Results and discussion
Any other information on results incl. tables
The results of this publications mentioned that the acrylic acid concentrations which were found in ouster culture sea water (Brown et al. 1997), in the mantle of scallops (Kodoma and Ogata 1983), in crustaceae and in the gastrointestinal tracts of penguins (Sieburth 1960) were caused by algae of the marine phytoplankton which are part of the food chain of this organisms.
For example, the free acrylic acid content of the marine alga Phaecystis can be 7.4 % dw (Sieburth 1960).
Applicant's summary and conclusion
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.
