Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Interpretation of results:
not readily biodegradable
Conclusions:
The test substance is shown to be not ready biodegradable (0% biodegradation within 28 days) in an OECD 301C test.
Executive summary:

A ready biodegradation study according to the OECD guideline no 301C anf following GLP was conducted.

Inoculum from 12 different sources were applied including 4 domestic STP, 3 industrial STP and 5 rivers

After 28 days 0% biodegradation was observed and it is concluded that the test substance is not ready biodegradable.
