Endpoint:
particle size distribution (granulometry)
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: acceptable company statement
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Version / remarks:

Executive summary:

The particle size distribution of the test substance was determined in a non-GLP study (2016) by using the dry sieve test.

Description of key information

The particle size distribution of the test substance was determined in a non-GLP study (2012) by using the dry sieve test (< 125 µM: 25 %; 125 -212 µM: 40 %; 212 -300 µM: 20%; 300 - 500 µM: 12 %; > 500 µM: 3 %)
