Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Any other information on results incl. tables

No statistically significant effects could be observed for the short-term  

respiration and the nitrogen turnover at the 1-fold and 10-fold concentrations

of PBO 28 days after test initiation.
Based on the results of the summarised study Piperonyl Butoxide has no long-term effects on the nitrogen turnover and the short-term respiration 

in a field soil tested up to to 9750 g of PBO/ha (corresponding to  10-fold 

application rate) 28 days after application.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Based on the results of the summarised study Piperonyl Butoxide has no long-term effects on the nitrogen turnover and the short-term respiration in a field soil tested up to to 9750 g of PBO/ha (corresponding to 10-fold application rate) 28 days after application.
