Reference
Endpoint:
long-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates
Type of information:
calculation (if not (Q)SAR)
Adequacy of study:
key study

according to guideline
Guideline:
other: Modeling database
Principles of method if other than guideline:
ECOSAR estimates log Kow values using the US EPA's KOWWIN Program for aquatic toxicity.Toxicity of a chemical was measured on the basis of similarity of structure to chemicals for which the aquatic toxicity has been previously measured by structure-activity relationships (SARs) program based upon the octanol /water partition coefficient (Kow). Data from ECOSAR class,neutral organics was used.

The estimation methods in EPI Suite™ have been developed by government, academic, and private sector researchers over many years and represent some of the best techniques currently available. The intended application domain of EPI Suite is organic chemicals, and inorganic as well as organometallic chemicals generally can be considered outside the domain.

Conclusions:
On the basis of EPI suite, ECOSAR version 1.1, the NOEC value for long term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates was predicted to be 0.071 mg/l for Dodecanenitrile in 21 days. Based on this value it can be concluded that the substance Dodecanenitrile is considered to be  toxic to aquatic environment and can be consider to be classified in aquatic chronic 2 category as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
Executive summary:

Based on the prediction done by EPI suite, ECOSAR version 1.1, on the basis of similarity of structure to chemicals for which the aquatic toxicity has been previously measured by structure-activity relationships (SARs) program, the NOEC value for long term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates was predicted.

On the basis of this program, the NOEC value for long term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates was predicted to be 0.071 mg/l for Dodecanenitrile in 21 days. Based on this value it can be concluded that the substance Dodecanenitrile is considered to be  toxic to aquatic environment and can be consider to be classified in aquatic chronic 2 category as per the criteria mentioned in CLP regulation.
