Description of key information

Based on read across, dodecene is not expected to be inhibitory to microorganisms.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

Miller and Watkinson (1984) investigated the toxicity of alkenes, C10 -14 to activated sewage sludge as part of a ready biodegradability screening test. The study was conducted to standard guidelines (OECD 301D) and the validity criteria of the test guideline were met. After 5 days 64% biodegradation was observed in the test vessels containing both test and reference material. Therefore, microbial respiration was not found to be significantly inhibited at the concentration tested (2mg/l).

Therefore, based on read across from this study dodecene is not expected to be inhibitory to microorganisms.
