Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Description of key information

Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:
Conclusion: Results from short-term invertebrate toxicity studies with several invertebrate species show that DTDP does not cause toxicity at the maximum achievable aqueous concentrations investigated in these tests (i.e. in excess of water solubility).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The results of short-term toxicity studies are reported as EC50, LC50, and NOEC values for acute invertebrate toxicity. The NOEC values represent the highest concentration measured in these studies that did not demonstrate effects. In all cases this was the highest concentration attainable and measured under the conditions of the study. The use of the NOEC values in the results overview table to derive values for quantitative risk assessment is inappropriate as they are not true NOEC values.

I5 Summary

The data used to characterize the invertebrate acute toxicity of di-isotrindecyl phthalate (DTDP) ester are consistent with the data for several high molecular weight phthalate diesters summarized by Staples et al. (1997). These data show that high molecular weight phthalate diesters do not produce acute toxicity to invertebrates at or below their maximum attainable solubliity. The acute invertebrate dataset includes results for three species, Daphnia magna, Paratanytarsus parthenogenetica, and Mysidopsis bahia (new name: Americamysis bahia).
