Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
According to OECD 209 test method, the EC50 of Everlan SL65 for oxygen consumption rate of sludge was greater than 1000 mg/L.
Executive summary:

This test using the procedures outlined in the SuperLab Study Plan for M62-151100109001EN which is based on the SOP for the OECD 209 (SOPE-508) and OECD 209 (OECD, 2010). The results of this OECD 209 test for Everlan SL65 show that all validity criteria were met. The EC50 of Everlan SL65 for oxygen consumption rate of sludge was greater than 1000 mg/L.

 

Description of key information

The EC50 of Everlan SL65 for oxygen consumption rate of sludge was greater than 1000 mg/L (OECD TG 209).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for microorganisms:
1 000 mg/L

Additional information

For blank control groups at the end of the test, the coefficient of variation of oxygen consumption rate were less than 30% and the oxygen consumption rate greater than 20.00 mg/h of per one gram of sludge, respectively. The EC50 of reference control group (3,5-Dichlorophenol) was lied in the range between 2.00 and 25.00 mg/L. All test validity criteria were met. The EC50 of Everlan SL65 for oxygen consumption rate of sludge was greater than 1000 mg/L.
