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

With high probability acutely not harmful to aquatic algae.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Only one study on fish is currently available for the aquatic toxicity assessment of the test substance. Due to the test compounds structural similarities and alike physico-chemical properties compared to ethylene urea (CAS 120-93-4), which has only one additional carbon-atom in the cyclic part of the molecule, ethylene urea can be considered as an structural analogue adequate for read-across (SMILES code for ethylene urea: O=C(NCC1)N1; SMILES code for propylene urea: O=C1NCCCN1).

The outcome of a publication is available for the hazard assessment of the read-across substance ethylene urea to Chlorella pyrenoidosa. The EC50 (based on the growth rate after 96 hours) value was determined to be 16000 mg/L (Van Leeuwen 1985). Therefore, the test substance is considered likewise with high probability acutely not harmful to aquatic algae.
