Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Interpretation of results:
not readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
- The test item can be considered as "not readily biodegradable"
- The degree of biodegradation reached 14% after 28 days.
- The 10d-window was not detectable.
- The abiotic degradation reached 13%.

Validity:
- The IC content of the flasks at the beginning of the test was <5% of the TC (criterion: ≤ 5% of TC).
- The degree of CO2 emitted by the controls was 32.3 mg/L (criterion: ≤ 40 mg/L).
- The difference within replicates on day 28 was < 1% (criterion: ≤ 20%).
-The reference compound reached the pass level of 60% on day 7 (criterion: ≤ 14 days).
