freshwater
Limit test:
no
Total exposure duration:
3 h
Test temperature:
20 ± 2 °C
Nominal and measured concentrations:
Test concentrations: 400. 128 and 40 mg/l of the test substance.
100, 32 and 10 mg/l of the reference substance.

Key result
Duration:
3 h
Dose descriptor:
IC50
Effect conc.:
> 400 mg/L
Nominal / measured:
nominal
Conc. based on:
test mat.
Basis for effect:
inhibition of total respiration
Details on results:
No inhibition was seen at any of the test concentrations.
Results with reference substance (positive control):
The IC50 (3 h) of the reference substance 3,5-Dichlorophenol: 19 mg/l
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
IC50 (3 h) of the test substance FAT 40278/A was determined to be >400 mg/l.
Executive summary:

The toxicity of FAT 40278/A to activated sludge was determined in a 3-h respiration inhibition test guideline similar to OECD Guideline No. 209 (Method B.21). The test substance concentrations tested were 400, 128 and 40 mg/l. No inhibition was seen at any of the test concentrations. Based ont he findings of the study, IC50 (3 h) of the test substance FAT 40278/A was determined to be >400 mg/l.
