- Effect conc.:
- 560 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- inhibition of total respiration
- Remarks:
- respiration rate
- Remarks on result:
- other: 13% inhibition compared to control
- Details on results:
- - Effect concentrations exceeding solubility of substance in test medium:The water solubility of Gasir1 was < 1.0E-4 g/l . Given this extremely low value and that no significant effects on respiration was observed in the range-finding tests at 100, 180 and 320 mg/l, it was considered justifiable to conduct the definitive study at a nominal test concentration in excess of the water solubility of the test material.
- % inhibition at concentrations tested:
320 mg/l: 4%
560 mg/l: 13%
1000 mg/l: 20%
1800 mg/l: 27%
3200 mg/l: 29% - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid? yes
- Relevant effect levels: EC50 (30min) = 12mg/l; EC50 (3h) = 10mg/l
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The effect of the test material on the respiration of activated sludge micro-organisms gave a 3-hour EC50 of greater than 3200mg/l. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) after 3 hours exposure was 560mg/l. No verification on the determination of this value was given. An EC10 value of 374 mg/l was calculated based on the presented data and a log-logistic model (TRAP 1.21).
