Description of key information

Methyl cinnamate was investigated in a modified OECD screening test and showed to be readily biodegradable.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Biodegradation in water:
readily biodegradable

Additional information

The biodegradation of the test item was investigated in a modified OECD screening test and fully biodegraded (100%) within 7 day. Therefore, the substance is considered readily biodegradable.

The reference substance achieved 100% degradation within 28 days in a parallel experiment.
