SECTION 12: Ecological information
12.1. Toxicity
12.1.1.Acute aquatic toxicity
The Acute aquatic toxicity database on zinc contains data on 11 standard species obtained under standard testing
conditions at different pH and hardness. Since the transformation/dissolution of zinc metal is dependent on pH, the
available acute aquatic toxicity dataset has also been considered for 2 different pH ranges separately. The full analysis
of these data is given in the CSR.

Supersedes Rev. Nº:13
The reference values for acute aquatic toxicity, based on the lowest observed EC50 values of the corresponding
databases at different pH and expressed as Zn+2 ion concentration are:
 for pH <7: 0.413 mg Zn+2/L (48 hr - Ceriodaphnia dubia test according to US EPA 821-R-02-012 standard test
protocol)
 for pH >7-8.5: 0.136 mg Zn+2/L (72 hr - Selenastrum capricornutum (=Pseudokircherniella subcapitata) test according
to OECD 201 standard protocol)
As demonstrated by transformation/dissolution (T/D) testing according to OECD guidelines, zinc oxide is less soluble,
as compared to soluble zinc compounds. Applying the molecular weight correction and the results of the T/D testing
(CSR), the specific reference values for acute aquatic toxicity of zinc oxide are:
For zinc oxide (based on 62% solubilisation capacity on finest powders at most conservative loading of 1 mg/L at pH 8
(RA zinc oxide, ECB 2008), and a ZnO/Zn molecular weight ratio of 1.24):
 for pH <7: 0.83 mg Zn/L (based on 48 hr Ceriodaphnia dubia test cfr above)
 for pH >7-8.5: 0.27 mg Zn/L (based on 72 hr Selenastrum capricornutum test cfr above)
12.1.2. Chronic aquatic toxicity: freshwater
The chronic aquatic toxicity database on zinc contains high quality chronic NOEC/EC10 values on 23 species (8
taxonomic groups) obtained under a variety of conditions. These data, outlined in the CSR, were compiled in a species
sensitivity distribution, from which the PNEC was derived (expressed as Zn +2ion concentration). This PNEC is an added
value, i.e. it is to be added to the zinc background in water, see table below.
12.1.3. Chronic aquatic toxicity: marine waters
The chronic aquatic toxicity database on zinc contains high quality chronic NOEC/EC10 values on 39 species (9
taxonomic groups) obtained under a variety of conditions. These data, outlined in the CSR, were compiled in a species
sensitivity distribution, from which the PNEC was derived (expressed as Zn +2ion concentration). This PNEC is an added
value, to be added on the zinc background in water, see table below.
12.1.4. Sediment toxicity
The chronic toxicity of zinc to sediment organisms in the freshwater was assessed based on a database containing
high quality chronic NOEC/EC10 values on 7 benthic species obtained under a variety of conditions. These data,
outlined in the CSR, were compiled in a species sensitivity distribution, from which the PNEC was derived (expressed
as total Zn contained in the sediment). This PNEC is an added value, to be added on the zinc background in the
sediment, see table below. For the marine sediments, a PNEC was derived using the equilibrium partitioning approach,
see table below.
12.1.5. Soil toxicity
The chronic toxicity of zinc to soil organisms was assessed based on a database containing high quality chronic
NOEC/EC10 values on 18 plant species, 8 invertebrate species and 17 microbioal processes, obtained under a variety
of conditions. These data, outlined in the CSR, were compiled in a species sensitivity distribution, from which the PNEC
was derived (expressed as total Zn contained in the soil). This PNEC is an added value, to be added on the zinc
background in the soil, see table below.
12.1.6. Toxicity to micro-organisms in STP
The PNEC for STP was derived by applying an assessment factor to the lowest relevant toxicity value: 5.2mg Zn/L

**A generic bioavailability factor of 0.5 is applied by default, according to the EU risk assessment (ECB 2008)
*** A generic bioavailability/ageing factor of 3 is applied by default (ECB 2008).
12.2. Persistence and biodegradability
Zinc is an element, and as such the criterion “persistence” is not relevant for the metal and its inorganic compounds in
a way as it is applied to organic substances. An analysis on the removal of zinc from the water column has been
presented as a surrogate for persistence. The rapid removal of zinc from the water column is documented in the CSR.
So, zinc and zinc compounds do not meet this criterion, neither.
12.3. Bioaccumulative potential
Zinc is a natural, essential element, which is needed for the optimal growth and development of all living organisms,

including man. All living organisms have homeostasis mechanisms that actively regulate zinc uptake and
absorption/excretion from the body; due to this regulation, zinc and zinc compounds do not bioaccumulate or
biomagnify.
12.4. Mobility in soils
For zinc (like for other metals) the transport and distribution over the different environmental compartments e.g. the
water (dissolved fraction, fraction bound to suspended matter), soil (fraction bound or complexed to the soil particles,
fraction in the soil pore water,...) is described and quantified by the metal partition coefficients between these different
fractions. In the CSR, a solids-water partitioning coefficient of 158.5 l/kg (log value 2.2) was applied for zinc in soils
(CSR zinc 2010).
12.5. Results of PBT and vPvB assessment
Considering the items 12.2. and 12.3. above, zinc and zinc compounds are not PBT or vPvB.
12.6. Other adverse effects
