EC number: 269-822-7 | CAS number: 68334-30-5 A complex combination of hydrocarbons produced by the distillation of crude oil. It consists of hydrocarbons having carbon numbers predominantly in the range of C9 through C20 and boiling in the range of approximately 163°C to 357°C (325°F to 675°F).

Results and discussion
Effect concentrations
- Duration:
- 96 h
- Dose descriptor:
- LL50
- Effect conc.:
- ca. 21 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Remarks on result:
- other: 95% Confidence interval of 12 – 40 mg/l based on nominal loading rates
Any other information on results incl. tables
- Sublethal observations / clinical signs:
Mortality at 96 hrs was 1, 0, 0, 6, and 7 in the 0, 3, 10, 30, and 100 mg/l treatments. Only four concentrations were tested which is less than a minimum of five concentrations stated in the guidelines. Water hardness was higher than targeted range of 50 - 250 mg/l as CaCO3. Hardness range of 264 - 288 mg/l as CaCO3 is normal for this laboratory and does not adversely affect the health of the fish. Analytical method used was gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Mean reduction in the concentration of dissolved hydrocarbons during the test was 26% (range 9 - 42%).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
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.
