Administrative data

Endpoint:
bioaccumulation in aquatic species: fish
Type of information:
other: Weight-of-evidence
Adequacy of study:
weight of evidence
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Weight of evidence assessment based on the UCVB components and QSAR estimates
Justification for type of information:
No data are available for "Reaction product of saturated palm kernel fatty acids and oxybispropanediol". The bioaccumulation of this substance is therefore assessed in a weight of evidence analysis based on QSAR estimates for the UVCB components supported by analogue analysis of triglycerides.
