Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Additional information
According to REACH Regulation (Annex IX, 9.3.2, column II), test for bioaccumulation in aquatic species does not need to be conducted as the substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation.
Insolubility of the test substance and its rapid biotic degradation in water leads to negligibly low concentrations of Stearic acid, esters with methyl α-D-glucoside in the aquatic environment and thus to insignificant concentrations in aquatic organisms.
In connection with readily biodegradability of the substance, it can be concluded that Stearic acid, esters with methyl α-D-glucoside is supposed to be not biologically available in the aquatic compartment and it can be assumed that bioaccumulation in aquatic species is negligible.
In addition, readily biodegradable chemicals generally have a higher probability of being metabolised. In a case of ester fission the Stearic acid, esters with methyl α-D-glucoside, consisting of α-methyl glucose and fatty acid chains, is likely to be rapidly metabolised in organisms.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
