Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
OECD guideline studies are available that describe the acute toxicity of vinylcyclohexane to aquatic freshwater organisms (fish, aquatic invertebrates, algae and microorganisms). All studies were conducted according to GLP.
The most sensitive organism tested was the algae Raphidocelis subcapitata (ErC50 (72 h) = 49 µg a.i./L, measured concentration). The 72-hr NOEC was 35 µg/L.
The acute immobilization test with Daphnia magna revealed a 48 h EC50 of 965 µg/L based on the geometric mean of measured concentrations and a 48-hr NOEC of 402 µg/L.
Fish (Danio rerio) was tested according to the threshold approach described in the OECD Series on Testing Assessment No. 126. The 96-h NOEC for D. rerio is ≥ 231 µg/L. Thus, D. rerio is less sensitive to vinylcyclohexane compared to R. subcapitata.
No effects on microorganisms od sewage sludge were observed at a concentration of 100 mg/L nominal after 3-h exposure.
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.
