Additional information
According to OECD guideline tests, no adverse effects have been observed in short term studies for fish, daphnia, algae and microorganisms at the highest recommended concentrations tested. No adverse effects have been observed in a long term study for Daphnia at the highest concentration tested. This indicates that no hazard has been identified and a PNEC cannot be derived (ECHA Guidance B, Hazard assessment, August 2011).
Conclusion on classification
The substance needs not to be classified according to Directive 67/548/EEC. It is assessed to be not a PBT or vPvB. According to GHS Regulation EC No 1272/2008, formamidopropyl betaine needs not to be classified as hazardous to the aquatic environment and needs not to be classified as hazardous to the ozone layer. Therefore, according to REACH Regulation, Article 14 (4a) an exposure assessment needs not to be performed.
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.
