nominal conc.

Examinations

Examinations:
The results were evaluated based on relative activity, expressed as 10% relative effective concentration (REC 10), which is the concentration of the
test chemical showing 10% of the agonist activity of 1 E-6 M 17ß-Estradiol, the highest activity level of 17ß-Estradiol.
Positive control:
17ß-Estradiol

Results and discussion

Details on results:
REC 10 < 1.0 E -4
None of the tested Benzotriazole compounds - among these the test substance - showed estrogenic activity.
