Remarks on result:
other: 95% CI: 583-76327
Details on results:
Due to the identical molecular weight of source and target substance, the effect concentrations for the source substance are also valid for the target substance without further adjustment.
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
In an activated sludge respiration inhibition test according to OECD 209 (2010) with the source substance 1,6-hexane diamine (HMD; CAS No. 124-09-4), nitrification proved to be the most sensitive endpoint (highest test item concentration: 1000 mg/L):
EC50 (3h; total respiration): 1558 mg/L;
EC50 (3h; heterotrophic respiration): >> 1000 mg/L;
EC50 (3h; nitrification): 291 mg/L.
Because of the identical molecular weight, these results are directly applicable to the target substance MPMD.
Executive summary:

The study used as source investigated the STP microorganism toxicity according to OECD TG 209 (2010). The study results of the source compound were considered applicable to the target compound. Justification and applicability of the read-across approach (structural analogue) is outlined in the read-across report in section 13 or find a link in cross reference “assessment report”.
