Description of key information

Additional information
Toxicity to microorganisms has been investigated in an activated sludge respiration inhibition test according to OECD test methods. 4 –MHHPA caused a concentration related inhibition ranging from 14% at 58 mg/L to 99% at 1000 mg/L. The EC50 was 219 (189 – 248) mg/L with concentrations of 95.3 mg/L and below causing less that 20% inhibition and regarded as not toxic to microorganisms of a municipal sewage treatment plant. EC10, estimated from reported EC20, EC50 and EC80 values, was approximately 70 mg/L. Effects or pH on inhibition were examined and found to be the major factor in determining effects, a concentration of 1000 mg/L causing <20% inhibition when pH was adjusted back to neutral.
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).
