Toxicity to terrestrial plants
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
Alcohols, C9-C11, branched is a non-polar narcotic, therefore, the application of EqP Theory is appropriate. In addition, plants are generally less sensitive than other terrestrial animal species (Sverdrup, et.al., 2002).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
Feasibility of performing a toxicity study with terrestrial plants has some practical difficulties associated with it due to the rapid biodegradability of Alcohols, C9 -C11, branched. Data on other alcohols (isopropyl alcohol) indicate aquatic organisms have similar sensitivity consistent with narcotic mode of action. This substance is a non-polar narcotic, therefore, the application of EqP Theory is appropriate. In addition, plants are generally less sensitive than other terrestrial animal species (Sverdrup, et.al., 2002).
