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

A GLP-compliant OECD Guideline 202 study with Daphnia magna is available for Terpineol multi (a multi-constituent substance with alpha-Terpineol as its main constituent and gamma-Terpineol as the minor constituent). Daphnids (20/dose) were exposed to nominal concentrations of 40, 48, 58, 69, 83 and 100 mg/L Terpineol multi under static conditions for 48 hours. The 69 and 100 mg/L test concentrations were analytically verified at t=0 and t=48 -h. At t=0 about 70% of nominal was detected. Concentrations remained constant throughout the test. From a concentration of 48 mg/L immobilisation was noted in 3/20 daphnids which increased to 15/20 animals at the highest concentration tested. Based on these findings the 48-h EC50 value is 73 mg/L (based on nominal concentrations).

Additional information

The results of Terpineol multi can be used for alpha-Terpineol because the read-across candidate Terpineol multi(a multi-constituent substance with alpha-Terpineol as its main constituent and gamma-Terpineol as the minor constituent). The minor constituent is gamma-Terpineol is thought to have similar ecotoxicity because it has a very similar chemical structure and also belongs to the neutral organics (See IUCLID section 7.1 for constituents).
