Phototransformation in soil
Administrative data
- Endpoint:
- phototransformation in soil
- Type of information:
- migrated information: read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- other information
- Reliability:
- 3 (not reliable)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- other: Unsuitable test system. In aqueous solution, Chlorhexidine digluconate dissociates to the chlorhexidine base and the gluconate.Therefore the information obatined with Chlorhexidine digluconate is relevant for the assessment of Chlorhexidine base.
