Biodegradation in water: screening tests

Administrative data

Endpoint:
biodegradation in water: ready biodegradability
Type of information:
(Q)SAR
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2018
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
results derived from a valid (Q)SAR model and falling into its applicability domain, with adequate and reliable documentation / justification
Justification for type of information:
Biodegradability was estimated using the BIOWIN™ v4.10 module of EPI Suite™ v.4.11. BIOWIN™ estimates aerobic and anaerobic biodegradability of organic chemicals using 7 different models. Two of these are the original Biodegradation Probability Program (BPP™).

Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Biodegradation was estimated using the BIOWIN™ v4.10 module of EPI Suite™ v.4.11. BIOWIN™ estimates aerobic and anaerobic biodegradability of organic chemicals using 7 different models. Two of these are the original Biodegradation Probability Program (BPP™). The seventh and newest model estimates anaerobic biodegradation potential. The Estimation Programs Interface EPI Suite™ was developed by the US Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics and Syracuse Research Corporation (SRC).
