Description of key information

The effective concentration (EC50) value of 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid in aquatic algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) in a 72 hr study based upon effect on growth was estimated to be 199.5558 mg/L

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater algae:
199.556 mg/L

Additional information

The effective concentration (EC50) value of 3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulphonic acid in aquatic algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) in a 72 hr study based upon effect on growth was estimated to be 199.5558 mg/L.The other supporting studies also indicates that the values of toxicity to algae is beyond the classifing range.

1

EC 50 199.5558 mg/l Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata
 2  EC 50  179.126  mg/l  Green algae
 3  EC 50  380.534  mg/l  Green algae

 

Based on the above endpoint results it can be concluded that the substance3-acetamido-5-amino-4-hydroxybenzene sulphonic acid do not show any toxicity effect to aquatic algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) .Therefore the substance is considered to be not classified as per the C&L regulation.
