Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Additional information

According to Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex IX, Column 2, 9.1.6, the testing of the long-term toxicity to fish is not required.

Experimental data on the long-term toxicity of Amides, C18, branched and linear to fish are not available. The chemical safety assessment according to Annex I of Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 does not indicate the need to investigate further the long-term toxicity to fish.

According to the Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.7b: Endpoint specific guidance, R.7.8.5.3 (ECHA, 2014), long-term testing of fish should only be conducted if it represents the most sensitive taxonomic group. The guidance states that if aquatic invertebrates are likely to be more sensitive than fish and algae or the relative sensitivity of invertebrates cannot be predicted, long-term testing on Daphnia sp. should be preferred instead of fish. The available acute toxicity test indicates no toxic effects to fish and a long-term toxicity study on Daphnia magna is available. The test according to OECD guideline 211 reported a NOEC ≥ 100 mg/L (nominal). Based on the measured test substance concentration a NOEC ≥ 0.0038 mg/L was determined.
