Each volumetric flask (in duplicate) was filled up to volume with an appropriate buffered solution of given pH. During the experimental part of hydrolysis, the volumetric flasks were placed in the thermostatic bath kept at a certain temperature.

- Measures taken to avoid photolytic effects: The sample solutions in volumetric flasks were wrapped in aluminium foil
- Measures to exclude oxygen: Prior to preparation of a sample solution, each buffered solution was bubbled with nitrogen for at least 5 minutes. Flasks were tightly closed with a stopper.
- Is there any indication of the test material adsorbing to the walls of the test apparatus: Yes

- HYDROLYSIS OF UNSTABLE SUBSTANCE (TIER 2)
Different concentrations of the test substance from the parallel tests in the same buffered solution were obtained. That situation was the same for each used buffered solution and temperature during the whole Tier 2. At the end of Tier 2, precipitation of the test substance was observed in all of the tested buffered solutions. The precipitated test substance adhered to glass. Precipitation of the test substance and its subsequent adherence to glass affected the obtained results.
Therefore the decrease of the test substance during the whole testing procedure was not caused by hydrolysis. No degradation products were detected in all of tested buffered solutions.
IDENTIFICATION OF HYDROLYSIS PRODUCTS (TIER 3)
In all experiments, there was no significant signal of any possible hydrolytic product of the test substance. No degradation products were detected in all of tested buffered solutions. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of this study, the test substance is considered to be hydrolytically stable.
- Executive summary:
The potential of the test substance to undergo hydrolysis was investigated in accordance with Method C.7 – Degradation – Abiotic Degradation: Hydrolysis as a Function of pH, Council regulation (EC) No 440/2008, Published in OJ No L 142/518 May 2008.
A preliminary test (Tier 1) was performed at 50 ± 0.5 °C and pH 4.0, 7.0, and 9.0. During the preliminary test a decrease of more than about 10 % of the test substance concentration was observed. Therefore the test substance was considered to be hydrolytically unstable and Tier 2 was performed.
Tier 2 was carried out at 22, 50 and 60 °C and buffered solution with a nominal value of pH 4, 7 and 9. For Tier 3, any major hydrolysis products, at least those representing > 10 % of the applied dose, are to be identified by appropriate analytical methods.
At the end of Tier 2, precipitation of the test substance was observed in all of the tested buffered solutions. The precipitated test substance adhered to glass. Analyses from Tier 3 confirmed the presence of no degradation products in all of the tested buffered solutions.
On the basis of these observations, the decrease of the test substance during the whole testing procedure was not caused by hydrolysis. Therefore the test substance is considered to be hydrolytically stable.
