The chemical mechanisms according to the model underpinning the predicted result

(OECD principle 5)

The chemical structure influences the biodegradability of the substance. Therefore, chemical fragments were selected having a potential effect on biodegradability. In order to be able to predict the biodegradability probability of substances without these specific fragments, the molecular weight was integrated into the models.
