Endpoint:
short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates
Type of information:
other: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:

Study period:
From September 5th to 9th, 1995.

Principles of method if other than guideline:
Acute toxicity of substance to invertebrates was investigated in a 48 hours: 5 animals per vessel and two vessels per test substance concentration were used (0.1, 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/l); two vessels were used as vehicle control and further two vessels as blank control.
