Description of key information

Terrestrial Plants:


The effect of Guanidine nitrate on germination and growth of wheat seedlings was tested for 14 days. At a Guanidine nitrate concentration: 200 µg N/g soil, GuNi 45.9%N; 435mgGuNi/Kg soil) there was no adverse affect in wheat growth and germination. The response of wheat dry matter production was the same as with urea. This test was used for NOEC derivation according to Guidance R7c, p. 112 (2008).


 


Terrestrial Microorganism:


The ability of soil microorganism to mineralize guanidine carbon was tested with radiolabelled guanidinium. At a concentration of 96 mg nitrate /Kg soil ww (196 mg Guanidinium nitrate / Kg soil ww), the mineralization rate of guanidinium carbon was 94% of the rate in absence of nitrate. (596 nM mineralized/24hours compared to 634nM mineralized/24hours.)


Nitrate showed only a slight tendency to inhibit guanidinium mineralization.
