Description of key information
On the basis of the available data it is concluded that allyl heptanoate is readily biodegradable fulfilling the 10-day window.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- readily biodegradable
Additional information
The biodegradability of Allyl heptanoate has been determined in three different studies, two of which showed that the substance is readily biodegradable. It is concluded that the substance should be classified as readily biodegradable fulfilling the 10-day window as consistent positive test results supersede negative test results.
The first study is an OECD 301 F study at a concentration of 100 mg/L with a biodegradability of 81% after 28 days fulfilling the 10-day window.The second study is an OECD 301 B test at a concentration of 10 mg/L with a biodegradability of 92% after 28 days and 75.8% at the end of the 10-day window. The third study conducted according to OECD 301 D showed only 40% degradation after 28 days. As the first two studies are consistent and reliable their positive results are taken into account for the ready biodegradability of the substance.
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.
