Biodegradation in soil
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- biodegradation in soil: simulation testing
- Data waiving:
- study scientifically not necessary / other information available
- Justification for data waiving:
- the study does not need to be conducted because the substance is readily biodegradable

Description of key information
The performance of tests for biodegradation in soil is scientifically unjustified. REACH Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006, Annex IX, Sect. 9.2.1.3, Col. 2, states as follows: “9.2.1.3: The study need not to be conducted: - if the substance is readily biodegradable, or - if direct and indirect exposure of soil is unlikely. ” Direct and indirect exposure of the test item ditetradecyl peroxydicarbonate to water and sediment is highly unlikely. The test substance is practically insoluble in water and readily biodegradable. In addition, low exposure is guaranteed, as no sludge application from STP on soil will be done and aerial deposition is negligible. Thus, simulation testing for biodegradation in soil was considered not scientifically justified.

Additional information
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.
