- TEST CONDITIONS
- Composition of medium: according to OECD and EU guideline
- Test temperature: 20-23°C
- pH: 7.6-7.7
- pH adjusted: no
- Aeration of dilution water: yes
- Suspended solids concentration: 2.9 g/L
- Continuous darkness: test done in brown coloured bottles
TEST SYSTEM
- Culturing apparatus: 2 litre all-glass brown coloured bottles
- Number of culture flasks/concentration: 2
- Method used to create aerobic conditions: Bubbling CO2-free air through the solution at a rate of approximately 1-2 bubbles per second (ca. 30-100 mL/min).
- Measuring equipment: Titration
- Details of trap for CO2 and volatile organics if used: Three CO2-absbrbers (bottles filled with 100 mL 0.0125 H Ba(OH)2) were connected in series to the exit air line of each test bottle.
SAMPLING
- Sampling frequency: every second or third day during the first 10 days, and thereafter at least every fifth day until the 28th day
- Sampling method: Each time the CO2-absorber nearest to the test bottle was removed for titration; each of the remaining two absorbers was moved one position in the direction of the test bottle. A new CO2-absorber was placed at the far end of the series. Phenolphthalein was used as pH-indicator.
CONTROL AND BLANK SYSTEM
- Inoculum blank: containing only inoculum (2 bottles)
- Toxicity control: yes
- Positive control: containing reference substance (ca. 40 mg/L sodium acetate (Merck art. 6268, batch 049 TA933768), TOC= 12 mg/L) and inoculum (1 bottle).
STATISTICAL METHODS:
Calculations were based on the actual normality without rounding off. Relative degradation values was calculated from the cumulative CO2 production relative to the total expected CO2 production based on the total carbon content of the amount of test material present in the test bottles. They were plotted versus time together with the relative degradation of the positive control. - Reference substance:
- other: sodium acetate
- Test performance:
- The positive control substance was degraded 66% in 14 days and 77% degradation was reached at the end of the test period.
The total CO2 release in the blank reached a total value of 12 mg CO2 per 2 litres of medium.
The difference of duplicate values for %-degradation of the test substance was always less than 20. - Parameter:
- % degradation (CO2 evolution)
- Value:
- < 1
- Sampling time:
- 28 d
- Details on results:
- The concentration was 37.0 and 37.2 mg test substance in 2 litres test medium. Hence, the theoretical CO2 production following complete degradation was 109.1 and 109.7 per 2 litres.
The relative degradation values calculated from the measurements performed during the test period revealed no significant (>10%) degradation of the test substance. In the toxicity control more than 25% degradation occurred in 14 days (based on ThCO2). Therefore, the test substance was assumed to be not inhibitory. - Results with reference substance:
- The positive control contained 80.9 mg sodium acetate (ThCO2= 1.073 mg CO2/mg) resulting in a theoretical CO2 production following complete degradation of 86.8 mg per 2 litres. The toxicity control contained 80.9 mg sodium acetate and 37 mg test substance in 2 litres of test medium. Hence, the theoretical CO2 production following complete degradation of the test substance plus sodium acetate was 195.9 mg per 2 litres.

Referenceopen allclose all
The biological oxygen demand of the test substance was 0 mg/L ( n=3 ). No water-soluble metabolites was produced ( total organic carbon was 0 mg/L (n=3 )). After 28 day incubtion time, the six components were analyzed quantitatively by gas chromatographic method and it is proved that the six components remained to be unchanged ( biodegradability : 0 % ( n=3 )).
Description of key information
One study according to OECD guideline 301 B and two studies according to OECD 301 C are available. The studies revealed biodegradation rates ranging from 0 to < 4 %. Thus the substance is poorly biodegradable study performed.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Biodegradation in water:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
Additional information
The test substance is not readily biodegradable according to OECD criteria.
