- Deviations:
- no
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- EU Method C.4-C (Determination of the "Ready" Biodegradability - Carbon Dioxide Evolution Test)
- GLP compliance:

TEST SYSTEM
- Number of culture flasks/concentration: 2
SAMPLING
Degradation measured via TIC analysis after 0, 2, 5, 9, and 14 days
CONTROL AND BLANK SYSTEM
- Inoculum blank: 2 vessels
- Toxicity control: 1 vessel - Reference substance:
- benzoic acid, sodium salt
- Parameter:
- % degradation (CO2 evolution)
- Value:
- -76
- Sampling time:
- 14 d
- Remarks on result:
- other: mean of 2 determinations
- Details on results:
- The degree of degradation was -76 %. The negative value is due to mathematical calculation. The toxicity control (test plus reference item) reached -5 % in the course of 14 days. It can be assessed that the test item is inhibitory in the concentrations used here, because in the toxicity control batch less than 25 % degradation occurred within 14 days (see OECD 301). Therefore, the test was broken off after 15 days.
With the plate count determination in the batches a selection of species could be observed.
The normal diversity of species was reduced to max. two different, probably less sensitive types. The number of colony forming units was significantly higher as in the control item batch, but this may be due to the fact that the plate count determination was performed on a full medium.
Degradation products: not measured - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
