Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The inhibition of the movement of the worm Tubifex tubifex was studied by immersing 10 worms per test concentration into an aqueous solution of yclohexanol at a temperature of 20 °C. The concentration of cyclohexanol at which the movement of all worms was inhibited within 120 seconds was determined.
GLP compliance:
no

Results and discussion

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
The movement of the worm Tubifex tubifex was inhibited within 120 seconds at a concentration of 4800 mg/L in this experiment.
Executive summary:

A non-guideline, non-GLP study was conducted to study the effect of cyclohexanol on the worm Tubifex tubifex. Per experiments, ten worms were immersed in an aqueous solution of cyclohexanol and the inhibition of the worms over a period of 120 seconds was studied. At the concentration of 4800 mg/L, the movement of all worms was inhibited within 2 minutes.
