Applicant's summary and conclusion

Interpretation of results:
readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
Half life period of 3-amino-2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzenesulphonic acid in water is 38 days and based on this value it is indicated that the 3-amino-2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzenesulphonic acid is not persistent in water and shall be readily bio-degradable.
Executive summary:

Half life period of 3-amino-2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzenesulphonic acid in water is 38 days and based on this value it is indicated that the

3-amino-2-hydroxy-5-nitrobenzenesulphonic acid is not persistent in water and shall be readily bio-degradable.therefore it is considered that the substance will qualify as not persistent as the half life does not exceed the EPA criteria of 60 days. So, it can be confirmed that the substance is readily biodegradable in water medium
