Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

The aquatic bioaccumulation potential of Ebanol has been assessed using a "weight of evidence" approach. Ebanol demonstrated a metabolic turnover of 73 -75% in a trout liver S9 "in vitro" assay. Furthermore, Ebanol is readily biodegradable and it is generally accepted that readily biodegradable chemicals have a high probability of being metabolised in exposed organisms. BCF estimation methods corroborated with analogue data and models that take biotransformation into account gave similar BCF estimates in the range of 102 to 366 L/kg.

No information on terrestrial bioaccumulation is available. It is not a standard requirement under REACH.
