Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
no
Conclusions:
ECOSAR Version 1.11 predicts EC50 (96h) (Green Algae) = 0.895 mg/L .
But the water solubility predicted is 0.3419 mg/L, which is < 0.895 mg/L. So normally, none toxic effects should be observed to Green Algae.
In addition, the chemical is predicted to be ready biodegradable.
