Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.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
The inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when introduced in appropriate low concentrations.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
The toxicity of Lysmeral to aquatic microorganisms was tested in a study according to OECD guideline 209 using domestic, activated sludge. After 180 minutes an EC10 of >100 mg/l was determined. An equivalent result was presented by a second study in compliance with OECD guideline 209. The respiration of domestic, activated sludge was inhibited by 20 % at an effective concentration >996.4 mg/l after 30 minutes (BASF AG, 1988). Comparable results were determined in studies focusing on single bacteria species. Two tests on the oxygen consumption inhibition by Lysmeral in Pseudomonas putida detected an EC50 of > 80000 mg/l and an EC0 of 2468 mg/l respectively (BASF AG, 1988, 1995).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
