Description of key information

Under the conditions of the study the 72 hours EL50 was interpolated to 38.7 mg/l WAF. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The toxicity to aquatic organisms of the test substance was evaluated according to ISO 10253 (Water quality - Marine Algal Growth Inhibition Test with Skeletonema costatum and Phaeodactylum tricornutum). The test acceptance criteria given are fulfilled. The control cell density increased by a factor of more than 76 in the test period (corresponding to a growth rate of more than 0.9 d-1). The variation coefficient of the control specific growth rates did not exceed 7 %. The blank pH did not vary by more than 1.0 units during the test and the 72 hours test results with 3.5-dichlorophenol was in the range normally found.

Under the conditions of the study the 72 hours EL50 was interpolated to 38.7 mg/l WAF. The72 hours NOEC (No Observed Effect Concentration) the highest concentration without significant growth inhibition was 3.0m g/l WAF.
