Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Bioaccumulation:

In general it is considered that bioaccumulation is the process by which the chemical concentration in an aquatic organism achieves a level that exceeds that in the water, as a result of chemical uptake through all possible routes of exposure. The relationship between bioaccumulation and bio-concentration is that, chemicals that have the potential to bioconcentrate also have the potential to bioaccumulate. So, based on this information the estimated BCF factor was obtained to be 3.2. Now EPA has established a series of proposed thresholds for bioaccumulative chemicals. If this cutoff threshold is used as a comparison then the substance 3,5-diiodosalicylic acid can be considered to be non bioaccumulative in nature (as the EPA standard indicate that the bioconcentration factor threshold value is 1000). A substance would be considered as non bioaccumulative in nature if the BCF factor is less 1000.
