Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Interpretation of results:
readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
The substance is readily biodegradable
Executive summary:

Due to the unsolubility of the substance in water the OECD 301 F was choosen.

100 mg test substance /l was stirred in a closed flask for 28 days. The consumption of the oxigen was determined by measuring the quantity of oxygen required to maintain constant gas volume. The amount of oxygen during the biodegradation of the test substance was expressed as a percentage of ThOD. The substance reached a biodegradation of 93% after 28 days. The 10 day window was achieved. The substance is readily biodegradble.
