Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

- REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE CATEGORY APPROACH
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE CATEGORY APPROACH
This scenario covers the category approach for which the hypothesis is based on transformation to a common compound. For the REACH information requirement under consideration, the effects obtained in studies conducted with different source substances are used to predict the effects that would be observed in a study with the target substance if it were to be conducted. The same type of effect is observed for the different source substances; this may include absence of effects for every member of the category. No relevant differences in strengths of effect are observed for several source substances.
There are no relevant variations in properties among source substances and the same potency is predicted for all target substances. This corresponds to Scenario 5 of the RAAF (ECHA, 2017). The substances ATG, MEATG, KTG, CaTG, and NaTG are different inorganic salts of a common acid, thioglycolic acid (TGA; synonym: 2-mercaptoacetic acid). They dissociate rapidly in aqueous media to the common thioglycolate anion and to their different counter ions. The water solubility of all category members is high.
This approach serves to use existing data on aquatic toxicity endpoints for substances in this category.
It can be predicted with high confidence that the target substances will display the same mode of action and lead to the same type and strength of effects as observed with the source substances.
