APPLICATION OF TEST SUBSTANCE TO SOIL
- Method: Sieved soil (2 mm) was treated with either 10 g ground quartz sand/kg dry wt soil (control) or a mixture of quartz sand and test item (0.81 mg or 8.05 mg/kg dry wt soil). The samples were mixed with pulverized lucerne-grass-green meal (5000 mg/kg dry wt soil) and quartz sand in 3 liter polyethylene containers by rolling on a gyrowheel mixer (Elte 650, J. Engelsmann AG, Ludwigshafen, Germany) for 15 min at 50 rpm. In separate studies it was determined that mixing substances into soils as described gives a homogeneous and reproducible distribution (Blumenstock, 1989, Bayer AG, Report No. BSI/70889). Since the soils were not extracted and analyzed, values given for the active ingredients are nominal. - Test organisms (inoculum):

Soil #1: Plant protection chemicals have not been used on this field since 1981. Grass was planted in 1987, summer wheat in 1988, winter rye in 1988/89, winter barley in 1989/90, winter wheat in 1990/91, grass in Spring 1991, summer wheat in 1993, winter rye in 1993/1994 and winter barley in 1994/1995. At the beginning of the experiments, Soil 1 held 0.62 mg NH4-N- and 8.17 mg NO3-N/kg dry wt soil.
Soil #2: Plant protection chemicals have not been used on this field since 1988. Since 1985, crop rotation has been as follows: 1985/86, summer barley; 1986/87, winter barley; 1987/88, oats; Fall 1988, winter barley ploughed up, perennial ryegrass planted. The last fertilizer was applied in the Fall of 1988. At the beginning of the experiments, Soil 2 held 1.26 mg NH4-N- and 45.36 mg NO3-N/kg dry wt soil.
- Treatments with pesticides or fertilizers: see above

- % clay: see Table 1 & 2 under "Any other information on materials and methods incl. tables" below
- Soil taxonomic classification: Soil #1: loamy sand; Soil #2: loamy silt
- pH: The pH-values were determined by stirring 10 g dry wt soil with 50 ml IN KC1 and measuring immediately with a pH electrode.
- Maximum water holding capacity (in % dry weigth): about 40%
- Pretreatment of soil: Soils were collected on 15 Oct. 1996. They were passed through a 2 mm sieve and stored until used, as described in the BBA Guideline (1990: Guidelines for the Official Testing of Plant Protectants, Part VI, 1-1, Influence on the Activity of the Soil Microflora, BBA, Braunschweig, Germany, Macrh 1990, 2nd ed.) and ISO/DIS 1036-6 (1992: Soil Quality - Sampling - Part 6: Guidance on the Collection, Handling and Storage of Soil for the Assessment of Aerobic Microbial Processes in the Laboratory)

Overall result:
The test item did not cause a change in soil pH.
Trace quantities of nitrite were found in all samples (control and treated samples).
During 28-day experiments, in soils amended with lucerne-grass-green-meal (5000 mg/kg), it was found that 0.81 mg test item/kg dry wt soil (equivalent to 0.6 kg a.i. product/ha) and the 10-fold overdose of the compound (8.05 mg/kg dry wt soil equivalent to 6.0 kg a.i. product/ha) had no meaningful influence on the turnover of nitrogen in either a loamy sand or a loamy silt.

Overall result:
The test item did not cause a change in soil pH.
During the 28-day experiments, 0.81 mg product/kg dry wt soil (0.6 kg a.i. product/ha) and 8.05 mg product/kg dry wt soil (6.0 kg a.i. product/ha) had no meaningful influence on respiration after adding glucose to the loamy sand or the loamy silt.
Description of key information
EC50 (28 d) > 8.05 mg/kg soil dw (nominal, similar to OECD 216 & 217, nitrogen & carbon transformation)
EC10 (28 d) > 8.05 mg/kg soil dw (nominal, similar to OECD 216 & 217, nitrogen & carbon transformation)
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Long-term EC10 or NOEC for soil microorganisms:
- 8.05 mg/kg soil dw
Additional information
Two studies are available investigating the toxicity of the test substance to soil microorganisms. One study addresses the influence of the test item on nitrogen transformation in soils (1997a), the second study investigated the influence on carbon transformation (1997b). Both studies were conducted according to GLP and followed the principles of the "Guidelines for the Official Testing of Plant Protectants, Part VI, 1-1, Influence on the Activity of the Soil Microflora" (BBA Braunschweig, Germany, March 1990, 2nd ed.). This guideline is equivalent to OECD guidelines 216 and 217 for nitrogen transformation and carbon transformation, respectively. In the first study (1997a) the influence of 0.81 mg and 8.05 mg test item/kg dry wt soil on nitrogen mineralization in two agricultural soils, i.e. a loamy sand (0.8% org. C, pH (KCl) 6.1) and a loamy silt (2.3% org. C, pH (KCl) 7.1) was tested. The test lasted 28-days and soils were amended with lucerne-grass-green-meal. Both doses, the lower and the 10-fold overdose, had no meaningful influence on the turnover of nitrogen in either soil. Thus, the test item is regarded as having no significant influence on nitrogen transformation and an EC10 (28 d) of > 8.05 mg/kg soil dw and an EC50 (28 d) > 8.05 mg/kg soil dw were derived. The same effect values were determined in the carbon transformation test (1997b), using the same concentrations of test item, as well as the same two soil types. During the 28-day experiments the test substance had no influence on soil respiration after the addition of glucose to both of the test soils. Thus, the test item is regarded as having no significant influence on the degradation of organic carbon in soils.
