Description of key information
Additional information
The available reliable ecotoxicity results selected for the effect of vanadium on aquatic organisms are all based on pentavalent V substances (NaVO3, NH4VO3, Na3VO4, V2O5 and ammonium polyvandate). All data were reported based on dissolved elemental V concentrations. The data available do not allow conclusions on the effect of water properties (pH, hardness, etc.) or V substance on toxicity of vanadium to aquatic organisms. Therefore, all reliable toxicity data for all V substances, expressed on a dissolved vanadium basis, were grouped.
The table below presents an overview of the lowest reliable toxicity data selected for hazard assessment of vanadium.
Trophic level | Substance | Species | Parameter | Endpoint | Value(µg V/L) | Reference |
Acute toxicity, freshwater | ||||||
Fish | V2O5 | Leuciscus idus | mortality | 96-h LC50 | 693 | Mitterer, 1999 |
Invertebrates | V2O5 | Daphnia magna | mortality | 48-h LC50 | 1520 | Kimball, 1978 |
Algae | V2O5 | Scenedesmus subspicatus | growth rate | 72-h EC50 | 2907 | Mitterer, 1999 |
Acute toxicity, marine water | ||||||
Fish | NH4VO3 |
Limanda limanda | mortality | 96 -h LC50 | 27800 | Taylor et al., 1985 |

Reliable short-term toxicity data for freshwater organisms are available for three trophic levels: aquatic invertebrates, fish and algae. The lowest acute effect value was a 96 -h LC50 of 693 µg V/L observed for the effect of V2O5 flakes on mortality of the fish Leuciscus idus. Acute toxicity data are also available for marine fish and invertebrates, with the lowest acute effect 48-h LC50 value of 13300 µg V/L for the mysid shrimp Americamysis bahia. Reliable long-term toxicity data are available for 6 freshwater organisms covering the three trophic levels. The lowest chronic NOEC or EC10, 76 µg V/L, was observed for the effect of V2O5 in a 30-day growth test with second generation flagfish larvae (Jordanella floridae) originating from exposed fish. Reliable long-term toxicity data are also available for the effect of V2O5 on the development of eggs from two marine organisms (mollusc Crassostrea gigas and echinoderm Paracentrotus lividus). The NOEC values varied between 25 and 50 µg V/L with the lowest value observed for a 48-h development test of Crassostrea gigas eggs.
There are insufficient data for calculation of a PNECwater with the statistical extrapolation approach (species sensitivity distribution, SSD). For the implementation of the SSD-methodology, the effects dataset should contain reliable chronic no-effect levels (NOEC/EC10-values) for at least 10 to 15 species, representing at least 8 different taxonomic groups. Reliable long-term toxicity data are only available for 6 freshwater organisms covering three trophic levels: aquatic invertebrates (Daphnia magna), fish (Jordanella floridae,Pimephales promelas,Poecilia reticulataandClarias batrachus) and algae (Scenedesmus subspicatus).
