Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Generally, a BCF in fish of ≥ 500 is indicative of the potential to bioconcentrate for classification purposes in accordance with CLP/GHS criteria. The BCF values estimated for Diesel Fuel suggest some bioaccumulation potential for some paraffin Diesel Fuel components.
