Description of key information

The NOEC of the test item Active Substance of Granofin Easy F-90 liq in Aqueous Solution is 320 mg a.i./L. The test item is not toxic up to the concentration of 320 mg a.i./L to activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant. The EC20 of the test item is 554 mg a.i./L and the EC50 is > 1000 mg a.i./L.

Additional information

A Respiration Inhibition Test with activated sludge according to OECD Guideline No. 209 was carried out with the test item Active Substance of Granofin Easy F-90 liq in aqueous solution (batch number:ITA0056831)from 2012-05-23 to 2012-05-24, with the definitive experimental phase on 2012-05-24, at theDr.U.Noack-Laboratorien, D-31157Sarstedt.Test system was activated sludge of the municipal treatment plant of D-31137 Hildesheim. The test was carried out under static conditions with the substance concentrations 100 - 180 - 320 - 580 - 1000 mg a.i./L, corresponding to 145 - 261 - 464 - 840 - 1449 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 ranged from -10 % to 41 %.

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 88.7 mg/L.

The NOEC of the test itemActive Substanceof Granofin Easy F-90 liq in Aqueous Solution is320 mg a.i./L.

The test item is not toxic up to the concentration of320mg a.i./L to activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant. The EC50of the test item is> 1000 mg a.i./L.

In a second Respiration Inhibition Test with activated sludge according to OECD 209 it was shown, that the test item is not toxic up to the highest tested concentration (IC50 > 100 mg/L). This supports the results from the kew study.
