Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
In sewage treatment plants, no toxic effects on microorganisms are expected. The NOEC is considered to be 15.1 mg/L (OECD 301B, toxicity control).
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
A substance can be assumed to be not inhibitory to aquatic microorganisms, if in the toxicity control of a ready biodegradation test, more than 25% degradation based on CO2 evolution occurred within 14 days (OECD guidance 301). For Glycerides, C8-18 and C18-unsatd. mono- and di-, acetates (CAS No. 91052-13-0) a biodegradation test according to OECD guideline 301B is available (Clarke, 2009), which includes a toxicity control containing of about 15.1 mg/L of test substance. The toxicity control attained 47% degradation after 14 days of incubation.
Hence, the substance was not toxic to aquatic microorganisms in the toxicity control and in accordance with the Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment Chapter R.7b: Endpoint specific guidance (ECHA, 2012) the highest test concentration of 15.1 mg/L can be determined as NOEC.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
