Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
Additional information
A closed bottle ready biodegradation study was performed to assess the ready biodegradability of the read across substance, amides, C16-18, N-(hydroxyethyl), with non-adapted municipal activated sludge according to OECD Guideline 301 D, in compliance with GLP. The test substance concentration was 3.33 mg/L, corresponding to 10.22 mg O2/L in the test vessel. Degradation was analysed by measuring the oxygen concentrations over a period of 28 d. Biodegradation was expressed as the percentage BOD and calculated for each oxygen analysis. Sodium acetate was used as the reference control at 10 mg/L. The test substance reached the 10% level (begin of degradation) after 2 d. The pass level of >60% was reached after 17 d. The degradation reached a maximum of 69% after 28 d. The biodegradation for the reference substance reached 68% after 14 d. All the validity criteria according to the guideline were fulfilled. Under the test conditions, the test substance was considered readily biodegradable (Fiebig, 2005).
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.
