Description of key information
A relevant exposure of birds is not expected.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
No information concerning effects to birds of ethyl methacrylate is available. However, in chapter R.10 of the Guidance on information requirements and chemical safety assessment (ECHA 2008, p. 42) concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), it is laid down that "the chemicals of concern with respect to secondary poisoning include lipophilic organic chemicals and some metal compounds". The substance shows a low adsorptive (Koc >/= 54 - </= 270) as well as a bioaccumulative (BCF 8) potential. Hence, a relevant distribution into soil and a considerable exposure of birds is not expected. Therefore, and because of reasons of animal welfare, no study on toxicity in birds is performed.
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.
