Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Expected as not readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The substance is a cobalt complex derivative dye. The substance is not expected to be ready biodegradable because of its chemical structure and its specific function. Commonly, dyes undergo a primary transformation, i.e. discolourization due to the interrupting the conjugation. Nevertheless, the degradation process involves more steps and take more time.
The test item was investigated for the potential biodegradability in a Zahn-Wellens test, according to the OECD Guideline No. 302 B (1992). In the test flasks containing the test item and inoculum, the mean concentration of DOC (dissolved organic carbon) significantly decreased after 3 hours of exposure, up to 77.5 %; during the successive 28 days, the test item content remained more or less constant, reaching the 79 % of elimination after 28 days of exposure. Based on the study outcomes, it can be deducted that the substance was mainly removed by adsorption to the sludge, rather than degraded.
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.
