- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
Dosage of Test Item: Appropriate amounts of test item were directly weight into the test vessels and test water was added. The composition was stirred intensively.
Test Concentrations: Nominal 10, 32, 100, 320 and 1000 mg test item/L (five replicates each)
Control: Six controls (pure water, synthetic sewage feed and inoculum, but without addition of the test item) were tested in parallel.
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- activated sludge of a predominantly domestic sewage
- Details on inoculum:
- Origin: Activated sludge, microorganisms from a domestic waste water treatment plant was supplied by the municipal sewage treatment plant Bensheim, Germany.
Conditioning: The activated sludge used for this study was used as collected, but coarse particles were removed by settling for a short period (15 minutes) and then the upper layer decanted. During holding prior to use the sludge was fed with 50 mL synthetic sewage feed (see below) per litre and kept aerated at room temperature overnight.
An aliquot of the final sludge suspension was weighed, dried and the ratio of wet sludge to its dry weight determined. Based on the sludge dry matter, calculated amounts of wet sludge were suspended in pure water to yield a concentration equivalent to 3 g/L on dry weight basis. This level gives a concentration of 1.5 g/L suspended solids in the test medium. The pH of the activated sludge inoculum was 7.3 and therefore no adjustment necessary.

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
For the measurement of the respiration rate a well-mixed sample of each test medium was poured into a Karlsruher flask after 3 hours incubation time. The oxygen concentration was then measured with an oxygen electrode and recorded for about ten minutes. During measurement, the samples were continuously stirred on a magnetic stirrer. The oxygen consumption (in mg O2 L-1 minute-1) was determined from the most linear part of the respiration curve in the range between 9.2 and 0.3 mg O2/L for total respiration and between 9.3 and 0.8 mg O2/L for heterotrophic respiration. In case of low oxygen consumption the values over a period of 10 minutes were used. In case of a faster drop off below 2 mg O2/L, shorter time intervals were used.
The dissolved oxygen concentrations were determined at the start and at the end of the incubation period in at least one replicate of all test concentrations and controls. The pH-value was determined at the start and at the end in at least one replicate of the test concentrations and controls. The water temperature was measured in one control medium at the start and the end of the incubation period.

- Details on results:
- Total Respiration Rate: The respiration rates of all test item concentrations between 10 mg/L and 1000 mg/L were not significantly different from the control.
In comparison to the inoculum controls, the total respiration rates of the activated sludge were not inhibited at any test item concentration. The inhibition was 10.0%, 2.1%, 4.2%, 4.1% and 2.1% for test item concentrations of 10, 32, 100, 320 and 1000 mg/L, respectively
3-hour EC10, EC20 and 3-hour EC50 and NOEC based on Total Respiration: No meaningful 3-hour ECx values could be determined for total respiration; the NOEC was determined to be higher or equal than a test item concentration of 1000 mg/L.
Heterotrophic Respiration Rate: The respiration rates of all test item concentrations between 10 mg/L and 1000 mg/L were not significantly different from the control. In comparison to the inoculum controls, the heterotrophic respiration rates of the activated sludge were not inhibited at any test item concentration. The inhibition was 15.3%, 3.1%, -27.95%, -11.3% and -14.7% for test item concentrations of 10, 32, 100, 320 and 1000 mg/L, respectively.
No meaningful 3-hour ECx values could be determined for heterotrophic respiration; the NOEC was determined to be higher or equal than a test item concentration of 1000 mg/L.
Respiration Rate based on Nitrification: As the test item has no effect on the total and heterotrophic respiration, it can be supposed that the test item has no effect on the nitrification respiration. The determined effects by the statistical program are mathematical inconsistencies of the calculation method. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
