Additional information

According to Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, Annex IX, section 9.2.1.2., column 2 the study does not need to be conducted if the substance is readily biodegradable. The substance is already tested to be readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria (BASF, 2012, see Ch. 5.2.1). Hence, no further testing on biodegradation in water or sediment is performed.
