Materials and methods

Test guideline
Qualifier:
no guideline followed
Principles of method if other than guideline:
Dechlorane Plus was suspended in benzene and then added to test water at a concentration of 4 ppm. Domestic sewage sludge was added, and the mixtures were incubated for 2 - 30 days. The oxygen concentration was determined and compared with negative control values.

Results and discussion

Transformation products:
not measured

Any other information on results incl. tables

No oxygen consumption in test and control cultures, sludge was viable after the 30 days incubation period with Dechlorane Plus indicating not toxicity to sludge. No analytical verification of tested substance concentration.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Conclusions:
Test result is not reliable, as not study report is available.
Executive summary:

Dechlorane Plus was suspended in benzene and added to water together with domestic sewage sludge, while benzene was stripped by aeration. The nominal concentration of 4 ppm was not analytically verified. Within the test duration of 30 days, no oxygen consumption was observed in test and negative control cultures. No test report is availabe, only a summary description in letter form. The test results are not reliable.
