Page Carcinogenicity: Teratogenicity: Specific target organ toxicity (STOT): Additional toxicological information: Ecological Information Aquatic Toxicity Fish toxicity: Daphnia toxicity: Bacteria toxicity: Algae toxicity: Persistency and Degradability Bioaccumulation Mobility Results of PBT- und vpvp Assessment Other Adverse Effects Water hazard class: Behaviour in sewage systems: Further ecological effects: No relevant data found. No specific target organic toxicity available according to EC Regulation 1272/2008. Aspiration hazard: Data are not experimentally disclosed. The Fe2+ ion is not stabil under standard test conditions, it oxidizes to the Fe3+ ion. Unsoluble Iron(III)-hydroxid Fe(OH)3 are formed at a high rate from the Fe3+ salts, thus withdrawing the Fe2+ from the testing system. Iron is an important substance in biological processes, the iron homeostasis is strictly controlled. This shows that iron is not toxic for the aquatic environment. Method is for inorganic substances. No bioaccumulation expected. The product is not mobile in the soil. Inorganic substance: does not comply with the criteria for the classification as PBT or vpvb. 1 (German Regulation) (Assessment by list): slightly hazardous. Iron sulfate hydrolyses forming iron hydrate and diluted sulfuric acid. Both are ecologically harmless. AOX Value: < 2 mg/kg 9
