Description of key information
Additional information
L-Threonine is indirectly photodegraded by reaction with hydroxyl radicals in the atmosphere with a half-life of about 8.224 hours taking into account a 24 -h day and a mean OH radical concentration of 0.5E06 radicals per cm3. It does not contain chromophores that absorb at wavelengths > 290 nm and therefore is not expected to be susceptible to direct photolysis by sunlight.
L-Threonine is not expected to undergo hydrolysis in the environment due to the lack of functional groups that hydrolyse under environmental conditions.
L-Threonine is readily biodegradable under aerobic and anaerobic conditions.
Due to the low logKow and its physiological role L-threonine is considered to have a low potential for bioaccumulation/bioconcentration in organisms.
The logKoc of L-threonine is estimated to be below -1 , using the software program KOCWIN as well as using the software program ACD/LogD Suite, Version 12.0. This indicates a high mobility in soil.
L-Threonine exists as zwitterion in the environment. Volatilization from moist soil surfaces and water surfaces will not occur as ionic compounds do not volatilize.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
