Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Administrative data

Description of key information
Readily biodegradable (according to OECD criteria)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
Biodegradation was assessed in a GLP test according to OECD 301 using non-adapted domestic acticated sludge (BASF 2011). After 28 days of exposure the substance was mineralized to an amount of 91% related to inorganic carbon analysis based on CO2 evolution.
The inherent biodegradability of the test substance was determined in a GLP guideline study according to OECD 302C. Based on the oxygen consumption a biodegradation of the test material of 95 % was determined after 28 days (BASF China R1101240199B, 2011). Therefore, the test substance is considered to be readily as well as inherently biodegradable.
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.
