Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information
In a ready biodegradability study, 1-bromopropane was treated with an inoculum for 28 days in a closed bottle test according to OECD 301 D and EU method C.4-E.
The toxicity control showed that the test substance is not toxic to the inoculum at the maximum test concentration of 5.6 mg/L.
19.2 % biodegradation was achieved after 28 days and therefore 1-bromopropane cannot be classed as readily biodegradable.
The results of a screening prediction using BIOWIN v4.1 were as follows:
• Biowin1 (Linear Model Prediction) : Biodegrades Fast
• Biowin2 (Non-Linear Model Prediction): Does Not Biodegrade Fast
• Biowin3 (Ultimate Biodegradation Timeframe): Weeks
• Biowin4 (Primary Biodegradation Timeframe): Days-Weeks
• Biowin5 (MITI Linear Model Prediction) : Biodegrades Fast
• Biowin6 (MITI Non-Linear Model Prediction): Does Not Biodegrade Fast
It can be reasonably concluded that the test material is inherently biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
Additional information
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.
