Description of key information
DIglycerol was not tested itself, but polyglycerol was tested in a short term toxicity study to fish (Poecilia reticulata).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Fresh water fish
Fresh water fish
- Effect concentration:
- 1 000 mg/L
Additional information
Diglycerol was not tested itself, however, the acute toxicity of Polyglycerol-3 (read across substance partly consisting of diglycerol, see read across report in section 13 of IUCLID) to guppies (Poecilia reticulata) was tested in a limit test at nominal concentrations of 1000 and 0 mg/l according to OECD test guidelin 203. Two test aquariums were used per concentration and each aquarium contained 10 fishes. Mortality of the fish was recorded after 3, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. There were no effects on behaviour of the fish caused by Polyglycerol-3. The measured concentrations were in agreement with the nominal. The concentrations remained constant during the test. Based on the results of this study, the LC50 after 96 hours is higher than 1000 mg/l.
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).
