Administrative data
Description of key information
According to REACH Annexes IX and X, endpoint 9.4, column 2, toxicity testing on terrestrial organisms shall be proposed by the registrant if the chemical safety assessment according to Annex I indicates the need to investigate further the effects on terrestrial organisms. Due to the absence of toxicity data for soil organisms, the equilibrium partitioning method was applied to assess the hazard to soil organisms. The outcome of the environmental risk assessment based on the available data indicates safe use. Therefore, direct or indirect exposure to soil can be assumed to be negligible.
Furthermore, propyl gallate has no high potential to adsorb to soil and it is not expected to have a significant potential for bioaccumulation.
Therefore, it can be concluded, that the risk for the terrestrial compartment is low and further information and testing is not needed.
Additional information
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.
