Description of key information

The  lowest reliable short-term toxicity to soil microorganisms (Eisenia fetida)   which is reported by of Phillips, D.R., and T. Bolger 1998, after a 30 days exposure to aluminium sulphate was 2000 mg/kg soil dw (EC50). 
This information will be take into account for terrestrial plants toxicity for the derivation of PNEC.
The lowest reliable long-term toxicity to soil microorganisms (Eisenia fetida) which is reported by Cornelis A.M. van Gestel and Gert Hoogerwerf 2000, after a 42 days exposure to aluminium sulphate was 579 mg/kg soil dw (NOEC). One of the 42d LC50 was 2893 mg/kg soil dw.
This information will be take into account for terrestrial plants toxicity for the derivation of PNEC.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Short-term EC50 for soil microorganisms:
2 000 mg/kg soil dw
Long-term EC10 or NOEC for soil microorganisms:
579 mg/kg soil dw

Additional information

Under the conditions of the study of Phillips, D.R., and T. Bolger 1998, aluminium sulphate induced No Mortality effects in Eisenia fetida below 400 mg/kg soil (NOEC) at pH 4.2. One of the 30d LC50 was between 2000 and 4000 mg/kg soil dw.

 

Under the conditions of the study of Cornelis A.M. van Gestel and Gert Hoogerwerf 2000, aluminium sulphate induced No Mortality effects in Eisenia andrei below 579 mg/kg soil (NOEC) . One of the 42d LC50 was 10 and 2893 mg/kg soil dw.
