Description of key information
The substance is readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
The biodegradation of the test substance was determined in a study according to the protocol "Biodegradation Study of Chemicals" as described in "About Test Methods for New Chemical Substances" (Kanpogyo Notification No. 5, Yakuhatsu Notification No. 615, and 49 Kikyoku Notification No. 392) (Niigata Reasearch Laboratory, 1982). In this study sludge received from the Chemical Biotesting Center was inoculated with 100 mg/L test substance for 14 days. Biodegradation rates of 83.4 -86.1% were reported based on oxygen demand and TOC removal, respectively. Based on these findings the substance is assessed to be readily biodegradable
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.
