Short-term toxicity to fish:

In a 96-h acute toxicity study, rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) were exposed to Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda at 100 mg/L nominal concentrations (limit test) under semi-static conditions according to the OECD guideline N° 203 (1992). 

The 96-h LC50was >100 mg/L

The NOEC values, based on mortality/sub-lethal effects, was 100 mg/L.

No sub-lethal effects were observed. 

Based on the results of this study, Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda was not harmful to fish.

 

Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates:

In a 48–hr-acute toxicity study, daphnids (Daphnia magna) were exposed to Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda at 0.1, 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L atnominal concentrations (range-finding/limit test) under semi-static conditions according to the OECD guideline N° 202 (2004). 

The 48– hour EC50was > 100 mg/L. 

The NOEC values, based on mortality/sub-lethal effects, was 100 mg/L.

Based on the results of this study, Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda was not harmful to invertebrate.

 

Toxicity to aquatic algae:

In a 72 hour acute toxicity study, the cultures ofPseudokirchneriella subcapitatawere exposed to Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic sodaat nominal concentrations of 12.5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 mg/L under static conditions according to the OECD guideline N° 201 (2011).  

The following results were determined:

NOEC = 12.5 mg/L

ErC50(0 -72h) >200 mg/L

EyC50(0-72h) > 141.6 mg/L

Based on the results of this study, Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda was not harmful to algae.

 

Toxicity to microorganisms:

In a reliable study, the inhibitory effect of the Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda on the respiration rate of aerobic wastewater microorganisms of activated sludge was investigated in a 3 -hour respiration inhibition test according to OECD guideline for Testing of Chemicals, n°209 (1984).

The following results were determined:

                                                  NOEC (mg/L): LOEC (mg/L): EC50 (mg/L):

Total Respiration                       0.16                0.51                  >5.2

Heterotrophic Respiration       0.05                0.16                  >5.2

Nitrification Respiration           1.64                5.2                    >5.2

 

The overall NOAEC determined during this study was 0.05 mg/L, based on heterotrophic respiration. The overall EC50 was determined to be greater than the highest level tested, 5.2 mg/L.

Based on the results of this study, Reaction product of naphthalene, propan-2-ol, sulfonated and neutralized by caustic soda has effect on the respiration rate of activated sludge microorganisms.
