Predicted Environmental Concentration (PEC)
PEC is calculated according to the following formula:
PEC (µg/L) |
= |
(A*109*(100-R))/(365*P*V*D*100) = 1.37*10-6*A*(100-R) |
PEC |
= |
0.0020092667 µg/L |
Where: | ||
A |
= |
total actual API sales in Sweden for the most recent year 14.66618 kg (total sold amount API in the most recent sales data for Sweden (2021) was distributed by IQVIA in 2022) |
R |
= |
0 |
P |
= |
number of inhabitants in Sweden = 10 *106 |
V (L/day) |
= |
volume of wastewater per capita and day = 200 (ECHA default) (Reference I) |
D |
= |
factor for dilution of wastewater by surface water flow = 10 (ECHA default) (Reference I) |
Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC)
Ecotoxicological studies
Algae (Selenastrum capricornutum) (guideline e.g. OECD 201) [Reference II]
EC50 72 h (Inhibition of growth) = 26 mg/L
Crustacean (Daphnia magna) (water-flea):
Acute toxicity
EC50 48 h (Immobilization) = 6 mg/L (FDA 4.08) [Reference III]:
Chronic toxicity
Not available
Fish:
Acute toxicity
Lepomis macrochirus (Bluegill sunfish)
LC50 96 h (Survival) = 5.8 mg/L (FDA 4.11) [Reference IV]
Chronic toxicity
Not available
Other ecotoxicity data:
Toxicity to activated sludge in a respiration inhibition test according to guideline e.g. OECD 209 [Reference V]:
EC50 3 h > 1000 mg/L
NOEC = 47 mg/L
PNEC (µg/l) = lowest EC50/1000, where 1000 is the assessment factor used. EC50 for the Bluegill sunfish 5.8 mg/L has been used for this calculation since it is the most sensitive of the three tested species.
PNEC = 5.8 mg/L/1000 = 5.8 µg/L
Environmental risk classification (PEC/PNEC ratio)
PEC/PNEC = 0.0020092667 µg/L /5.8 µg/L = 0.000346425 i.e. PEC/PNEC ≤ 0.1
i.e. PEC/PNEC ≤ 0.1 which justifies the phrase “Use of Risperidone has been considered to result in insignificant environmental risk.
Degradation
Biotic degradation
Ready degradability:
Biodegradability in a CO2-evolution test according to FDA 3.11 [Reference VI]:
Based on the measurements of CO2 produced and DOC analysis, the percentage biodegradation calculated for Risperidone was 5%.
Based on the measurements of CO2 produced and DOC analysis, the percentage biodegradation calculated for the reference substance glucose was > 60%. Consequently, it can be concluded that Risperidone is not readily biodegradable.
Result: Risperidone is potentially persistent.
Inherent degradability: -
Simulation studies: -
Abiotic degradation
Hydrolysis: -
Photolysis: -
Bioaccumulation
Partition coefficient octanol/water:
Partition coefficient octanol/water was determined with the shaking flask method [Reference VII]:
The average apparent partition coefficient (total solute measured, regardless of from) of R064766 in 1-octanol/aqueous solution at 25°C as determined by UV spectrometry is:
• in 1-octanol/buffer pH 5: log P = 0.22
• in 1-octanol/buffer pH 7: log P = 1.67
• in 1-octanol/buffer pH 9: log P = 2.91
Bioconcentration factor (BCF): -
Since log Kow (at pH 7) < 4, Risperidone has low potential for bioaccumulation.
