Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- not specified
- Interpretation of results:
- not inherently biodegradable
- Conclusions:
- The substance showed a maximum biodegradation rate of 27% (based on DOC removal). The substance is not considered to be inherently biodegradable. Discolouration is not considered a suitable method to determine biodegradation, especially since the yellowish colouration of the test medium cannot be clearly related to the test item when activated sludge is added.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number.
