Description of key information
Neither readily nor inherently biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
Additional information
There are no information about the biodegradability potential of Acid Black 222, thus the available information on the structural analogous Similar Substance 01 have been taken into consideration; the read across approach can be considered as appropriate and suitable to assess the property under investigation. Details are available in IUCLID section 13.
The biodegradability of Similar Substance 01 was investigated following testing procedures outlined into OECD guideline 302B. The test item resulted to be mainly eliminated during the first 3 hours, when 29.2 % of the initial DOC was removed; after 28 days, mean bioelimination resulted to be 26.8 %. Thus, the substance can be considered as neither readily nor inherently biodegradable (Mätzler, 1994).
A second test, conducted on the Similar Susbtance 01, is available. The inherent biodegradability of test item was determined in a 28 days Zahn-Wellens Test, according to the OECD 302B. The test was penformed with adapted sludge (adaptation 28 days) because of the unusual result of the first test with non-adapted sludge. Bioelimination, measured as DOC after 28 days and corrected by blank control, resulted to be 69 % (average of 2 measurements). The DOC removal after 3 hours resulted to be 26 % and the removal after 4 days was of 62.5 % (Frey, 1985).
The curve shape, in this second experiment, shows that the substance was removed in the first days of experiment; after 4 days, a flatten of the curve seems to occur. The behavoiur described in consistent with the above mentioned test outcomes and with the behaviour expected for the substance, based on the physicochemical properties. In conclusion, the substance can be considered as neither readily, nor inherently biodegradable.
