The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Description of key information

The inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when introduced in appropriately low concentrations.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The assessment of the toxicity of M3ETB (CAS 926622-96-0) to aquatic microorganisms is based on the experimental data from a GLP short-term respiration inhibition test performed by BASF SE (2018; report no:08G0250/17G331) according to OECD 209. Domestic activated sludge was used as inoculum. No inhibition effect was observed at the highest test concentration (1000 mg/L, nominal). Therefore, the 180min EC10 was determined to be >1000 mg/L.

Based on the experimental data, it can be concluded that the inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when M3ETB is introduced in appropriately low concentrations.
