- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- MCPP-P Acid
Purity: 91.7%
Batch: 20043 - Oxygen conditions:
- aerobic
- Inoculum or test system:
- activated sludge, domestic, non-adapted
- Details on inoculum:
- Aerobic activated sludge, microorganisms from a domestic waste water treatment plant was supplied by the sewage plant in Darmstadt, Germany.
The activated sludge was washed by centrifugation. The solid material was re-suspended in tap water and centrifuged again. The procedure was repeated three times. The sediment was re-suspended in test water and aerated to two days. The ratio wet to dry weight sludge was determined. Corresponding to this rate 1.5 g dry material per liter was mixed with test water and used for the experiment. - Duration of test (contact time):
- 28 d
- Initial conc.:
- 83 mg/L
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Parameter followed for biodegradation estimation:
- O2 consumption
- Details on study design:
- TEST CONDITIONS
- Test water: standard OECD medium
- Solubilising agent: no
- Test temperature: 22+- 1 °C
- Suspended solids concentration: 1.5 g dry material per liter
- pH: start: 7.5-7.6; end: 6.8-7.4
- pH adjustment: no
- Continuous darkness: yes
- Other: climatised room
TEST SYSTEM
- Culturing apparatus:
- Number of culture flasks/concentration: 2
CONTROL AND BLANK SYSTEM
- Inoculum blank: yes, 2 replicates, 5 mL activated sludge
- Abiotic sterile control: yes, one; 20.5 mg test item + 5 mL HgCl2
- Toxicity control: yes, one; 20.0 mg test item + 20.2 mg reference item + 5 mL activated sludge
- Other:
STATISTICAL METHODS: - Reference substance:
- benzoic acid, sodium salt
- Key result
- Parameter:
- % degradation (O2 consumption)
- Value:

- Sampling time:
- 28 d
- Details on results:
- In the toxicity control containing both the test item and the reference item, 75 % biodegradation was noted within 14 days and 83 % biodegradation after 28 days of incubation. Thus, the test item can be assumed to be not inhibitory to the aerobic activated sludge microorganisms.
- Key result

- COD
- Value:
- 1.64 g O2/g test mat.
- Results with reference substance:
- The reference compound sodium benzoate showed 76 % degradation after 7 days and 87 % degradation after 14 days.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- (The percent degradation of the reference compound sodium benzoate reached the level of >= 40 % after 7 days and >= 65 % after 14 days.)
- Interpretation of results:
- readily biodegradable
- Conclusions:
- For MCPP-P acid the 28-day degradation was 85 % and for the positive control (with reference substance benzoic acid, sodium salt) the biodegradation was 87 % after 14 days. In conclusion, MCPP-P acid is considered to be "Readily Biodegradable".
- Executive summary:
Biodegradation in water was investigated with MCPP-P acid (read-across). MCPP-P acid is the main hydrolysis product of MCPP-P 2-EHE.
To test for its ready biodegradability potential, MCPP-P acid was incubated for 28 days in continuously stirred 250 mL closed flask in the dark with an inoculum of mixed population of aquatic microorganisms (activated sludge) from domestic wastewater treatment plants. In this assay, biodegradation was estimated by biological oxygen demand (BOD) over time. BOD was determined daily measuring the drop in pressure in the automated respirometer flasks. The incubation temperature was 22 ± 1 °C, pH was 7.5 – 7.6. The concentration of inoculum was 30 mg/L and the concentration of the test substance was 1.5 g/L. For MCPP-P acid the 28-day degradation was 85 % and for the positive control (with reference substance benzoic acid, sodium salt) the biodegradation was 87 % after 14 days. In conclusion MCPP-P acid is considered to be "Readily Biodegradable".

Referenceopen allclose all
MCPP-P acid contains no nitrogen, therefore, the evaluation of biodegradation had to be based on THOD(NH4).
The 10-d window was passed from day 8 to day 18.
Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
