Description of key information

The bioconcentration factor (BCF) was estimated by BCFBAF v3.00, a model within Estimation Programs Interface Suite™ for Microsoft ® Windows, v4.00. This estimated BCF is useful to evaluate the potential for bioaccumulation in both aquatic and terrestrial habitats.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

BCF (terrestrial species):
2.965 L/kg ww

Additional information

The BCF for 4-methylpyridine was estimated as 2.965 L/kg wet weight (log BCF = 0.472), and indicates that this compound has a low potential for bioaccumulation.
