Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
An OECD guideline 301 D, closed bottle test, was performed on Akypoquat 131: 64.3% and 71% biodegradability was observed after 15 and 28 days, respectively and 60% degradation was achieved within the 10 day window.
The substance is therefore considered as readily biodegradable meeting the 10-d window criterion.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
A ready biodegradability study was performed to assess the biotic degradation of the test item according tothe OECD Guideline 301 D.
BOD bottles were filled with mineral medium inoculated withinfluent + effluent sewage plantand test substance added at the following concentrations of 22.1, 7.63, 4.37 and 2.93 mg/L; 15.2, 6.24, 3.89 and 2.45 mg/L; 10.8, 5.79, 3.42 and 2.45 mg/L. Mineral nutrient solution without test substance without inoculum (2 replicates) and Mineral nutrient solution without test substance but with inoculum (2 replicates) were included.
The concentrations of dissolved oxygen in bottles from each group incubated at 20 °C in darkness were measured at the start of the test and 5, 15 and 28 days.
4 measured concentrations: the first concentration tested is unacceptable (too high); The test substance was biodegraded by 71 % after 28 days (mean of the 3 lowest tested concentrations) and 64.3 % of biodegradability after 15 days (mean of the 3 lowest tested concentrations). Therefore test substance is readily biodegradable, 10-day window criteria fulfilled.
Test substance is considered as readily biodegradable based on the biodegradation percentage of 71 % at day 28 and 10 days window criteria fulfilled.
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.
