- Details on inoculum:
- - Source of inoculum/activated sludge: Activated sludge, surface soil and surface water were sampled from ten sites such as Nanjing Suojincun, Chengbei, Baguazhou and Hexi distributing in four districts throughout Nanjing city. 1 L of the sludge, soil, water was collected respectively and mixed thoroughly together.
- Method of cultivation: After removing floating matter and allowing standing, adjust the supernatant to pH 7.0 with sodium hydroxide or phosphoric acid. Used an appropriate volume of the filtered supernatant to fill a fill-and-draw activated sludge vessel and aerated the liquid for about 23.5 h. Thirty minutes after stopping aeration, discarded about one third of the whole volume of supernatant and added an equal volume of a solution (pH 7.0) containing 0.1 % each of glucose, peptone and potassium orthophosphate, to the settled material and re-commence aeration. Repeated this procedure once per day until was used.
- Preparation of inoculum for exposure: The mixture was allowed to stand, and the supernatant was removed before use. Taken a small quantity of sludge to centrifuge (10000 rpm x 10 min) and then weigh. Oven the sludge dry and weigh again in order to calculate the content of dry sludge. Take a certain amount of centrifuged sludge to dilute with basal culture medium to activated sludge suspension with a concentration of 100 mg/L (dry basis).

- Test procedure: The test substance was added to the vessels designated "test" to give the required final test concentration (30 mg/L). The reference substance (aniline) was added to the "reference" vessels to give a final concentration of 100 mg/L Each prepared solution was then transferred to the required number of BOD bottles (two "reference", two "control", and two "test" ). Added test micro-organisms to above BOD bottles except "abiotic" bottle, and the concentration of supernatant is 100 mg (dry basis)/L. Finally six BOD bottles were made up to 300 mL with the dilution medium.
Assembled the equipment, checked that it is air-tight, began the stirrers, and started the measurement of oxygen uptake under conditions of darkness.
Checked the temperature, stirrer and recorder, and noted any changes in colour of the contents of the vessels on a daily basis. Read the BOD for the six bottles directly by an appropriate method at the days of 5, 7, 11, 14, 18, 21, 25 and 28d. - Reference substance:

- Executive summary:
This test was to determine the inherent biodegradability of organic chemicals in an aerobic, aqueous medium according to OECD Guideline 302 C (Inherent Biodegradability: Modified MITI Test (II)).
Test solutions were prepared in an inorganic salts medium, inoculated with a number of micro-organisms from not less than 10 places throughout Nanjing city, and kept in BOD bottles in the dark at a temperature of 25 ± 1 °C. "Abiotic", "reference" and "control" were set up simultaneity, while "abiotic" contained inoculated mineral salts medium and a measured amount of test substance, "reference" contained inoculated mineral salts medium and a measured amount of a reference substance. And that "control" only contained inoculated mineral salts medium.
During the test, the temperature kept at 25 ± 1 °C. The test was valid because the level of biodegradation of the reference substance exceeded 40% after 7 days, and 65% after 14 days.
The biodegradation of the test item was 6.40% after 14 days, 14.4% after 28 days. Therefore, the test item is not inherently biodegradable in this test condition.
