Description of key information
Based on the results of the tests, the toxicity threshold value (EC10) of .beta.-Cyclodextrin was more than 10000 mg!l.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC10 or NOEC for microorganisms:
- 10 000 mg/L
Additional information
.Beta.-Cyclodextrin (99.5% pure) was investigated for its ability to inhibit the cell multiplication of the bacteria species Pseudomonas putida according to DIN 38412 Part L8 and NEN-EN-ISO 10712. Suspensions of Pseudomonas putida were exposed to concentrations ranging from312.5to 10000 mg .beta.-Cyclodextrin per liter.
After incubation for 16 hours the extinction values of the bacterial cell suspensions were measured. No significant (significant: >10%) toxicity was observed. Based on the results of the test presently performed, the toxicity threshold value (EC10) of .beta.-Cyclodextrin was over 10000 mg/l. The EC50 value for the reference substance, 3,5-dichlorophenol, tested during the same experiment, was 25 mg/l. Since this value was within the accepted range of 10-30 mg/l for the EC50, and the multiplication factor of thebacteriawithin the test was over 60, it was concluded that the test conditions were optimal and the results obtained were valid.
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).
