Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

In the toxicity control of a guideline biodegradation study with activated domestic sludge (Clarke, 2010) the 14 day biodegradation of sodium benzoate exposed together with the test item was 55%. ≥ 25 % degradation is considered to be an indication of a non-inhibitory substance according to OECD 301 guideline. Thus the test item concentration of 14.5 mg/L, is considered to be an applicable NOEC.
