Description of key information

The effect of the test substance on the respiration of activated sewage sludge micro-organisms was assessed according to OECD Test Guideline 209.  The effect concentration was assessed at 3-Hour  and gave an EC50 of 540 mg/L. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) after 3 hours exposure was 100 mg/L.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for microorganisms:
540 mg/L
EC10 or NOEC for microorganisms:
100 mg/L

Additional information

Activated sewage sludge was exposed to an aqueous solution of the test material for a period of three hours at 21 °C with the addition of synthetic sewage as a respiratory substrate. The rate of respiration was determined after 30 minutes and three hours contact time.

The effect of the test material on the respiration of activated sewage sludge micro-organisms gave a 3-Hour EC50 of 540 mg/L. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) after 3 hours exposure was 100 mg/L.
