EC50 (3 h) = 93 mg/L
The two control respiration rates differ not more than 15 % in the study.
The EC50 (3 h) of copper(II)-sulphate-pentahydrate is in the accekpted range of 53 - 155 mg/L. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The test item is not toxic at concentrations ≤ 1000 mg/L to activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant.
- Executive summary:
A Respiration Inhibition Test with activated sludge according to OECD Guideline No. 209 was performed with the test item. Test system was activated sludge of a municipal treatment plant. The test was performed under static conditions with the nominal limit concentration of 1000 mg/L. The respiration rates of control, reference and test item concentrations were measured after a contact time of three hours, and the inhibitory effects of the test and reference concentrations were determined in comparison to the control respiration rates. No inhibition of the test item was observed at the tested concentration.
In order to check the activity of the test system and the test conditions a reference test was carried out with copper-(II)-sulphate-pentahydrate as reference item and the reference toxicity was determined. The EC50- value for the reference item was 93 mg/L.
Validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled.
The test item is not toxic at concentrations ≤ 1000 mg/L to activated sludge of a municipal sewage treatment plant.
