Applicant's summary and conclusion

Executive summary:

The toxic threshold concentration for 8-day growth of Scenedesmus quadricauda was found to be 2370 mg/L. Based on the estimated study the result obtained for the alga indicates that the substance is not toxic to the aquatic algal environment. These measures were observed based on the mesurements taken on general population changes for 8 days.
