Description of key information
The substance 2-methylbut-2-ene (CAS 513-35-9), at a concentration of 2.1 mg/l, was not inhibitory to the normal biodegradation of sodium benzoate by microbial inoculum. The 5 day NOEC is estimated to be > 2.1 mg/l.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
One reliable proprietary study, Huntingdon (2004e) is available for the isomer 2-methylbut-2-ene (CAS 513-35-9). Since isoamylene (2-methylbutene, CAS 26760-64-5) is a mixture of the two isomers, 2-methylbut-2-ene (CAS 513-35-9) and 2-methylbut-1-ene (CAS 563-46-2) and in the absence of any reliable data for isoamylene the data for the isomer (CAS 513-35-9) are considered suitable for read-across.
The substance 2-methylbut-2-ene (CAS 513-35-9), at a concentration of 2.1 mg/l, was not inhibitory to the normal biodegradation of sodium benzoate by microbial inoculum. The 5 day NOEC is estimated to be > 2.1 mg/l.
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.
