- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Purity: 100%
- Analytical monitoring:
- no
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: test concentrations were prepared by direct addition and stock dilution - Test organisms (species):
- activated sludge of a predominantly domestic sewage
- Details on inoculum:
- - Name and location of sewage treatment plant where inoculum was collected:
Cambridge Sewage Treatment Works, Cowley Road, Cambridge
- Initial biomass concentration: 3.75 g/L (dry weight) on day of collection; 1.5 g/L (dry weight) for testing - Test type:
- static
- Water media type:
- freshwater
- Limit test:
- no
- Total exposure duration:
- 3 h
- Test temperature:
- 20.9 - 22.3 °C
- Nominal and measured concentrations:
- 3.33, 33.33, 1000 mg/L
- Details on test conditions:
- TEST SYSTEM
- Test vessel: 500 mL conical flasks
- Aeration: continually aerated for 3 hours
- No. of vessels per concentration (replicates): 1 for 2.22 and 33.33 mg/L and 3 for 1000 mg/L
- No. of vessels per control (replicates): 2
- No. of vessels per abiotic control (replicates): 3
- Sludge concentration (weight of dry solids per volume): 1.50 g/L
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED: Dissolved oxygen for 10 minutes following 3 hour exposure - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- 3,5-dichlorophenol
- Duration:
- 3 h
- Dose descriptor:
- EC50
- Effect conc.:
- > 1 000 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- inhibition of total respiration
- Details on results:
- - The mean blank respiration rate for this study was 23.08 mg oxygen/g dry weight activated sludge/hour.
- The coefficient of variation for oxygen uptake in the control replicates for this study was 19.15%. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- In this study the EC50 of the 3,5-dichlorophenol was 2.84 mg/L
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The 3 hour EC50 value of the test substance was determined to be > 1000 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
The activated sludge respiration inhibition of the test substance was assessed according to OECD 209 under GLP conditions.
The test substance did not cause any significant effects on activated sludge respiration inhibition at the concentrations tested, up to and including 1000 mg/L. The results of the abiotic control flask (test without addition of inocula) indicated that there would be no reduction in oxygen concentration in any of the test vessels up to, and including, 1000 mg/L of the test substance, attributable to processes in the test system other than those due to the activity of the activated sludge. The 3 hour EC50 value of the test substance was determined to be >1000 mg/L.
