Conclusions:
The ErC50 (growth) for MnSO4.H2O was 61 mg/L and the No Observable Effect Concentration (NOEC) (growth) was 1.0 mg/L.
Executive summary:

The toxicity of the read across source substance to aquatic algae was assessed according to OECD Test Guideline 201 and in compliance with GLP.


Under the conditions of the study the ErC50 (growth) was 61 mg/L and the NOEC (growth) was 1.0 mg/L.

Description of key information

Under the conditions of the study the ErC50 (growth) for the read across source substance was 61 mg/L and the NOEC (growth) was 1.0 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for freshwater algae:
61 mg/L
EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
1 mg/L

Additional information

The toxicity of the read across source substance ro aquatic algae was assessed according to OECD Test Guideline 201 and in compliance with GLP. The study was awarded a reliability score of 2 in accordance with the criteria set forth by Klimisch et al. (1997).


Under the conditions of the study the ErC50 (growth) was 61 mg/L and the NOEC (growth) was 1.0 mg/L.
