Toxicity to terrestrial plants

Description of key information
The performance of a test for toxicity to terrestrial plants is scientifically unjustified. REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex IX, section 9.4, column 2, states as follows: “9.4: Effects on terrestrial organisms: These studies do not need to be conducted if direct and indirect exposure of the soil compartment is unlikely.” Direct and indirect exposure of the long-chain alkyl acrylate esters (C18-C22) to soil is highly unlikely. The acrylate esters are biodegradable under enhanced conditins and therefore will not persist in soil. Furthermore, an indirect exposure to soil via sewage sludge transfer is unlikely. In addition, no direct releases to soil from point sources are known. Thus, toxicity to terrestrial plants was considered scientifically not justified.

Additional information
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.
