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 toxic effects to fish up to the limit of water solubility (< 0.15 mg/L).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Short-term toxicity offatty acids, lanolin, esters with pentaerythritol (CAS 68440-09-5)to freshwater fish was investigated according to OECD 203 unter semi-static conditions usingOncorhynchus mykiss as test organism(Parr, 2012). A nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L was applied. The test solution was prepared by adding the appropriate amount of test substance with subsequent stirring, settling and sampling of the aqueous portions (WAFs). After the test duration of 96 hours a LL50 of > 100 mg/L was determined. Therefore it can be concluded thatfatty acids, lanolin, esters with pentaerythritol (CAS 68440-09-5)will not exhibit short-term effects to fish up to the limit of water solubility. As it can be seen in the data matrix of the category justification in section 13 and the overall summary, all reliable data in the category support the hazard assessment of each category member by showing a consistent pattern of resultswithin the polyol esters category, i.e. no toxic effects to fish or other aquatic organisms were observed up to the limit of water solubility.
