Details on results:
As mentioned in the Section 3.1 in the Leadscope QPRF report
Toxicity to aquatic algae and cyanobacteria (Algae Acute GHS Category) is modelled for the 3 binary endpoints: (1) GHS Category I: 1 for all Algae Acute GHS Category GHS Category I or GHS Category II or GHS Category III, 0 for all other categories; (2) GHS Category II: 1 for all Algae Acute GHS Category GHS Category II or GHS Category III, 0 for all other categories; (3) GHS Category III: 1 for all Algae Acute GHS Category GHS Category III, 0 for all other categories. The outcome of the QSAR prediction for a particular binary endpoint is given as the probability of being a positive prediction on a scale of 0 to 1. A Positive Prediction Probability value under the model’s minimum negative probability threshold is Negative and a probability of greater than or equal to the model’s maximum positive probability threshold is Positive. The overall Algae Acute GHS Category prediction then is the most severe category where a Positive prediction was determined. If none of the predictions were Positive, then the Algae Acute GHS Category is considered Not Classified (i.e. Negative).

Conclusions:

Executive summary:

ECOSAR v2.0 was used to predict toxicity to aquatic algae for 2,7,7-trimethyl-3-oxatricyclo[4.1.1.0²,⁴]octane. 96h EC50 Green Algae of 2,7,7-trimethyl-3-oxatricyclo[4.1.1.0²,⁴]octane was predicted as 8.13 mg/L using ECOSAR v2.0.

Description of key information

Two QSAR models were used to predict the toxicity to aquatic algae and cyanobacteria for 2,7,7-trimethyl-3-oxatricyclo[4.1.1.0²,⁴]octane: a) ECOSAR which provided a quantitative result (96h EC50 Green Algae) and b) Leadscope which provided a qualitative result (GHS category based on 96h ErC50 Green Algae).

Results:

ECOSAR: 8.13 mg/L (96h EC50 Green Algae)

Leadscope: Category III (GHS classification for toxicity to aquatic toxicity and cyanobacteria).

The results from both these models are not coherent, worst-case scenario was selected as final conclusion (results from ECOSAR).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater algae:
8.13 mg/L
