Description of key information

A long term study in fish is waived.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

A long term study in fish is not considered warranted because the 21-day daphnid study covers the complete life-cycle of a sensitive freshwater organism and thereby adequately captures the long term aquatic toxicity potential.

Based on acute data on this substance significant acute toxicity in aquatic organisms is considered unlikely. Similarly, based on chronic data on this substance significant chronic toxicity in aquatic organisms is considered unlikely. Data demonstrates that this material does not meet the criterion for toxicity.

Based on the available acute and chronic toxicity data in algae, daphnids, and fish for the substance, this substance is considered unlikely to have significant effects on aquatic organisms in short and long term scenarios and data demonstrate that this material does not meet the criterion for toxicity, so no long term toxicity to fish is waived.
