Ready biodegradability tests for several alkyl sulfates are available. Based on the results of screening tests for biodegradation in water it can be concluded that alkyl sulfates with carbon chain length of C8-C18 are readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria (OECD SIDS 2007).

One study performed according to OECD 301 B guideline is available for C12-isoAS Na (CAS 94200-74-5) and proves ready biodegradability of this substance.
