Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information

Additional information

The following key information is used to evaluate the aquatic short-term toxicity of the target substance:

 

Toxicity to algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata): 72-h EC50: 449 µg/l (OECD 201, GLP)

Toxicity to invertebrates (Daphnia magna): 48-h EC50: 0.94 mg/l (OECD 202, GLP)

Short-term toxicity to freshwater fish (Leiostomus xanthurus): 96-h LC50: 0.09 mg/l (read-across, WoE, non-guideline study)

Short-term toxicity to marine water fish (Oncorhynchus kisutch): 96-h LC50: 0.03 mg/l (read-across, WoE, non-guideline study)

Respiratory inhibition of activated sludge: 3-h EC50 251.5 mg/l (OECD 209; GLP)

 

Target substance is usually maintained in pH above 11 because it becomes unstable if pH drops below 9. In very low pH (<4) the substance will release chlorine gas. When substance is introduced to test conditions, it will become unstable making analytical quantification difficult.

 

Because of these properties of test substance, samples of test medium in the key studies were not collected during the exposure period for the analytical verification of the test solutions. Test substance could not be quantified in the test system due to the nature of the material being unstable under the test conditions and the fact that no suitable analytical technique with the required sensitivity could be determined. The results of key studies were based on nominal test concentrations.

 

PNEC values were derived from studies (GLP compliant and fulfilling OECD guidelines) conducted with the test substance. Short-term toxicity value for fish was based on read-across data from sodium hypochlorite.
