- Inoculum or test system:
- activated sludge, domestic, non-adapted
- Details on inoculum:
- - Source of inoculum/activated sludge (e.g. location, sampling depth, contamination history, procedure): wastewater treatment plant of Mannheim, Germany.
- Laboratory culture: The inoculum was collected on 04 January 2010 from the aeration tank of the plant and aerated in the laboratory until use.
- Method of cultivation: A suitable aliquot of the activated sludge suspension was sieved by a finely woven mesh with a mesh size about 1 mm. The activated sludge suspension was pre-aerated for about 24 hours at a temperature of 22 +/- 2 degree C.
- Preparation of inoculum for exposure: On day of exposure the sludge was allowed to settle. After settling the supernatant was discarded and the remaining sludge suspension was filled up with tap water. The sludge of the suspension was adjusted to a concentration of 6.0 g/L dry weight.
- Concentration of sludge: Aliquots of 5 mL were added to the test vessels to obtain a sludge concentration of 30 mg/L dry substance. - Duration of test (contact time):
- 28 d
- Details on study design:
- TEST CONDITIONS
- Test temperature: 22 +/- 2 degree C
- pH: 7.4 +/- 2
- pH adjusted: yes
- Aeration of dilution water: yes - Reference substance:
- aniline
- Preliminary study:
- The test guideline recommends a test concentration of the test substance of 10 - 40 mg/L Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC). A test concentration of 20 mg/L DOC was used. The selected test concentration of 20 mg DOC/L corresponds to approximately 62 mg/L Acetic acid, oxo-, sodium salt.
It is anticipated that the selected test concentration causes no toxic effects to the microorganisms. The selected test concentration was tested in an additional inhibition control test assay and no toxic effects to the microorganisms were observed. - Key result

- Details on results:
- See below at "Any other information on results incl. tables"
- Results with reference substance:
- See below at "Any other information on results incl. tables"
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:
- under test conditions no biodegradation observed
- Conclusions:
- FeNaEDDHA was not readily biodegradable under the conditions of a DOC Die-Away test.
- Executive summary:
The DOC Die-Away Test is a batch test method to determine the ultimate aerobic biodegradability of a test substance in water. Mixtures of the test substance FeNaEDDHA, a defined inorganic medium and a non pre-adapted inoculum (e.g. activated sludge or effluent from a municipal wastewater treatment plant) are incubated and aerated at a temperature of 22 +/- 2 degree C for up to 28 days regularly. Samples are taken at regular intervals to determine the Dissolved Organic Carbon concentration (DOC).
Biodegradation degree: 10-20 % after an exposure period of 28 days (mean value of two test assays)
Removal of Dissolved Organic Carbon (DOC): Acetic acid, oxo-, sodium salt was poorly biodegradable under the conditions of this test.
Based on co-incubation with anilin, it could be demonstrated that the test concentration used (20 mg/L DOC) was not toxic (inhibitory effect) on the sewage treatment bacteria flora.
Evaluation in accordance to criteria of the OECD Test Guideline: FeNaEDDHA was not readily biodegradable under the conditions of this test.
