Conclusion on classification

Classification relevant information

Acute toxicity:

-         Fish: LC50 (96 h) = 1.78 mg/L (geom. mean meas., Oncorhynchus mykiss, OECD 203)

-         Aquatic Invertebrates: EC50 (48 h) = 1.1 mg test item/L (TWA, D. magna, OECD 202)

-         Algae: ErC50 (72 h) = 0.21 mg/L (geom. mean meas., P. subcapitata, OECD 201)

Chronic toxicity:

-         Fish: not available

-         Aquatic invertebrates: not available

-         Algae: ErC10 (72 h) = 0.075 mg/L (geom. mean meas., P. subcapitata, OECD 201)

Conclusion on classification

According to the harmonised classification and labelling (ATP01) approved by the European Union, this substance was classified as very toxic to aquatic life, Aquatic Acute 1 (H400). 

Experimental data on the short term toxicity of 3 trophic levels were available. The lowest EC50 value was determined as 0.21 mg/L (geom. mean meas.) for algae. Chronic data are available only for algae and an ErC10 of 0.075 mg/L (geom. mean measure.) was determined. The substance is a reducing agent and is expected to be transformed rapidly in the environment via oxidation. On the basis of the available data, the substance was self-classified as Aquatic Acute 1 (H400) and Chronic 2 (H411) according to the consolidated version of Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 and further amendments (ATPs).
