Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

No key study for fish is available for guaiacol, but a weight of evidence approach can be applied.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

No reliable study is available on guaiacol for fish: two data are from secondary literature (primary data not available) and gave on Perca sp. LC50 48H = 70 - 80 mg/l (Little, 1970) and LC50 96H = 44 mg/l (unknown species, Gilron et al., 1999). These data can however be used in a weight of evidence approach. All these data indicate that guaiacol can be considered as harmful for fish.
