Additional information
One experimental study is available investigating the ready biodegradability of the substance (Hammesfahr, 2016). The study was performed according to the OECD guideline 301 F and GLP. A non-adapted, activated sludge from a domestic sewage treatment plant was used as inoculum and was exposed to an initial test substance concentration of 101.8 mg/L. As the substance contains nitrogen, the evaluation of biodegradation was converted to ThODNH4 and ThODNO3 values. After 28 days test duration, 89% and 78% degradation of the test substance (according to O2 consumption) was observed based on ThODNH4 and ThODNO3, respectively. The 10-day window criterion was fulfilled. A toxicity control containing both, reference substance (sodium benzoate) and test substance did not indicate inhibitory effects to the inoculum (ThODNH4: 67% and ThODNO3: 62% degradation after 14 d).
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.
