OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Adjustment of pH: no - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- Copper (II) sulphate pentahydrate
- Key result
- Duration:
- 3 h
- Dose descriptor:
- NOEC
- Effect conc.:
- >= 1 000 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- inhibition of total respiration
- Details on results:
- From the oxygen depletion the oxygen uptake rates were calculated in mg O2/Lxh, additionally the respiration rates based on the dry sludge concentration were calculated in mg O2/gxh. The inhibition of the oxygen uptake rates of the first test item concentrations in % was calculated in comparison to the oxygen uptake rates of the control.
The test item did not cause inhibiting effects on activated sludge of a municipal seawage treatment plant at the limit test of 1000 mg/L. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- In the reference test the EC50 value for Copper (II) sulphate pentahydrate was 104 mg/L (95 % CI = 101 - 106 mg/L). This is in the recommended range of 53 - 155 mg/L.
The mean specific oxygen uptake rate of control replicates was 20.8 mg O2/gxh (validity criterion >/= 20 mg O2/gxh).
The coefficient of variation of the oxygen uptake rates in the control replicates was 2.9 % (validity criterion <30 %). - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The NOEC of the test material was >/= 1000 mg/L. There were no inhibiting effects on activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant at the limit test item concentration of 1000 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
A Respiration Inhibition Test with activated sludge according to OECD Guideline 209 was carried out with the test item. The test activated sludge of the municipal treatment plant. The test was carried out under static conditions with the limit test item concentration 1000 mg/L. The respiration rates of the control, reference and test item replicates were measured after a contact time of three hours, and the inhibitory effects of the test and reference item were determined in comparison to the control respiration rates. The mean inhibition of respiration for the test item replicates was -1%.
In order to check the activity of the test system and the test conditions a reference test was carried out with copper(II) sulphate pentahydrate as reference item and the reference toxicity was determined. The EC50 value for the reference item was 104 mg/L. The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled.
The NOEC of the test item is >= 1000 mg/L. The test item caused no inhibiting effects on activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant at the limit test item concentration of 1000 mg/L.
