Description of key information
2-(2-aminoethoxy)ethanol (CAS 929-06-6) is acutely not harmful to algae.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 202 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 23.3 mg/L
Additional information
In a non-GLP, 72-hour static test with the green alga Scenedesmus subspicatus ( new name: Desmodesmus subspicatus) according to German Industrial Standard DIN 38412 part 9, the algae toxicity of 2-(2-aminoethoxy)ethanol was investigated. Statistical evaluation of the endpoint growth rate revealed an EC50 (72h) of 202 mg/L, the NOEC was estimated to be 62.5 mg/L. Moreover, a read-across analysis was performed with QSAR Toolbox v4.4. The 72 -h EC10 was determined to be 23.3 mg/L (BASF SE, 2021).
Overall, it can be concluded that 2-(2-aminoethoxy)ethanol (CAS 929-06-6) is with high probability acutely not harmful to algae.
