Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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

Available data for 4- aminobenzene sulfonic acid, which has been used as a read-across chemical to the target chemical 2-aminobenzenesulphonic acid, indicates low bio-accumulation potential for the read-across chemical. Thus, is can be assumed that the target chemical by virtue of having similar functional groups as the read-across shall also exhibit low bio-accumulation potential.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Bioaccumulation potential:
low bioaccumulation potential

Additional information

4-Aminobenzene sulfonic acid can be absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Absorption through the lungs appears to be possible; absorption of an intratracheally-instilled solution of 4- aminobenzene sulfonic acid has been detected in the rat. Accumulation does not take place in mammals; excretion after oral administration mainly occurs within 24 hr. 4-Aminobenzene sulfonic acid is excreted either unchanged or as the N-acetyl metabolite, in the urine and the feces in rats.

 

Thus, is can be assumed that the target chemical by virtue of having similar functional groups as the read-across shall also exhibit low bio-accumula tion potential.
