Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
Parent compound: no data available
Hydrolysis product: neodecanoic acid: with high probability acutely not harmful to algae
Hydrolysis product: HCl: Acutely very toxic for aquatic algae (pH dependent).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 388 mg/L
Additional information
There are no data available concerning the parent compound.
The hydrolysis product neodecanoic acid was tested according to OECD 201 (1992) under GLP conditions with . The 72 -h EC50 based on growth rate was 388 mg/L (EMBSI, 2003).
The hydrolysis product hydrochloric acid (HCl) showed acutely very toxic effects due to the low pH: 72 -h EC50 = 0.492 mg/L (OECD, 2002).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
