Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
Description of key information
The substance is readily biodegradable but failing the 10-day window criterion.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable but failing 10-day window
Additional information
The biodegradation potential of the substance in water was determined in a screening study according to OECD TG 301B (CO2 -Evolution Test) and in compliance with GLP criteria (BASF, 2014). In this study ca. 27 mg/L test substance (equivalent to 20 mg/L TOC) was inoculated with activated sludge from a municipal sewage plant for 28 days under aerobic conditions in the dark. During the incubation period degradation was followed by determining the carbon dioxide produced. After the 28 -day incubation period 70 -80% of the test substance was biodegraded. The pass level of 60% degradation was reached within 23 days after the start of the test. The 10 -window criterion was however not met. Based on these findings, the test substance is classified as readily biodegradable but failing the 10 -day window.
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.
