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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

- Reference substance:
- E104 Quinoline Yellow
- Reference substance:
- E104 Quinoline Yellow
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
The PBT assessment for the substance is based on the criteria set out in the “Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment, Chapter R.11: PBT/ vPvB assessment” (ECHA, 2017).
Persistence
The substance is not readily biodegradable. Hydrolysis in environmental conditions is also not expected. Thus, the test substance meets the screening criterion for persistence and it could be considered to be P or vP.
Bioaccumulation
The substance is not expected to bio-accumulate based on the low LogKow and on the predicted BCF value. The uptake of an organic substance is driven by its hydrophobicity. For organic substances with a Log Kow value below 4.5 it is assumed that the affinity for the lipids of an organism is insufficient to exceed the B criterion, i.e. a BCF value of 2000 (based on wet weight of the organism, which refers to fish in most cases) (Chapter R.11, version 3.0, June 2017). The substance has a LogKow≤-2 and the predicted BCF of the substance (estimated using EPisuite BCFBAF v 3.01) is much lower than BCF threshold value for bioaccumulation (2000 L/kg). Thus, the substance is not considered to be B or vB.
Toxicity
No long-term toxicity data are available for the aquatic organisms. In the short-term aquatic toxicity studies, no hazard is identified. Studies on the acute oral toxicity of the substance showed that it is not expected to be toxic after an acute exposure. The substance is not classified for repeated dose toxicity, reproductive toxicity, carcinogenicity or mutagenicity. Therefore, the substance is not considered to be T(oxic).
The substance is not considered as PBT as, although meeting the criterion for Persistency (P), does not meet the criteria for Bioaccumulation (B) and Toxicity (T).
Reference
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.
