Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Executive summary:

MITI, 1992


In an experimental study similar to OECD guideline 305C, the BCF value in Cyprinus carpio after exposure to 4-nitrotoluene over a period of 6 weeks was determined at two dose levels:


dose level : 0.1 ppm ; BCF values: 3.7 - 7.2


dose level : 0.01 ppm ; BCF values: 4.5 - 8.0

Description of key information

For transported isolated intermediates according to REACh, Article 18, this endpoint is not a data requirement. However, data is available for this endpoint and is thus reported under the guidance of "all available data".
