Details on test conditions:
TEST SYSTEM
- Type, material and volume of test flasks, other equipment used: 5 mL autosampler vials (tightly closed) incubated in a thermostatic bacth
- Measures taken to avoid photolytic effects: darkness

TEST MEDIUM
- Volume used/treatment: 5 mL
- Preparation of test medium: Three test solutions, buffered to pH values of 4,7 and 9, each with a ZK 12 126 concentration of approx. 1 mg/L, were prepared by adding a stock solution of ZK 12126 in acetonitrile to the corresponding buffer solution which had been equilibrated at 50 °C for one hour followed by purging with nitrogen to remove dissolved oxygen. All experiments were conducted using sterilized equipment and buffer solutions.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
No hydrolytic degradation was observed within 5 days at pH 4 and 7 at 50 ± 0.1 °C. Less than 10 % hydrolysis occured at pH 9 at pH 4 and 7 within 5 days at 50 ± 0.1 °C.
Executive summary:

ZK 12126 is hydrolytically stable at pH 4, 7 and 9 and 25 °C (DT50 > 1 yr) .
