Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
The key study was performed equivalent to OECD guideline 301C under GLP conditions. No degradation was observed with the test substance after 28 days (based on TOC removal), whereas the reference substance (aniline) showed up to 74 % degradation after 14 days. Therefore, it can be concluded that the test results are valid. In conclusion, a 28-day Modified MITI test showed that the substance is not readily biodegradable.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
Additional information
One study describing a ready biodegradability test was identified. This was a study of CERI (2004), which is an OECD 301 C study (Modified MITI test). The study concludes that the test substance is not biodegradable under test conditions. No biodegradation was observed. As the study is performed according to GLP, this study was rated K1 and assigned as key study.
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.
