Biodegradation in water: screening tests

Administrative data

Endpoint:
biodegradation in water: ready biodegradability
Type of information:
read-across based on grouping of substances (category approach)
Remarks:
APP category
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: Category is coherent for more than 10 endpoints. All members are ready biodegradable and even for some of them anaerobic studies are available and show also ready biodegradability under these conditions.
Justification for type of information:
Discussed in the document attached
