Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Details on estimation of bioconcentration:
WoE 2:
BASIS FOR CALCULATION OF BCF
- Result based on calculated log Pow of: 3.28 (estimated value)

WoE 3:
BASIS FOR CALCULATION OF BCF
- Result based on calculated log Pow of: 8.69(estimated value)
Key result
Type:
BCF
Value:
> 66 - < 500 dimensionless
Basis:
whole body w.w.
Calculation basis:
other: Log Pow and a regression derived equation.
Remarks on result:
other: WoE 2 and WoE 3
Validity criteria fulfilled:
not specified
Conclusions:
On the basis of the experimental studies of the test chemical and applying the weight of evidence approach, the BCF value of the test chemical can be expected to be in the range 66 to 500 dimensionless, respectively. Thus, as this value does not exceed the bioconcentration threshold of 2000 indicating that the test chemical is not expected to bioaccumulate in the food chain
Executive summary:

Data available of its read across chemicals has been reviewed to determine the bioaccumulation potential of test chemical. The studies are as mentioned below:

Bioaccumulation test was conducted for estimating the bioconcentration factor (BCF) of test chemical.The bioconcentration factor was determined to be 66 dimesionless, from an estimated log Pow of 3.28 and a regression derived equation.

Another bioaccumulation test was conducted for estimating the bioconcentration factor (BCF) of test chemical.The bioconcentration factor was determined to be 500 dimesionless, from an estimated log Pow of 8.69 and a regression derived equation.

On the basis of the experimental studies of the test chemical and applying the weight of evidence approach, the BCF value of the test chemical can be expected to be in the range 66 to 500 dimensionless, respectively. Thus, as this value does not exceed the bioconcentration threshold of 2000 indicating that the test chemical is not expected to bioaccumulate in the food chain
