Description of key information

EC0(30 min) >= 260 mg/L (nominal, active ingredient) for activated sludge (ISO8192, part B)

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

One study investigating the toxicity of the test substance to aquatic microorganisms is available. The study was performed according to ISO guideline 8192 using activated sludge as inoculum (Wonner 1989).

1000 mg product/L (= 260 mg a.i./L) were tested in a limit test. After an incubation time of 30 minutes, no respiration inhibition was obsereved in the treatment compared to the control. Thus, the 30 min-EC0 is determined to be >= 260 mg a.i./L based on nominal concentrations.
