2: 22.9 mg
3: 23.4 mg
BOD in abiotic control = 0.0 mg
ThOD: maximum theoretical value was 70.6 mg O2/ 30.0mg test substance
Calculated degradabilities based on the BOD measurements:
1: 33 %
2: 32 %
3: 33 %
DOC in test suspension corrected with the DOC in the inoculum blank measured in the day 28:
1. 10.8 mg
2. 11.2 mg
3. 11.3 mg
Degradability based on the DOC:
1. 10.8 mg
2. 11.2 mg
3. 11.3 mg
DOC in abiotic control 14.9 mg (on 28 day); initial amount 17.5 mg. Degradability based on the DOC was not calculated as the DOC in abiotic control was below 90 % of the initial amount. - Key result
- Parameter:
- ThOD
- Value:
- 70.6 other: mg O2/30 mg test substance
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:
- inherently biodegradable, fulfilling specific criteria
- Conclusions:
- According to the results the test substance Incozol 4 is not readily biodegradable, but inherently biodegradable. The test substance degraded completely to water-soluble transformation products.
- Executive summary:
The ready biodegradation test was conducted according to the test method relating to New Chemical Substances "Biodegradability Test of chemical Substances by Microorganisms" (Yakushokuhatsu No. 1121003, Heisei 15.11.17 Seikyoku No.3, Kanpokihatsu No.031121004, November 21, 2003, the latest revision, July 4, 2008).The test substance Incozol 4 was exposed to activated sludge in a closed-system oxygen consumption measuring apparatus.The biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) was measured over a 28-day period on every 7th day. After this period, amounts of the dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and residual test substance in test bottles were measured. The average percentage degradation based on the BOD was 33 %. This does not meet the criteria of ready degradability (≥60 %), thus, the test substance had completely disappeared, the detection of DOC at the level above 60 % suggested formation of water-soluble transformation products. The test substance was thus considered to be inherently biodegradable.
