Description of key information

Hydrocarbons, C11-C14, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, <2% aromatics, biodegraded to an extent of 69% after 28 days in seawater that used the indigenous microorganisms in the seawater sample as a sole source of the inoculum. These results are read-across to Hydrocarbons, C8-C11, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, <2% aromatics.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
