Description of key information
A study was performed to assess the chronic toxicity of dibenzoyl peroxide to Daphnia magna (Sacker, 2015). The method followed was designed to be compatible with the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (2012) No 211, "Daphnia magna Reproduction Test" and the GLP requirements. Daphnia magna were exposed (10 replicates of a single daphnid per group) to solutions of the test item at nominal concentrations of 3.2, 5.6, 10, 18 and 32% v/v saturated solution for a period of 21 days. The test solutions were renewed daily throughout the test. It was considered appropriate to calculate the results based on the time-weighted mean measured test concentration only in order to result in a "worst case" analysis of the data. Validity criteria were fulfilled. Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item after 21 days of exposure resulted in an EC10 (reproduction) equal to 0.001 mg/L based on the time-weighted mean measured test concentrations.

Additional information
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.
