Remarks:

study conducted under GLP and according to DIN 38412 part 27 (1992). According to ECHA endpoint specific guidance chapter 7b (2012), subchapter toxicty tests with bacteria (page 149), "In general, preference is given to tests with a mixed inoculum that assess the functioning of the entire microbial community in an STP, rather than tests based on single species or even microbial sub-systems ... Often inhibition test data on individual bacterial species may be available. Results of the cell multiplication inhibition test with P. putida (Bringmann and Kühn 1980) should be used for calculation of the PNECmicro-organisms only in cases where no other test results are available."
