Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
OECD Guideline 301 B (Ready Biodegradability: CO2 Evolution Test)
Deviations:
yes
Remarks:
Due to the poor solubility of the test substance in water, an emulsifier was used to achieve a better distribution in the medium.
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
