Method of cultivation: the culturing of Selenastrum capricornutum for use in the alga growth inhibition test is carried out according to the procedure outlined in the Annex of OECD Guideline 201.

After an incubation period of 5 days, the cell density of the pre-culture is 2.0x10E6 cells/mL. Microscopic observation reveals that the pre-culture contains no deformed or abnormal algal cells.
Initial cell concentration: the initial cell concentration of Selenastrum caprucornutum in the test cultures is 1.0x10E4 cells/mL.
