Description of key information
The information regarding the potssium hydrogen oxalate has been provided by read-across from oxalic acid.The algae Microcystis aeruginosa was exposed to oxalic acid during 8 d according to the cell multiplication inhibition test. A 8 d toxicity threshold of 80 mg/l was determined.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
In a similar experimental design a 8 d toxicity threshold (defined as the onset of cell multiplication inhibition in each case) of 80 mg/l was determined for the algae Microcystis aeruginosa and a 7 d toxicity threshold of 790 mg/l for the algae Scenedesmus quadricauda . The species with the lowest toxicity threshold of 80 mg/l was selected.
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.
