Additional information

No specific studies on Branched CaDDBS were available. However, a study is available whose purpose was to determine the toxicity of three commercial LAS products to the activated sludge of a treatment plant basically operating on domestic sewage. A contact time of 3 h instead of 15 minutes was chosen to better simulate the real residence time used in wastewater treatment plants (4-6 h).  The 3-hr EC50 to activated sludge was 550 mg/L for a C11.6 LAS sodium salt.
