Biodegradation in water and sediment: simulation tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- biodegradation in water: simulation testing on ultimate degradation in surface water
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is readily biodegradable
- other:
- Transformation products:
- no

Description of key information
Based on the readily biodegradability status of the substance, the CSA demonstrates safe use for the water and sediment compartments. Therefore half-life data from simulation tests is not required to further refine the exposure assessment.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The substance, Benzyl salicylate has been shown to be readily biodegradable and, according to Regulation (EC) 1907/2006, it is unnecessary to perform surface water or sediment simulation tests for substances that are readily biodegradable. The identification of degradation products is also not required.
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.
