Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Description of key information
36% degradation within 28 days (% of COD) , cannot be considered as inherently biodegradable (OECD 302 C)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The inherent biodegradability of 2,4 -DTAP was evaluated. The method used followed that described in the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals / Section 2: Degradation and Accumulation, Test No. 302C "Inherent Biodegradability, Modified MITI Test (II). A mixed population of activated sewage sludge microorganisms was used as inoculum and aniline as reference substance. Initial concentration of test substance was 30 mg/l and reference substance 100 mg/l. 2,4 -DTAP attained 36% degradation within 28 days calculated from oxygen uptake (% of COD) and therefore, cannot be considered as inherently biodegradable under the strict terms and conditions of the OECD Guidelines. TOC analysis of 2,4 -DTAP was not possible due to the insoluble nature of the test material. A modified MITI test was carried out due to this fact. A COD value of 2.80 mg O2/mg was obtained for the test material.
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.
