Executive summary:

The hydrolysis of Amphopropionate C8 at 1000 mg a.i./L was studied at 50ºC in sterile aqueous buffered solutions at pH 4 (acetate buffer), pH 7 (phosphate buffer) and pH 9 (borate buffer) for 5 days.  The experiment was conducted in accordance with EU method C.7 (1992). Samples were analysed by HPLC at 0 h, 2.4 h and 5 d.  In a preliminary test the decrease in concentration of the test substance was measured at pH 4.0, 7.0 and 9.0. Since the decrease in concentration was below 10% after 5 days, no further testing was necessary.

The half-life of Amphopropionate C8 at 25°C, pH 4, 7 and 9 is >1 year.
