Additional information
Two studies on the toxicity to aquatic microorgannisms can be defined as reliable with restrictions. The first study of bacterial toxicity was found demonstrating a 18 hour EC10 of 44.6mg/l maleic anhydride to Pseudomonas putida. Another study used Luminescent Bacteria Toxicity Test found out the 15min EC50 of 12.5mg/l maleic anhydride to Photobacterium phosphoreum.
