Description of key information
The substance is expected to have a low potential for bioaccumulation.
Additional information
The target substance 2-octyldodecyl 12-[(1-oxooctadecyl)oxy]octadecanoate (CAS 90052-75-8) is a long-chain aliphatic ester with a high estimated log Kow, which suggests a potential for bioaccumulation. However, since the substance has low water solubility and is readily biodegradable, no chronic exposure and relevant uptake is likely. In the case of uptake by fish, the substance is expected to be rapidly metabolized via enzymatic hydrolysis into its corresponding fatty acids and fatty alcohols. From literature it is well known that these hydrolysis products will be effectively metabolized and excreted by fish (Heymann, 1980; Lech & Bend, 1980; Lech & Melancon, 1980; Murphy & Lutenske, 1990; Sand et al., 1973).
In conclusion, the substance is expected to have a low potential for bioaccumulation.
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.
