Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

RS-Freetext:
A survey of major rivers, Chesapeake and San
Francisco Bays and Lakes Huron, Michigan, Ontario
and Superior-23 sites in all-indicated that
only 7% of the water samples analyzed contained
low levels of DOA. The DOA concentration
in these positive samples ranged from 0.25 to
1.0 ug/L and averaged 0.46 ug/L. Assigning a
concentration of 0.1 ug/L (that is, one-half the
detection limit) to those samples in which DOA
was not detected allowed the calculation of the
geometric mean concentration of 0.11 ug/L as the
average DOA concentration in the surface waters
tested.
