Reference
Endpoint:
activated sludge respiration inhibition testing
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
key study
Study period:
2012-08-16 - 2012-09-13
Reliability:
1 (reliable without restriction)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
guideline study
Qualifier:
according to guideline
Guideline:
other: OECD Guideline 301 D (Ready Biodegradabality: Closed Bottle Test)
Deviations:
no
Principles of method if other than guideline:
In biodegradation test OECD 301 D the oxygen consumption corresponded to 30.6% of the ThOD after 14 days in the toxicity control. Therefore the test item can be considered not inhibitory to the inoculum according to this test guideline
GLP compliance:
yes (incl. QA statement)
Test organisms (species):
sewage, domestic
Details on inoculum:
Secondary effluent from a municipal wastewater treatment plant in Usserød, Denmark, wihich predominantly receives domestic sewage
Total exposure duration:
28 d
Reference substance (positive control):
yes
Remarks:
benzoic acid, sodium salt
Duration:
28 d
Dose descriptor:
other: oxygen consumption
Effect conc.:
30.6 other: % of ThOD
Nominal / measured:
meas. (not specified)
Conc. based on:
other: oxygen elektrode
Basis for effect:
inhibition of total respiration
Remarks:
respiration rate
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
In biodegradation test OECD 301 D the oxygen consumption corresponded to 30.6% of the ThOD after 14 days in the toxicity control. Therefore the test item can be considered not inhibitory to the inoculum according to this test guideline
Remark: The test solution contains NaOH due to the production method.
Executive summary:

In biodegradation test OECD 301 D the oxygen consumption corresponded to 30.6% of the ThOD after 14 days in the toxicity control. Therefore the test item can be considered not inhibitory to the inoculum according to this test guideline

Description of key information

OECD 301 D, 28 days, domestic sewage: oxygen consumption corresponded to 30.6% of the ThOD after 14 days in the toxicity control. Therefore the tested substance can be considered not inhibitory to the inoculum.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
