- Relevant effect levels: EC50: 104 mg/L - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The NOEC was determined by calculation of statistical significance of the inhibition of respiration in comparison to the control. One Way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and DUNNETT’s test was used for NOEC calculations. When running a One Way Analysis of Variance a Normality test and an Equal Variance test were done first. P-values for both Normality and Equal Variance test are 0.05. The -value (acceptable probability of incorrectly concluding that there is a difference) is =0.05.
The EC-values of the test item and the reference item were calculated by sigmoidal dose-response regression and linear regression, respectively, using software GraphPadPrism. Calculations of the confidence intervals for the EC-values were carried out using standard procedures.
Any other information on results incl. tables
From the oxygen depletion the oxygen uptake rates were calculated in mg O2/L×h, additionally the specific respiration rates based on the dry sludge concentration were calculated in mg O2/g×h.
The inhibition of the oxygen uptake rates of the test and reference item concentrations in % was calculated in comparison with the oxygen uptake rates of the control.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The NOEC of Glucamide CC is 10 mg/L. The test item is not toxic at the concentration of 10 mg/L to activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant. The EC10 is 42.5 mg/L, the EC20 is 79.4 mg/L the EC50 is 171 mg/L and EC80 is 590 mg/L of the test item.
- Executive summary:
A Respiration Inhibition Test with activated sludge according to OECD Guideline No. 209 was carried out with the test itemGlucamide CC(batch number:EK13/177) from 2015-03-04 to 2015-03-05 inDr.U.Noack-Laboratorien, 31157 Sarstedt, Germany. The test system was activated sludge of the municipal treatment plant of 31137 Hildesheim, Germany. The test was carried out under static conditions with the test item concentrations10 - 32 - 100 - 320 - 1000 mg/L. The respiration rates of the control, reference and test item replicates were measured after a contact time of three hours, and the inhibitory effects of the test and reference item were determined in comparison to the control respiration rates. The mean inhibition of respiration for the test item replicates ranged from 4 % to 82 %.
In a pre-test additional replicates were prepared to determine the inhibition of nitrification. Two replicates with 1000 mg/L were measured with addition of Allylthiourea ATU (Final concentration: 11.6 mg/L). No indication for the requirement to measure the inhibition of nitrification in the definitive study was observed.
