Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

When comparing the results of the study with EDTA-CuNa2 with repeated dose studies of other metal chelates (see read across document in section 13), it was concluded that EDTA-CuNa2 was slightly more toxic (LOAEL of 150 mg/kg bw) than the other metal chelates (NOAELs >= 500 mg/kg bw). In addition, it was also concluded, based on the limited effects observed at 150 mg/kg bw, the NOAEL would be close to 150 mg/kg bw. The same is expected for EDTA-CuK2.


 

Justification for classification or non-classification

Because in the subchronic study with EDTA-CuNa2, effects were limited at a dose level of 150 mg/kg bw, no classification is needed for STOT repeated exposure.
