Description of key information
Additional information
The ready biodegradability of the test substance Decanoyloxybenzoic acid was tested in the CO2 Evolution Test with non-adapted inoculum over a period of 28 days according to DECD Guideline for Testing of Chemicals 301 B. The test substance Decanoyloxybenzoic acid in the concentration of 24 mg/I reached a degree of degradation of 80 % after 28 days. The level of 10 % degradation (begin of biodegradation) was reached after 1 day. The 60 % level was passed after 7 days. The pass level for ready biodegradability, i. e. ~ 60 % theoretical' C02 production within 10 days after the degree of degradation has reached 10 % (l0 d window), was reached. The test substance is readily biodegradable.
In order to check the validity ofthe test sodium benzoate in a concentration of 20 mg/l was used as reference substance. The pass level of 60 % degradation within '14 days was reached. In a toxicity test, containing both the test substance and the reference substance, the degradation reached 82 %. The test substance can be assumed to be not inhibitory. The validity criteria according to the guideline were fulfilled in the test.
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.
