Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Reference
Endpoint:
long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates
Type of information:
other: Expert assessment
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Expert assessment
Justification for type of information:
Based on the available information from the chemical safety assessment for the substance, no further risk to fish is identified. Therefore, long term toxicity testing in fish is not required in accordance with column 2 of Annex IX of REACH (see attached report).
Principles of method if other than guideline:
An assessment was performed.
Key result
Remarks on result:
other: An assessment was performed. See attached report
Executive summary:

There is no long-term toxicity data available on the registered substance for invertebrates. Therefore, considerations are primarily based on the short-term toxicity data available. Following conclusions can be drawn from the available studies and chemical safety assessment performed for the substance:



1. The substance as well as the source substances used to support the data requirements are highly soluble in water; therefore, all the available short term toxicity testing data in the dossier are considered appropriate for risk assessment
2. For all exposure scenarios available in dossier, the ratio of PEC to PNEC was <1; therefore, no further risk to invertebrates is identified as a result of chemical safety assessment
3. The partition coefficient of the substance is very low (Log Kow is -0.43) and PEClocal as well as PECregional for all exposure scenarios are very low (<1/1000th of the water solubility)
Based on the available information from the chemical safety assessment for the substance, no further risk to invertebrates is identified. Therefore, long term toxicity testing in invertebrates is not required in accordance with column 2 of Annex IX of REACH.

Description of key information

This study is considered to be unjustified. In accordance with REACH Annex IX, long-term toxicity testing is not necessary as the chemical safety assessment according to Annex I indicates no further need to investigate the effects on aquatic organisms (see attached justification). 

Key value for chemical safety assessment
