Description of key information

The test substance is not readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria. It is poorly biodegradable and poorly eliminated from water.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

A GLP guideline study according to OECD 301B has been conducted (BASF 2014). The ready biodegradability was measured using CO2-evolution. After 28 d of exposure < 10% biodegradation was observed for the test item. Therefore, the test substance is not readily biodegradable according OECD criteria.

The results are supported by two GLP guideline studies according to OECD 301C (Institute of Ecotoxixology Co. Ltd. 2015) and OECD 302B (APM 2017). Both studies show that the test substance is not readily biodegradable and is poorly eliminated from water.
