Description of key information

A study on ethylcyclohexane according to OECD TG 305 with carp was performed in compliance with GLP. Bio-concentration factors of 1,110–2,030 and 1,280–3,470 were obtained for the test concentration of 10 μg/L and of 1 μg/L respectively for 8-week exposure period.

The study is judged as not reliable since no steady state is reported and no depuration phase was included in this study.

Therefore the bioconcentration of ethylcyclohexane was determined by a non-experimental calculation method.

Ethylcyclohexane is a slightly water soluble, non-polar organic substance.

The calculated BCF's were estimated to be in the range of 474 to 839 L/kg.
