Description of key information
The study to determine the BMF of bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate (TBPH) was conducted according to OECD guideline 305. The resulting BMFkgL of 0.038 (after 28 days for uptake, and another 28 days for depuration) indicates that bis(2-ethylhexyl) tetrabromophthalate (TBPH) is not bioaccumulative to fish of the species Oncorhynchus mykiss when applied orally and uptake results via the digestive tract.
Additional information
Bioaccumulation
After 28 days for uptake, and another 28 days for depuration a kinetic BMFk of 0.004 was determined subsequently, which was corrected for growth dilution effects resulting in a BMFkg of 0.014. Finally, a lipid-correction of the BMF was conducted, in order to standardize the BMF for comparative analyses of the results. The resulting BMFkgL of 0.038 indicates that TBPH is not bioaccumulative to fish of the species Oncorhynchus mykiss when applied orally and uptake results via the digestive tract. The critical threshold for classification of substances to be bioaccumulative are BMF values >1 as suggested in the guidance document of the European commission for delivering environmental standards.
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.
