Reference
Endpoint:
bioaccumulation in aquatic species: fish
Data waiving:
study scientifically not necessary / other information available
Justification for data waiving:
the study does not need to be conducted because the substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation based on log Kow <=3
Justification for type of information:
In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex IX, information requirement section 9.3.2, this study does not need to be conducted if the substance has a low potential for bioaccumulation. The Log Pow of the test material has been derived from three independent studies. In all cases, the Log Pow obtained was well below 4.5 (Log Pow at pH 7: -0.19, -0.391, -0.23, respectively) and as such is deemed to have low potential for bioaccumulation and further testing is not considered necessary.
