Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Short-term studies with Sorbitan monolaurate, ethoxylated (CAS No. 9005-64-5) are available for fish and algae. For daphnia, a long-term study is available. According to column 2 of Annex VIII 9.2.2.1 of Regulation (EC) No1907/2006, a short-term study with aquatic invertebrates is not required if a long-term study is available. The acute EL50 values were >100 mg/L and 58.8 mg/L for fish and algae, respectively. For algae an ErL10 of 19.1 mg/L was obtained, and for the chronic daphnia study a NOELR of 10 mg/L. Based on the available data, daphnia is thus the most sensitive organism. Fish was the least sensitive of the tested organisms, and a long term fish study is, therefore, not considered necessary. The toxicity of Sorbitan monolaurate, ethoxylated to activated sludge microorganisms was tested in the toxicity control of the ready biodegradation study. No effect on the activated sludge was observed.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
