- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: the test material was weighed directly into the test vessels and diluted with deionised water.
- Eluate: deionised water
- Controls: blank control (equal volume of activated sludge and synthetic medium but not test or reference item), abiotic control (prepared by omitting the inoculum from the test mixtures), positive control (3,5-dichlorophenol)
- Evidence of undissolved material (e.g. precipitate, surface film, etc.): not specified. - Test organisms (species):
- activated sludge of a predominantly domestic sewage
- Details on inoculum:
- - Name and location of sewage treatment plant where inoculum was collected:
aeration tank of the City of Warsaw's sewage treatment plant ”Czajka”, receiving predominantly domestic sewage.
- Preparation of inoculum for exposure: The sludge was used as collected but coarse particles were removed by settling for a short period and decanting the upper layer of finer solids. The sludge was decanted for a period (15 minutes) to produce a clear supernatant and pellet of sewage solids. The supernatant liquid was discarded and the sludge was resuspended in chlorine-free tap water, with shaking and aeration, and the wash-water was removed by decantation and discarding again. The washing and decantation process was repeated four times. The dry mass of a known volume (100 ml) of the re-suspended sludge was determined and the sludge concentrated by removing liquor or diluted further in chlorine-free tap water to obtain the required sludge solids concentration of 3 g/L. The activated sludge was continuously aerated (3 L/minute) at the test temperature, and was used on the next day. The sludge was fed daily with the synthetic sewage feed (50 mL synthetic sewage feed/L activated sludge) for two additional days. - Test type:

TEST MEDIUM / WATER PARAMETERS
- Source/preparation of dilution water: deionised water was used for dilution, and chlorine–free tap water for activated sludge washing.
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: yes
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable):
- Inhibition of total oxygen uptake: At the end of 3 hour incubations, samples were withdrawn to measure the rate of decrease of the concentration of dissolved oxygen in a completely filled BOD bottle. The measurements were made individually. A sample from the first aeration vessel was transferred to fill a BOD bottle and the concentration of dissolved oxygen was immediately measured with the self-stirring oxygen electrode. From the data collected, the specific respiration rates of the control and test mixtures were calculated; the percentage inhibition was then calculated.
- Differentiation between inhibition of heterotrophic respiration and nitrification: The use of the specific nitrification inhibitor N-allylthiourea (ATU) enabled the direct assessment of the inhibitory effects of test item on heterotrophic oxidation, and by subtracting the oxygen uptake rate in the presence of ATU from the total uptake rate (no ATU present), the effects on the rate of nitrification were calculated. Two sets of reaction mixtures were prepared, but additionally, ATU was added to each mixture of one set at a final concentration of 11.6 mg/l, which is known to inhibit nitrification completely in sludge with suspended solids concentrations of up to 3000 mg/l. The oxygen uptake rates was measured after the exposure period; these direct values represent heterotrophic respiration only, and the differences between these and the corresponding total respiration rates represent nitrification. The various degrees of inhibition were then calculated.

- Coefficient of variation of oxygen uptake rate in control replicates: below 30% - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid: yes
- Relevant effect levels: the values obtained for the reference item were all within the acceptance criteria, i.e. EC50 (total r.) = 4.57 mg/L (within range 2- 25 mg/L), EC50 (heterotrophic r.) = 8.03 mg/L (within range 5 - 40 mg/L), and EC50 (nitrification r.) = 0.20 mg/L (within range 0.1 - 10 mg/L). - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- see 'overall remarks'.
- Conclusions:
- Under test conditions, the EC50 values were not determinable because they were above the highest concentration tested. It can be assumed that EC50 > 1000 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
A study on the activated sludge respiration inhibition of the test item was carried out according to OECD 209 (GLP study). The respiration rates of samples of activated sludge from a sewage treatment plant treating predominantly domestic sewage (1.5 g/L suspended solids) and fed with synthetic sewage was measured in an enclosed cell containing an oxygen electrode after a contact time (incubation) of 3 hours, at concentrations of 1.0, 10.0, 100.0, 1000.0, 10000 mg/L (nominal). The inhibition of three different oxygen uptakes was determined, total, heterotrophic only and due to nitrification. Blank controls, abiotic controls and positive controls (3,5 -dichlorophenol, tested at 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 and 100 mg/L) were run in parallel. All validity criteria were fulfilled.

Description of key information
Key study. Method according to OECD 209, GLP study. It can be assumed that EC50 > 1000 mg/L for the test item.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for microorganisms:
- 1 000 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for microorganisms:
- 0.1 mg/L
Additional information
A study on the activated sludge respiration inhibition of the test item was carried out according to OECD 209 (GLP study). The respiration rates of samples of activated sludge from a sewage treatment plant treating predominantly domestic sewage (1.5 g/L suspended solids) and fed with synthetic sewage was measured in an enclosed cell containing an oxygen electrode after a contact time (incubation) of 3 hours, at concentrations of 1.0, 10.0, 100.0, 1000.0, 10000 mg/L (nominal). The inhibition of three different oxygen uptakes was determined, total, heterotrophic only and due to nitrification. Blank controls, abiotic controls and positive controls (3,5 -dichlorophenol, tested at 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0 and 100 mg/L) were run in parallel. All validity criteria were fulfilled.
The following values 3h-ECX (mg/L) were determined:

The EC50 values were not determinable because they were above the highest concentration tested. It can be assumed that EC50 > 1000 mg/L for the test item.
