Note: * = asterisk designates: Chemical may not be soluble enough to measure this predicted effect. If the effect level exceeds the water solubility by 10X, typically no effects at saturation (NES) are reported.
Chronic Value (ChV) definition:
------------------------------
The ChV, or Chronic Value, is defined as the geometric mean of the no observed effect concentration (NOEC) and the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC). One way to represent the ChV value mathematically is:
ChV = 10^([log (LOEC x NOEC)]/2)
According to the ECHA “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment” Chapter R.10, the MATC (Maximal Acceptable Toxicant Concentration) is defined as equivalent to the above ChV.
If in the test report only the MATC is presented, the MATC can be divided by √2 to derive a NOEC.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The ECOSAR model is a reliable and appropriate QSAR model to apply to diethyl succinate, as it is based on a chemical dataset that calculates the toxicity of imides, which exhibit excess toxicity in addition to narcosis.
The predicted short-term (96-h) toxicity LC50 for fish is 52.2 mg/L. - Executive summary:
On test material, the predicted short-term (96-h) toxicity LC50 for fish is 52.2 mg/L.
