Eisner (2011) found the submission item readily biodegradable in a valid and conclusive OECD 301 A guideline study under GLP. Additionally there is experimental (in vitro) evidence for bio-hydrolysis of the submission item by a microbial enzyme. Smeets & Kieboom (1992, study reported in the toxicokinetics section) used a stereoselective carboxyesterase from an ubiquitary gram-positive eubacterium (Bacillus subtilus), preferably occurring in soil but present in water and air as well, to hydrolyse racemic esters. 63 % of the submission item was converted within 430 min to mono- and diacid metabolites.
