Description of key information
The BOD5 of FAT 20011/D corrected by the blank control is 4 mg O2/g. Considering the COD of FAT 20011/D which was 496 mg O2/g, the BOD/COD ratio was found to be 0.008. The substance was thus considered as not rapidly biodegradable. In several supporting studies, following BOD and COD values were found:
BOD5 of FAT 20011/A: 180 mg/g O2
COD of FAT 20011/A: 1018.07 mg O2/g test material.
BOD5 of FAT 20011/B: 574.79 mg/g O2
COD of FAT 20011/B: 33 mg O2/g test material.
BOD5 of FAT 20011/C: 20 mg/g O2
COD of FAT 20011/C: 1277.7 mg O2/g test material.
The BOD5/COD quotient from all the above studies <0.05, therefore the substance is not indicative of rapid degradation.
In a Zahn-Wellens test conducted according to OECD Guideline 302B, the bioelimination of the test substance FAT - 20'011/D after 28 days was 22.9 %. Taking the data from all the studies into account, Acid Blue 317 is considered to be not readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
