Conclusions:
The investigations to determine the influence of a CMP continuous treatment on the abundance of selected soil organisms and the nitrification activity of the soils depending on the N fertiliser type and the application period autumn/spring at different sites yielded the following result:
CMP has no influence on the population density of microorganisms and small arthropods in the soil.

Remarks:
Collembola
Type of information:
read-across from supporting substance (structural analogue or surrogate)
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
1989-1990
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
comparable to guideline study with acceptable restrictions
Justification for type of information:
CMP (1-carbamoyl-3-methylpyrazole) undergoes relatively rapid hydrolysis to 3-methylpyrazole (MP) in both water and soil.
In soil, the half-life for the conversion of CMP to 3-MP was 1-2.5 days.
The half-life for hydrolysis in aqueous solution was 35.0 - 85.5 days.
Therefore the study results for CMP for toxicity to terestrial organisms can be read-across to 3-methylpyrazole.
For detailed information of degradation and hydrolysis please see attached study report.

Description of key information

The investigations to determine the influence of a CMP which is rapidly decomposed to 3-methylpyrazole, continuous treatment on the abundance of selected soil organisms and the nitrification activity of the soils depending on the N fertiliser type and the application period autumn/spring at different sites yielded the following result:
CMP has no influence on the population density of microorganisms and small arthropods in the soil.
