Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
In a test on ready biodegradability according to OECD 301B and compliant to GLP, no relevant biodegradation of the test item was observed (3% within 28 days).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
Additional information
The ready biodegradability of the test item was determined with a non adapted activated sludge over a test period of 28 days in the Modified Sturm Test (according to OECD 301B and compliant to GLP, RL1). The test item was tested at a concentration of 40.0 mg/L in duplicates, corresponding to a carbon content (TOC) of 13.87 mg C/L in the test vessels. To check the activity of the test system, sodium benzoate was used as functional control. The percentage degradation of the functional control reached the pass level of 60 % within 7 days and a biodegradation of 86 % after 28 days. In the toxicity control containing both test and reference item the biodegradation of the reference item was not inhibited by the test item. The biodegradation of the test item did not reach the 10 % level in both test item replicates. The mean biodegradation reached 3 % until day 28.
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.
