Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Basis for effect:
respiration rate
Details on results:
The test material showed no significant effect on carbon transformation activity of soil micro-organisms at a test concentration of 1000 mg/kg over a 28-day period. The test material is therefore considered to have no long-term effect on carbon transformation in soil.
Conclusions:
The effect on the carbon transformation activity of soil micro-organisms was investigated over a 28 day period and gave an EC50 value of greater than 1000 mg/kg and a NOEC of 1000 mg/kg.

Description of key information

Soil micro-organism toxicity (carbon transformation): NOEC 1000 mg/kg
Soil micro-organism toxicity (nitrogen transformation): NOEC 1000 mg/kg

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Short-term EC50 for soil microorganisms:
1 000 mg/kg soil dw
Long-term EC10 or NOEC for soil microorganisms:
1 000 mg/kg soil dw

Additional information

OECD Guideline 216 (Soil Microorganisms: Nitrogen Transformation Test):

The effect on the nitrogen transformation activity of soil micro-organisms was investigated over a 28 day period and gave an EC50 value of greater than 1000 mg/kg and a NOEC of 1000 mg/kg.

OECD Guideline 217 (Soil Microorganisms: Carbon Transformation Test):

The effect on the carbon transformation activity of soil micro-organisms was investigated over a 28 day period and gave an EC50 value of greater than 1000 mg/kg and a NOEC of 1000 mg/kg.
