Bioaccumulation: aquatic / sediment
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- bioaccumulation in aquatic species: fish
- Type of information:
- read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
- Remarks:
- For justification of read-across please refer to the attached read-across report and the study endpoint record: 'Source_Bioaccumulation:aquatic / sediment_2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)butanoic acid.'
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study without detailed documentation
- Remarks:
- Study data are included in the Japan CHEmicals Collaborative Knowledge database, a well established database where data are inspected and assessed for reliability before acceptance. Data were obtained via the OECD QSAR toolbox.
- Justification for type of information:
- For details and justification of read-across please refer to the report attached here.
- Reason / purpose for cross-reference:
- read-across source
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 305 (Bioaccumulation in Fish: Aqueous and Dietary Exposure) -I: Aqueous Exposure Bioconcentration Fish Test
- Deviations:
- not specified
- GLP compliance:
- not specified
- Test organisms (species):
- Cyprinus carpio
- Route of exposure:
- aqueous
- Key result
- Type:
- BCF
- Value:
- < 62 L/kg
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- It can be concluded that Bis-MPA has a low potential for bioaccumulation, based on read-across from a structurally similar substance with a BCF value of < 62 L/kg.
- Executive summary:
This information is used in a read-across approach in the assessment of the target substance.
For justification of read-across please refer to the attached read-across report.
- Endpoint:
- bioaccumulation in aquatic species: fish
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2019
- Reliability:
- 2 (reliable with restrictions)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study without detailed documentation
- Remarks:
- Study data are included in the Japan CHEmicals Collaborative Knowledge database, a well established database where data are inspected and assessed for reliability before acceptance. Data were obtained via the OECD QSAR toolbox.
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline

- Route of exposure:
- aqueous
- Key result
- Type:
- BCF
- Value:
- < 62 L/kg
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- In a bioaccumulation test performed according to OECD TG 305 on fish species Cyprinus carpio. 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)butanoic acid was found to have a low potential for bioaccumulation, based on a BCF value of < 62 L/kg
- Executive summary:
A bioaccumulation test on 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)butanoic acid performed according to OECD TG 305 was available in the Japan CHEmicals Collaborative Knowledge database, a well established database where data are inspected and assessed for reliability before acceptance. Data were obtained through the OECD QSAR toolbox. The test, performed on Cyprinus carpio, resulted in a BCF value of < 62 L/kg, showing 2,2-bis(hydroxymethyl)butanoic acid has a low potential for bioaccumulation.
