Toxic to aquatic life with long lasting effects. Toxicity to fish: LC50 (96 h) 20,4 mg/l, Cyprinus carpio Aquatic invertebrates: EC50 (48 h) 15,5 mg/l, Daphnia magna (OECD Guideline 202, part 1) Aquatic plants: EC50 (72 h) > 100 mg/l (growth rate), Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata EC50 (168 h) 0,144 mg/l Chronic toxicity to fish: EC10 (28 d) 6,66 mg/l, Oncorhynchus mykiss Chronic toxicity to aquatic invertebrates: No observed effect concentration (21 d) 0,78 mg/l, Daphnia magna The product has not been tested. The statement has been derived from substances/products of a similar structure or composition.

๐ŸŒฑ Assessment biodegradation and elimination (H2O)

The product has not been tested. The statement has been derived from the properties of the individual components. Information on: cycloxydim (ISO); 2-(N-ethoxybutanimidoyl)-3-hydroxy-5-(tetrahydro-2H-thiopyran-3-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one Assessment biodegradation and elimination (H2O): Not readily biodegradable (by OECD criteria).

๐ŸŒฑ Assessment bioaccumulation potential

The product has not been tested. The statement has been derived from the properties of the individual components. Bioaccumulation potential: Because of the n-octanol/water distribution coefficient (log Pow) accumulation in organisms is not to be expected.

๐ŸŒฑ Assessment transport between environmental compartments

Volatility: The product has not been tested. The statement has been derived from the properties of the individual components. Information on: cycloxydim (ISO); 2-(N-ethoxybutanimidoyl)-3-hydroxy-5-(tetrahydro-2H-thiopyran-3-yl)cyclohex-2-en-1-one Assessment transport between environmental compartments: Adsorption in soil: Following exposure to soil, the product trickles away and can - dependant on degradation - be transported to deeper soil areas with larger water loads.

๐ŸŒฑ Results of PBT and vPvB assessment

The product does not contain a substance fulfilling the PBT (persistent/bioaccumulative/toxic) criteria or the vPvB (very persistent/very bioaccumulative) criteria.

๐ŸŒฑ Other adverse effects

The product does not contain substances that are listed in the Montreal Protocol on substances that deplete the ozone layer.
