- Endpoint:
- bioaccumulation in aquatic species: fish
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Justification for type of information:
- REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
(see 'Attached justification')
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The analogue substance is the hydrolysis/transformation product of the target substance, and the substance is hydrolytically unstable at pH 4.00 and 7.00, so exposure to the analogue substance may be expected.
2. SOURCE AND TARGET CHEMICAL(S) (INCLUDING INFORMATION ON PURITY AND IMPURITIES)
- Source: N,N'-dicyclohexylurea, CAS No. 2387-23-7, purity 99.15%.
