Description of key information
The ready biodegradability of the target compoundMethyl (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate was predicted employing three different predictors:BIOWIN module of EPISuite, Toxtree and Vega. The three predictors were employed in order to apply a weight of evidence (WoE) approach to enhance the reliability of the predictions. In the weight of evidence assessment only reliable predictions are to be taken into account.
In the case of the target compound Methyl (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate, it was predicted as ready biodegradable by BIOWIN (moderate reliable prediction), as possible readily biodegradable by Vega (moderate reliable prediction), and as easily biodegradable by Toxtree (reliability assessment not applicable).
Thus it was concluded that Methyl (4-hydroxyphenyl)acetate was predicted as ready biodegradable and the prediction was assessed as moderate reliable.
Additional information
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.
