Miljöpåverkan
Atropin
Miljörisk:
Risk för miljöpåverkan av atropin kan inte uteslutas då ekotoxikologiska data saknas.
Nedbrytning:
Det kan inte uteslutas att atropin är persistent, då data saknas.
Bioackumulering:
Atropin har låg potential att bioackumuleras.

Environmental Risk Classification
Predicted Environmental Concentration (PEC)
PEC is calculated according to the following formula:
PEC (μg/L) = calculated with F pen refined according to the guideline EMA/CHMP/SWP/4447/00 Rev. 1 coming in force inJuly 2019 (I).
Where:
With:
DOSEai = Maximum daily dose consumed per inhabitant = 3 mg (II)
Fpen = Percentage of market penetration = 0.01 (II)
WASTEWinhab = Amount of wastewater per inhabitant per day = 200 L/inh/day (II)
DILUTION = dilution factor = 10 (II)
PECSURFACEWATER= 0.015 µg/L (II)
Since this value is higher than 0.01 µg/L a Fpen refined has been used.
With:
PREGION Prevalence for the region = 0.025 (II)
tTreatment Duration of one period treatment: 1 day (II)
nTreatment Number of treatment / year: as calculated : 1 treatment (II)
Nd : Number of day / year: 365
Fpen refined = 0.0000685
PECSURFACEWATER = 0.000103 µg/L
Predicted No Effect Concentration (PNEC)
Risk of environmental impact of Atropine cannot be excluded, since no ecotoxicity data are available.
Degradation
The potential for persistence of Atropine cannot be excluded, due to lack of data.
Bioaccumulation
Partitioning coefficient:
Log Kow = -3.2 at pH 7 (guideline OECD 107). (II)
Justification of chosen bioaccumulation phrase:
Since log Kow < 4 at pH 7, the substance has low potential for bioaccumulation.
