Additional information
One key study (Klimisch score of 2) was identified with a freshwater species, the rainbow trout (Oncorynchus mykiss). This key study reported a 96-hr LC50 values of 4.2 mg/L. Two supporting studies were also identified that provided 96-hr LC50 values for the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas) of 5.5 mg/L and 13 mg/L. All three studies followed available guidelines but were nonGLP.
