yes
Interpretation of results:
not readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
Dihydrothiophene ester sulfoxide is considered to be not readily biodegradable.
Executive summary:

The test item Dihydrothiophene ester sulfoxide was investigated for its ready biodegradability in a manometric respirometry test over a period of 28 days. The biodegradation was followed by the oxygen uptake of the microorganisms during exposure. As a reference item sodium benzoate was tested simultaneously under the same conditions as the test item, and functioned as a procedure control.

102.3 mg/L corresponding to an oxygen demand of about 155.8 mg/L (ThODNH4) and 190.4 mg/L (ThODNO3).

The mean biodegradation at test end after 28 days was 0% (ThODNO3, THODNH4).

Therefore, Dihydrothiophene ester sulfoxide is considered to be not readily biodegradable.
