Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Additional information

DIDS was readily biodegradable in a GLP study, performed in accordance with OECD Guideline 301D (closed bottle test).

 

Additionally, the OECD QSAR Toolbox predicted total biodegradation and total removal of DIDS in a sewage treatment plant to be 0.78% and 94%, respectively, using EPI Suite (STP FM) (OECD, 2012).

 

DIDA, a structurally-related read-across compound, was readily biodegradable in a 28-day read biodegradability test in activated sludge, with 50.17 mg/L degraded by 76.46% (Anon, undated a). Another unpublished guideline study saw 72% biodegradation of DIDA in 28 days (Anon, undated b).

 

The ready biodegradability of DIDA and DIDS supports the use of DIDA for read-across purposes.
