Sampling and analysis
- Details on sampling:
- At the end of the three hour incubation period, a portion of each test preparation was transferred to an appropriate flask. A dissolved oxygen (DO) electrode was sealed in the neck of the flask, ensuring air was completely excluded. The flask contents (total volume 250 mL) were stirred at a constant rate during DO measurements. Oxygen consumption was measured over a period of up to 10 minutes.
Test solutions
- Details on test solutions:
- Range-Finder Test
Vessels were prepared at 1, 10, 100 and 1000 mg/L nominal concentrations by direct addition of the test substance to each vessel.
Two vessels were treated at all nominal test substance concentrations, with the exception of the 1000 mg/L test level which had three test vessels treated. Four blank controls were also prepared.
Definitive Test
Vessels were prepared at 9.5, 30.5, 97.7, 312.5 and 1000 mg/L nominal concentrations of the test substance to the test vessels. Five vessels were treated at all nominal test substance concentrations. Six blank controls were also prepared.
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- activated sludge, domestic
- Details on inoculum:
- The activated sludge inoculum was collected from the sludge return line at Burley Menston sewage treatment works (West Yorkshire, UK) which has a predominantly domestic catchment. The point of collection was to ensure that the activated sludge sample is relatively free of exogenous material.
The sludge was transported to the test facility in a closed container with an adequate headspace to prevent the sample becoming anoxic. On arrival at the test facility, the sludge was aerated with a compressed air supply delivered through a suitable distribution device.
The suspended solids concentration were determined gravimetrically and adjusted to 3 g/L ± 0.3 g/L. The sludge was maintained at 20 ± 2°C with aeration. During storage the sludge was fed with synthetic sewage concentrate at a rate of 50 mL/L.

- Test temperature:
- The sludge was maintained at 20 ± 2°C during the range-finder and definitive tests with aeration for the incubation period.
- pH:
- The pH of the sludge was pH 5.77 and was outside the permitted limits of pH 7.5 ± 0.5 and therefore required adjustment with the addition of 2M NaOH, the final pH of the sludge after adjustment was pH 7.33.

Vessels were prepared at 1, 10, 100 and 1000 mg/L nominal concentrations, by direct addition of the test substance to each vessel
Definitive Test
Vessels were prepared at 9.5, 30.5, 97.7, 312.5 and 1000 mg/L nominal concentrations, by direct addition of the test substance to the test vessels. - Details on test conditions:
- Each vessel contained a synthetic sewage concentrate (in accordance with OECD guideline no. 209), dechlorinated tap water and the test or reference substance as appropriate. Nitrification inhibitor (ATU) was added to appropriate vessels.
The reference substance and nitrification inhibitor (ATU) were added to the test system in aqueous solution where appropriate.
At appropriate intervals, test samples were inoculated and aerated immediately. After addition of the test substance, inoculum and additional water, nominal suspended solids concentration was 1500 mg/L. Each culture was aerated for ca. three hours by bubbling air through the test system. The rate of aeration was sufficient to keep the test samples adequately mixed.
Upon inspection, no observations were recorded to indicate a lack of dispersal or a deposition in the test system inner surfaces as far as was possible given the turbid nature of the test system. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Details on results:
- Variability of results is common in this study design, especially with substances of limited aqueous solubility, and as such statistical analysis and statistical significance is treated with caution (Reference OECD 209 Guideline). For this reason, inhibition of up to 20% is considered to be within normal limits. Considering this, the statistical analysis (p<0.05) observed at all rates in the total respiration endpoint are reported as supporting data. The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) cited here is based on observation and consider a 20% inhibition or enhancement to be within normal variation.
Mean inhibition of 15.84% was noted in the 9.5 mg/L treatment group. The inhibition noted was within normal variation (20%). Therefore, the NOEC was considered to be 9.5 mg/L.
A dose-related inhibition was observed and ranged from 21.8% at 30.5 mg/L to 92.93% at 1000 mg/L.
The EC50 values for inhibition of respiration resulting from the presence of the test item were estimated as follows:
-Total respiration 157.6 mg/L (108.9 to 312.4 fiducial limits)
The EC50 values for inhibition of respiration resulting from the presence of 3,5 DCP were estimated as follows:
-Total respiration 3.92 mg/L
This satisfied the validity criterion that the EC50 of the reference substance was between 2 and 25 mg/L for total respiration. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Not applicable

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The validity criteria applied to this study type were met and therefore the study is considered valid.
The following endpoints are applied to this study data:
NOEC Total respiration < 9.5 mg/L
LOEC Total respiration 30.5 mg/L
EC50 Total respiration 157.6 mg/L - Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to determine the no observable effect concentration (NOEC) and the 50% effect concentration (EC50) based on inhibition of the rate of oxygen consumption of activated sludge exposed to the test substance, where possible. The study was undertaken according to OECD Guideline 209, Activated Sludge, Respiration Inhibition Test (Carbon and Ammonium Oxidation), Adopted July, 2010.
A range-finding test, which is not fully reported, was undertaken in order to establish suitable dose levels for the definitive test.
The definitive test concentrations were 9.5, 30.5, 97.7, 312.5 and 1000 mg/L and were achieved by direct addition of the test substance to the test vessels.
The activated sludge inoculum was collected from the sludge return line at Burley Menston Sewage Treatment Works (West Yorkshire, U.K.) which has a predominantly domestic catchment. The point of collection was to ensure that the activated sludge sample was relatively free of exogenous material.
For the definitive test the suspended solids concentration for the sludge was 3.872 g/L which was outside the permitted limits of 3 g/L ± 0.3 g/L and was adjusted to nominal range using dechlorinated water. The pH of the sludge was pH 5.77 and was outside the permitted limits of pH 7.5 ± 0.5 and was therefore adjusted to pH 7.33 with 2M NaOH.
