Additional information
The determination of the growth inhibition of the freshwater algae Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata (previously known as Raphidocelis subcapitata and Selenastrum capricornutum) exposed to the test item Di-tert-amyl peroxide for a duration of 72 hours was assessed according to the OECD Guideline 201. Algae were exposed to one concentration of 200 mg substance/L dissolved in dilution water.
It was concluded that Di-tert-amyl peroxide has no significant effect on growth rate of algae up to its water solubility limit.
