Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.

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

Bioaccumulation

The bioconcentration factor (BCF) for 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro -2-(1,4,5, 8-tetrabromo-6-hydroxy-3-oxoxanthen-9-yl)benzoic acid (CAS no. 18472-87-2) is estimated as 802.7 L/kg wet-wt which does not exceed the bioconcentration threshold of 2000 as per Annex XIII of REACH regulation. Thus, it was concluded that 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-2-(1,4,5,8-tetrabromo-6-hydroxy-3- oxoxanthen-9-yl) benzoic acid (CAS no. 18472-87-2) does not qualify as bio-accumulative substance.

Additional information

Bioaccumulation

The BCFBAF program v3.01 of Estimation Programs Interface (EPI) Suite (2017) prediction model was used to predict the bioconcentration factor of 3,4,5,6-tetra chloro-2-(1,4,5,8-tetrabromo-6-hydroxy-3-oxoxanthen-9-yl)benzoic acid (CAS no. 18472-87-2). The bioconcentration factor (BCF) for 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro -2-(1,4,5, 8-tetrabromo-6-hydroxy-3-oxoxanthen-9-yl)benzoic acid (CAS no. 18472-87-2) is estimated as 802.7 L/kg wet-wt which does not exceed the bioconcentration threshold of 2000 as per Annex XIII of REACH regulation. Thus, it was concluded that 3,4,5,6-tetrachloro-2-(1,4,5,8-tetrabromo-6-hydroxy-3- oxoxanthen-9-yl) benzoic acid (CAS no. 18472-87-2) does not qualify as bio-accumulative substance.
