- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: test item was directly weighed into test vessels to about 130 mL deionised water and was stirred before testing (equilibration phase) overnight for 16 hours. For the nitrification setup 2.32 g N-allylthiourea (ATU-solution) were weighed out and diluted with deionized water to 1 litre. 1.25 mL of the solution were given to all replicates for the determination of the heterotrophic oxidation immediately before start of the incubation period.
- Controls: 6 replicates without ATU and 4 replicates with ATU
- Other: Before use the wet weight/dry weight relationship of the activated sludge was determined by drying 10 mL of sludge suspension. Subsequently, a sludge suspension of 2 g (dry weight)/L was prepared. The pH of this suspension was measured and adjusted to 6-8. 8 mL of the synthetic medium and 100 mL of activated sludge were added to the dissolved test item. The mixture was filled up with deionised water to 250 mL and aerated at 20 ± 2 °C. To determine the heterotrophic oxidation four additional controls and two replicates with the test item concentration 100 mg/L, all containing 1.25 mL of ATU-solution (N-allylthiourea), which equals to a final concentration of 11.6 mg ATU/L, were prepared. - Test organisms (species):

- Method of cultivation: aeration of the activated sludge at 20 ± 2 °C, daily fed with synthetic medium
- Preparation of inoculum for exposure: Sludge was settled and the supernant was decanted. The sludge was centrifuged and the supernant was decanted.

Reference
Results of ATU set-up for oxygen consumption based on nitrification:
As no inhibition was observed for the total oxygen consumption at 100 mg/L no differences between the heterotrophic and the nitrification oxygen uptake rates have to be calculated.
Results of abiotic control:
As nearly no physico-chemical oxygen consumption was observed at that test item concentration this observation also holds true for the lower test item concentrations.

- 100 mg/L
Additional information
One experimental study was conducted in accordance with OECD Guideline 209 and EU Methode C.11 under GLP conditions (M-585194-01-1). The activated sludge was exposed to the test item at a limit test item concentration of 100 mg/L without ATU (N-allylthiourea) representing the total microbial community and with ATU representing the heterotrophic part of the microbial community. By subtracting the oxygen uptake rate in the presence of ATU from the total uptake rate, the effects on the rate of nitrification are calculated. The respiration rate of each mixture was determined after aeration periods of 3 hours. The test item showed 2.1% respiration inhibition of activated sludge at a test item concentration of 100 mg/L. No physico-chemical oxygen consumption was observed at that test item concentration. As no inhibition was observed for the total oxygen consumption at 100 mg/L no differences between the heterotrophic and the nitrification oxygen uptake rates have to be calculated. The EC50 (3 h) is higher than 100 mg/L. The NOEC (3 h) is equal or higher than 100 mg/L. The effect value relates to a nominal concentration, since no analytical monitoring was performed.
