Description of key information
The test substance was found to be readily biodegradable in an OECD 301B guideline study.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
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. In this study, 32.7 mg/L test substance (corresponding to 20 mg/L TOC) was inoculated with activated sludge from predominantly domestic sewage for 28 days under aerobic conditions. Throughout the incubation period the evolved CO2 was determined and compared to the ThCO2 as indication of biodegradation. Based on CO2/ThCO2, 80 - 90% of the test substance was biodegraded after the 28-day exposure period. Degradation of the test substance at the end of the 10-day window was 60-70% CO2/ThCO2; the10-day window criterion was met. Based on these findings the substance is classified as readily biodegradable.
