SOURCE AND PROPERTIES OF SUBSTRATE (if soil)
- Composition (if artificial substrate):

- 0.20 % calcium carbonate
- Maximum water holding capacity: 37.2 g/100 g dry weight
- Pretreatment of soil: Artificial soil was moistened to 27 % of the maximum water holding capacity two days prior to test initiation.
- Storage (condition, duration): Moistened soil was kept covered to prevent evaporative water losses, 2 days
OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Photoperiod: 16 h light:8 h dark
- Light intensity: 400-800 lx
- Feeding during test: Cattle manure (contamination status not specified), weekly
- Moistening: Replicates were weighed weekly. Evaporated water was replenished by adding demineralised water to maintain the soil moisture. Additional moistening was performed in case the soil appeared too dry.

- Details on results:
- - Mortality at end of exposure period: No significant mortality (< 10 %) was observed in the controls and all test concentrations
- Total mass of adults at beginning of test: 0.33-0.59 g per individual
- Changes in body weight of live adults (% of initial weight) at end of exposure period: 30.8 ± 7.22 % (control)
- No. of offspring produced: 79 ± 14 juveniles (control)
- Morphological abnormalities: No significant morphological symptoms were observed in the controls and all test concentrations.
- Behavioural abnormalities: No significant behavioural abnormalities were observed in the controls and all test concentrations. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Tests with the reference substance are conducted once every 12 months. In the most recent test (2016-01-21 to 2016-03-18), no effects on the reproduction of Eisenia fetida after 56 days were observed at 0.5 and 1.0 mg a.s./kg soil dry weight. Significant effects (ANOVA, α = 0.05) occurred at 2.0 and 4.0 mg a.s./kg soil dry weight. These results are in accordance with OECD 222, which states that significant effects of Carbendazim should be observed between 1.0 and 5.0 mg a.s./ kg soil dry weight.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- For the effect on biomass, Williams Multiple Sequential t-test Procedure (α = 0.05) was carried out for the determination of significant differences in biomass compared to the control. A Normality Test and an Equal Variance Test were conducted prior to running this test. For the effect on reproduction, significant differences were determined in comparison with the control group by t-test (α = 0.05). A Shapiro-Wilk Normality Test and Equal Variance Test were run beforehand. For the determination of the EC20 value, a regression analysis was performed (coefficient of determination (R2) and equation of the linear regression are not reported).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Adult mortality in control < 10 %; Average number of juveniles in control > 30 per replicate; Coefficient of variation for reproduction of control < 30 %
- Conclusions:
- The test item showed no effect on the mortality and biomass of adult Eisenia fetida after 28 days exposure in this earthworm toxicity test conducted in artificial soil according to OECD test guideline 222 (28 d NOEC (mortality/biomass): 500 mg test item/kg dry soil weight (nominal)). An effect on the reproduction rate of Eisenia fetida was observed after 56 days exposure and an EC20 of 343 mg test item/kg dry soil weight (nominal) was determined, as well as a NOEC of 250 mg test item/kg dry soil weight (nominal) and a LOEC of 500 mg test item/kg dry soil weight (nominal).
