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Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
DT50 = 13.7 h (sensitiser: OH radical) (AOP Win v1.92)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Half-life in air:
- 13.7 h
Additional information
No studies investigating the indirect photolysis of glycine are available. Using AOPWIN v1.92, a half-life of 13.7 hours was calculated (Blum, 2012), indicating rapid degradation by indirect photolysis if present in the atmosphere. However, photodegradation is not an important environmental fate process since the substance is not expected to evaporate into the atmosphere due to its very low vapor pressure of < 0.0001 Pa at 20 °C. As this study is not a standard information requirement in Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 and there is no indication from the chemical safety assessment on the need to investigate further the fate and behaviour of the substance, no further testing is considered necessary.
.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.
