Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Generally, a BCF/BAF in fish of ≥ 500 is indicative of the potential to bioconcentrate for classification purposes in accordance with CLP/GHS criteria. The BCF/BAF values estimated for tributyl phosphate are well below the cut-off values for bioaccumulation. Therefore, tributyl phosphate is not likely to bioaccumulate in aquatic organisms.
