Description of key information
The calculated adsorption/desorption coefficient Koc of L-alanine is ca. 0.0361.
The estimated result shows that the substance has no environmental impact.
In accordance with REACH Annex VIII section 9.3.1. column 2 and Annex IX section 9.3.3. column 2, further studies do not need to be conducted as the substance has a low log Kow as well as the substance and its degradation products decompose rapidly.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Koc at 20 °C:
- 0.036
Additional information
The calculated adsorption/desorption coefficient Koc of l-alanine is ca. 0.0361 (log Koc: ca. -1.4425). This estimated result shows that the substance has no environmental impact.
The log Koc was calculated by EpiSuite's KOCWIN model. The suitability of the model was assessed and it was concluded that L-alanine is considered to be inside the applicability domain of the EpiSuite KOCWIN model.
In accordance with REACH Annex VIII section 9.3.1. column 2 and Annex IX section 9.3.3. column 2, further studies do not need to be conducted as the substance has a low log Kow as well as the substance and its degradation products decompose rapidly.
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.
