Materials and methods

Principles of method if other than guideline:
The test organism (Dugesia japonica) collected from a stream was cut into 2 parts and the body part was used for the head regeneration test carried out for 7 days after head cutting. The degree of regeneration was classified as normal, eye spot, tetratophthalmic, anophthalmic, aciphthalmic and death.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
not specified
Conclusions:
In the test conditions, DEHP had no effect on the head regeneration of Dugesia japonica at the highest concentration tested. In consequence, the authors derivated an EC50 above 1 mg/L.
