Description of key information

The BCF for the test item was calculated to be approx. 2.357 L7kg w-w using BCFBAF v3.01. The log Pow of the test item is 1.58 (KOWWIN v.68) and the molecular weight is 186.21 g/mol. Hence, the validity cirteria were met.


Secondary poisoning is therefore, highly unlikely to occur in any extent for the test item.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
