PBT assessment
Administrative data
PBT assessment: overall result
- PBT status:
- the substance is not PBT / vPvB
- Justification:
C14 AO is readily biodegradable and hence does not meet the criterion for classification as P or vP. The log Kow is < 2.7 indicating that there is low potential for bioaccumulation and hence the criterion for classification as B or vB are not met. The lowest NOEC from long-term aquatic studies performed on fish, daphnia and algae C12-14 AO and read across to C14 AO is >= 0.067 mg AO/L. Based on available studies performed with C12-14 AO and read across to C14 AO the substance does not meet the criteria for classification as a CMR and there is no other evidence of chronic toxicity that would result in classification as T, R48, Xn, R48 according to Directive 67/548/EEC or STOT RE 1 or 2 according to Regulation EC No 1272/2008.
- Likely routes of exposure:
Humans: The most likely route of exposure for workers and consumers is dermal via contact with products containing the substance.
Environment: The most likely route of exposure is to the aquatic compartment via sewage treatment plants. There may also be indirect exposure to the soil compartment via deposition of sewage sludge.
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.
