Description of key information

The BCF in earthworms was estimated with the equation from Jager (1998) which is incorporated in the EUSES model and is applicable to substances with a log Kow value ranging from 1-8: BCFworm = (Fwaterworm + Flipidworm*Kow) /RHO worm where Fwaterworm = 0.84, Flipidworm = 0.012 and RHO worm = 1 kg ww/l. Entering the log Kow value of 5.65 for the substance will result in a BCFearthworm of 5361 l/kg ww.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

BCF (terrestrial species):
5 361 L/kg ww
