Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
Additional information
L-leucine is not applied directly to soil and is not expected to be transferred indirectly to soil via STP sludge (due to its ready biodegradability), nor via aerial depostion (due to its low vapour pressure). Furthermore, the substance has a low tendency to bind to soil and a low potential for bioaccumulation, as can be predicted from its low log Kow value (-1.52).
The combination of a good biodegradability, a low potential to bioaccumulate and a low capacity to bind to soil, in the absence of both direct and indirect exposure of the soil compartment indicates that the risk of L-leucine exposure to soil micro- and macroorganisms and plants can reasonably be assumed to be negligible.
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.
