- Assessment
The degree of biodegradation reached 100 % after 28 days.
The 10-day-window began on day 7 (this is stated as lag phase). At its end (day 17), 81 % were reached, staying above the pass level of 60% given in the OECD guideline.
The degradation phase is defined as interval between the end of the lag phase and the reaching of 90 %. This was reached on day 19.
Therefore, when applying the 10-day-window, the test item Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate is readily biodegradable following OECD 301F/EU C.4-D.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:
- readily biodegradable
- Conclusions:
- The study was performed according to OECD TG301F and EU Method C.4-D (GLP) without deviations and is therefore considered to be of the highest quality (reliability Klimisch 1). The validity criteria of the test system are fulfilled.
The degree of biodegradation reached 100 % after 28 days.
The 10-day-window began on day 7 (this is stated as lag phase). At its end (day 17), 81 % were reached, staying above the pass level of 60% given in the OECD guideline.
The degradation phase is defined as interval between the end of the lag phase and the reaching of 90 %. This was reached on day 19.
Therefore, when applying the 10-day-window, the test item Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate is readily biodegradable following OECD 301F/EU C.4-D. - Executive summary:
The Ready Biodegradability of Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate was determined under aerobic conditions in the Manometric Respirometry Test following OECD 301F / EU C.4-D under GLP.
The test item Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate was tested using a concentration of nominal 337 mg test item/L (equivalent to a theoretical oxygen demand of 100.09 mg O2/L). Activated sludge was used as inoculum. The test was left running for 28 days. All validity criteria were met. The positive control reached the pass level of 60% on day 3 (criterion: <=14).
The following data could be determined for the test item Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate:
10-day-window: day 7 – 17
degradation at the end of 10-day-window: 81 %
degradation at the end of the test: 100 %
Therefore, when applying the 10-day-window, Ammonium-3-nitrobenzoate is classified as readily biodegradable following OECD 301F and EU C.4-D.
