Additional information

The inhibitory effect of the Acid Blue 280 on aerobic waste-water bacteria was investigated following the OECD guideline 209. It should be considered that the test sample has a low content of Acid Blue 280, thus test results should be taken with caution.

The method determines the respiration rate (oxygen consumption) of an aerobic actlvated sludge fed with an excess but standard amount of biodegradable food as compared to the respiration rate obtained in an activated sludge run under identical conditions but containing the test chemical. The nominal test concentrations applied were 10 and 100 mg/l. Under the tested condltions, the respiration rate of the sludge was no inhibited at 3 hours (0.8 %) at the highest concentraton of 100 mg/l.
