (CAS 3040-44 6) to the test organism Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was assessed according to OECD 201. The test item concentrations were analytically verified (mean recovery: 75 - 100% to nominal values). The effect values are based on nominal concentrations. The obtained ErC50 (72 hr) was 1.56 mg/L, the 72 -h ErC10 was 0.29 mg/L (BASF SE, 2019, study no.: 60E0154/18059).
Based on the lowest available effect value, the substance is considered to be acutely toxic to algae.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
