Conclusion on classification
Biodegradation: not readily biodegradable: 95% in 28 d (OECD 301B)
Bioaccumulation: The substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation (log Pow < 3).
Aquatic short-term toxicity
96h, LC50 for Pimephales promelas: 29 mg/L (OECD 203); for Cyprinodon variegatus: 4.1 mg/L (ASTM E-35 1980)
48h, EC50 for Ceriodaphnia dubia: 5.55 mg/L (OECD 202); for Artemia salina: 3.15 mg/L (acute toxicity test)
72h, EC50 (Desmodesmus subspicatus): > 120 mg/L (DIN 38412, part 9)
Aquatic long-term toxicity
42d, NOEC for Pimephales promelas: >= 1.36 mg/L (42d flow-through test)
7d, NOEC for Ceriodaphnia dubia: 0.88 mg/L (EPA-600/489/001)
72h, NOEC for Desmodesmus subspicatus: 30 mg/L (DIN 38412, part 9)
Classification justification according to CLP:
Based on the available data, C12AS Na (CAS 151-21-3) is considered to be rapidly degradable and has low potential for bioaccumulation. The acute aquatic toxicity L(E)C50 are above 1 mg/L for fish, invertebrates and algae. Valid chronic toxicity data are available to fish, invertebrates and algae – the lowest NOEC is 0.88 mg/L (thus in the rage of > 0.1 to < 1 mg/L) for aquatic invertebrates. C12AS Na (CAS 151-21-3) needs to be classified and labeled as environmental hazard Chronic Cat. 3 according to the Regulation (EC) No.1272/2008 (CLP) and the Regulation (EU) No. 286/2011 (2nd ATP).
Classification justification according to DSD:
Based on the available data, C12AS Na (CAS 151-21-3) is considered to be rapidly degradable and has a low potential for bioaccumulation. The acute aquatic toxicity L(E)C50 values are above 1 mg/L for fish, invertebrates and algae. C12AS Na (CAS 151-21-3) does not need to be classified and labeled as environmental hazard according to Directive 67/548/EEC.
