The above predicted data of traget chemical is supported by the experimental study ofstructurally similar read acrossSodium dodecane-1-sulphonate(CAS: 2386-53-0) from publication Water Research 1978, suggests that the

Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates test was carried out for24 Hourto study the Sodium dodecane-1-sulphonate on aquatic invertebrate. Mobility effect was measured during the test. Effective concentration EC50 to 50% of 5 Daphnia magna at 24 hrs IS 220 mg/l. It can be concluded that the Sodium dodecane-1-sulphonate is not toxic to the aquatic invertebrate.

Similar supporting experimental study for anotherstructurally similar read acrossε-caprolactam (CAS:105-60-2) from J-Check (Japan Chemical Collaborative Knowledge Database) indicates that the Short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates test was carried out according to the OECD Guideline 202 (Daphnia sp.
