Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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.

Reference substance:
Reaction mass of L-Glutamic acid, N-(1-oxooctyl)-,sodium salt and N-L-glutamyl-L-glutamic acid, N'-(1-oxooctyl)-,sodium salt
PBT status:
the substance is not PBT / vPvB
Justification:

Data for the definitive conclusion on the PBT or vPvB properties according to the criteria set in Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006, Annex XIII, parts 1 and 2, are not available for all three criteria. Thus, the screening criteria given in the ‘Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment - Chapter R.11: PBT assessment’ (ECHA, 2008) are used as surrogate information to decide whether the substance may potentially fulfil the PBT or vPvB criteria.


Data for structurally related analogue substances were partly used for the assessment of PBT properties (Analogue justification see attachment).


 


Based on the ready biodegradability test results, the substance is not expected to be persistent in the environment, and therefore does not meet the P criterion.


 


Based on the ready biodegradability test results and very low log Kow of -4.231, the substance is considered to have a low bioaccumulation potential and therefore does not meet the Bioaccumulative (B) or very Bioaccumulative (vB) criterion.


 


The substance show aquatic short-term effect values above 100 mg/L and a long-term effect value above (NOEC of Dapnhia) > 1mg/l and is not classified as carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic for reproduction nor is there any evidence of chronic toxicity according to Regulation (EC) No. 1272/2008 (CLP), Regulation (EU) No. 286/2011 (2nd ATP) and Directive 67/548/EEC.Therefore, the substance does not meet the T criterion.

Likely routes of exposure:

Substance in used in water solution for cosmetics and household application so the main exposure route is the dermal one.
