Description of key information
Accordingly, the % degradation of the test item after 28 days of incubation at 20 ± 1°C according to Closed Bottle test was determined to be 70.31%.Based on the results, the test item, under the test conditions, was considered to be readily biodegradable in nature.
Additional information
A 28-days Closed Bottle test following the OECD guideline 301D to determine the ready biodegradability of 2-ethoxy benzoic acid (pure), CAS No.134-11-2. The test system included control, test item and reference item. The concentration of test and reference item ( Sodium benzoate) chosen for both the study was 4 mg/L, while that of inoculum was 32 ml/L. ThOD (Theoretical oxygen demand) of test and reference item was determined by calculation. % Degradation was calculated using the values of BOD and ThOD for test item and reference item. The BOD28 value of 2-ethoxybenzoic acid (pure), CAS No. 134-11-2 was observed to be 1.35 mgO2/mg. ThOD was calculated as 1.92 mgO2/mg. Accordingly, the % degradation of the test item after 28 days of incubation at 20 ± 1°C according to Closed Bottle test was determined to be 70.31%.Based on the results, the test item, under the test conditions, was considered to be readily biodegradable in nature.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
