Description of key information
Studies on fish, daphnia and algae using synthetic amorphous silica (SAS) showed no toxicity; physical effects on daphnid mobility were observed in tests using unfiltered suspensions at 1000 mg/L and higher. Test results of SAS, based on loading rates, are as follows: 96h-LL0 (Danio rerio): 10,000 mg/L (suspension); 96h-NOEC (Pimephales promelas, colloidal silica): 500 mg/L; 24h-EL0 (Daphnia magna): 1000 mg/L (suspension), 24-h EL50 (Daphnia magna): >10,000 mg/L (filtered suspension). The 21day-NOECs for daphnid reproduction were at 100 mg/L or higher for the dissolved fractions of SAS. For algae, the 72h-EC50 was above water solubility, the 72h-NOEC was 173 mg/L (dissolved fractionl).
Additional information
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.
