The drop in pressure is detected and converted into an electrical signal by means of an electrode type manometer. The consumed oxygen is replaced by electrolytically generated oxygen from copper sulfate solution.

- Results with reference substance:
- The initial DOC concentration (measured after 3 hours of exposure) of the test solution containing the reference compound Aniline rapidly decreased by 92 % within the first seven days of exposure. Consequently, the validity criterion of 70 % DOC-removal within 14 days of exposure was fulfilled. At the end of the test (day 28), Aniline was completely biodegraded (100%).
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:

- Conclusions:
- FAT 40549/A was non-biodegradable in the "Zahn-Wellens / EMPA Test" over the 28-day exposure period to microorganisms from a domestic waste water treatment plant.
- Executive summary:
FAT 40549/A was investigated for its biodegradability in the "28-Day Zahn-Wellens / EMPA Test" according to method OECD guideline 302B.
The mean concentration of DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) in the test flasks containing the test article varied from 57.0 mg/L to 61.9 mg/L over the exposure period of 28 days and was higher in comparison to the initial mean DOC concentration of 56.2 mg/L measured on day 0 after 3 hours of exposure.
Practically no DOC-removal was observed during the first three hours of exposure.
Consequently, FAT 40549/A was found to be non-biodegradable over the 28-day test period. The reference compound Aniline ultimately biodegraded by 92 % within seven days of exposure. At the end of the test (day 28), positive control aniline was completely biodegraded (100 %), indicating the test system being valid.

Additional information
The ready biodegradability of FAT 40'549/A was investigated in the "Manometric Respirometry Test" over a period of 28 days. The reference compound Aniline was readily biodegraded by an average of 80.3 % and 81.8 % on exposure day 14 and at the end of the 10-day window between exposure day 15 and 16, respectively. Aniline reached an average biodegradation rate of 86.3 % by the end of the test (day 28). In the toxicity control, containing both FAT 40'549/A and the reference compound Aniline, no inhibitory effect on the microorganisms was observed. Only a very slight biochemical oxygen demand (2 mg O2/l) was measured for the test article in the two test flasks over the 28-day exposure period. Therefore, FAT 40'549/A was found to be practically non-biodegradable (2.7 %) under the test conditions over 28 days.
The inherent biodegradability of FAT 40'549/A was investigated in the "28-Day Zahn-Wellens / EM PA Test". The mean concentration of DOC (Dissolved Organic Carbon) in the test flasks containing the test article varied from 57.0 mg/l to 61.9 mg/l over the exposure period of 28 days and was higher in comparison to the initial mean DOC concentration of 56.2 mg/l measured on day 0 after 3 hours of exposure. Practically no DOC-removal was observed during the first three hours of exposure. Consequently, FAT 40'549/A was found to be non-biodegradable over the 28-day test period.
In conclusion, FAT 40'549/A was non-biodegradable.
