- REMARKS for section "% Degradation of test substance":
ThOD for reference substance (aniline) calculated using:
C6H7N + 7O2 -> 6CO2 + 2H20 + NH3, 2.41 mg O2/mg reference substance (does not consider nitrification)
ThOD for test substance calculated according to MITI method using:
C9H5OF15 + (39/4)O2 -> 9CO2 + (5/2)H2O + 15F, 0.75 mg O2/mg test substance
Study report included ThOD for test substance calculated according to OECD method using:
C9H5OF15 + 6O2 -> 9CO2 + 5H2O + 15HF, 0.46 mg O2/mg test substance
Calculations were performed using the MITI ThOD value. From the degradability results based on the BOD and the residual test substance concentration, it is concluded that the test substance was not readily biodegradable and was not transformed under the conditions of the Closed Bottle Test.
DETAILS ON RESULTS :
- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: None
- Effect concentrations exceeding solubility of substance in test medium: Solubility reported as <1 ppm, test substance incorporated in to medium at 9.13 ppm

Applicant's summary and conclusion

- Interpretation of results:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
- Conclusions:
- CAS# 297730-93-9 was not readily biodegradable under test conditions.
- Executive summary:
The ready biodegradability of CAS# 297730-93-9 was studied in a 28-day closed bottle test according to OECD method 301D. Secondary effluent of a domestic sewage treatment plant was used as a source of inoculum. BOD bottles were filled with oxygen-saturated medium and spiked with either CAS# 297730-93-9 at 9.13 mg/L (ThOD, 0.75 mg O2/mg), aniline at 2.00 mg/L (reference substance, ThOD, 2.41 mg O2/mg), or no additional substance (inoculum blank). Additional BOD bottles were filled with oxygen-saturated ultrapure water and spiked with CAS# 297730-93-9 at 9.13 mg/L (abiotic control). Dissolved oxygen concentration was measured at seven-day intervals from test initiation (Day 0) to termination (Day 28). pH was measured in bottles after DO measurements were taken on Days 0 and 28 only. Additional BOD bottles were extracted with chloroform for gas chromatographic analysis (GC) of CAS# 297730-93-9 on Days 0 and 28 only (one inoculum blank on day 0, two each of CAS# 297730-93-9 and abiotic controls on Days 0 and 28). The 28-day biodegradation according to oxygen depletion (100% * BOD/ThOD) was 1%. The 28-day depletion of CAS# 297730-93-9 was 0-1% by GC. The reference substance was completely degraded on Day 28. Based on these data, CAS# 297730-93-9 was not readily biodegradable was not transformed under the conditions of the Closed Bottle Test.
This study is classified as acceptable and satisfies the guideline requirements for test method OECD301, closed bottle ready biodegradability test.
