Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
Based on the evaluation of existing data and based on the estimation by EPIWIN, the substance is considered not readily biodegradable.
Additional information
According to OECD guideline 302B, no biodegradation of Direct Red 23 (DR23) based on CO2 evolution and calculated as % ThCO2 was observed in the Clariant key study (Clariant, 2007), where less than 20% degradation was attained after 28 days of contact time. This outcome was confirmed by the result of the second Clariant key study of 2002 (Clariant, 2002).
Further supporting studies on DR23 (Boruta, 1995) and on a similar azo-dye (Ciba, 1992 on Direct Red 262) support the conclusion that DR23 is not ready biodegradable.
Direct exposure of sediment and soil is unlikely; based on CSR and risk management measures reported there is no direct sediment and/or soil exposure.
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.
