Executive summary:

The ready biodegradability of 2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, tetracosyl ester(branched) was evaluated during a GLP-compliant study perform in accordance with the OECD Testing Guideline 301F (Manometric Respirometry).

Sodium acetate was used as reference substance.

Secondary effluent from domestic sewage treatment plant was used for the purpose of this study.

Oxygen consumption was evaluated on Day 0, 7, 14, 21 and 28.

Validation criteria were met.

On Day 7, 73% of the test substance had been ready biodegraded. Ready biodegradation reached 91% on Day 28.

It wasconcluded that 2-Propenoic acid, 2-methyl-, tetracosyl ester(branched) is ready biodegradable.
