* Phosphate buffer pH 7: 0.01 M A solution of 0.01 M potassium di-hydrogenphosphate in water adjusted to pH 7 using 1 N sodium hydroxide. The buffer contained 0.0009% (w/v) sodium azide.
* Borate buffer pH 9: 0.01 M A solution of 0.01 M boric acid in water and 0.01 M potassium chloride in water adjusted to pH 9 using 1 N sodium hydroxide. The buffer contained 0.0009% (w/v) sodium azide.

Details on test conditions:

TEST SYSTEM
- Type, material and volume of test flasks, other equipment used: sterile vessel

- Preparation of test medium: The test item was spiked to the solutions at a target concentration of 100 µg/l using a spiking solution in methanol.
- Renewal of test solution: not applicable
- Identity and concentration of co-solvent: not applicable

Preliminary study:

The preliminary hydrolysis test were performed at 50.2 ± 0.1 °C. At pH 4, pH 7 and pH 9 a degree of hydrolysis of < 10% was observed after 5 days. It demonstrated that the half-life time of the test item at 25°C is > 1 year. According to the guideline, no further tests were required.

Remarks:

No test item was detected in the blank buffer solutions. The mean recoveries of the buffer solut ions fell within the criterion range of 90-110%. It demonstrated that the analytical method was ade quate to support the hydrolysis study on the test item.

Conclusions:

T001159 was found to be hydrolytically stable at pH 4.0, pH 7.0 and pH 9.0 with a degree of hydrolysis of < 10% after 5 days. It demonstrated that the half-life time of the test item at 25°C is > 1 year and the test item was considered hydrolytically stable. Therefore, no further testing was performed. The results of the test can be considered reliable without restriction.

Description of key information

One study (Reingruber, 2016) was performed according to OECD guideline 111 and regarded as a key study (Klimisch score of 1).
