Biodegradation in water: screening tests
Administrative data
Link to relevant study record(s)
- Endpoint:
- biodegradation in water: ready biodegradability
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 2022-06-16 to 2022-08-15
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- guideline study
- Qualifier:
- according to guideline
- Guideline:
- OECD Guideline 301 F (Ready Biodegradability: Manometric Respirometry Test)
- Version / remarks:
- 1992
- GLP compliance:
- yes
- Oxygen conditions:
- aerobic
- Inoculum or test system:
- activated sludge, non-adapted
- Details on inoculum:
- - Activated sludge from the sewage plant at Hildesheim, Germany. It receives predominantly municipal sewage.
- The activated sludge was washed twice with chlorine free tap water. After the second washing the settled sludge was resuspended in mineral salts medium and was maintained in an aerobic condition by aeration with CO2 free air until test start (3 days) at test temperature.
- The amount of inoculum used to initiate inoculation was 4.76 mL/L (25.0 mg/L dw). - Duration of test (contact time):
- 60 d
- Initial conc.:
- 18 mg/L
- Based on:
- test mat.
- Initial conc.:
- 52.9 mg/L
- Based on:
- ThOD
- Parameter followed for biodegradation estimation:
- O2 consumption
- Details on study design:
- PRE-TREATMENT
- The test item was applied via a stock solution in silicone oil. The stock solution was prepared by weighing out of 9.0 g/L test item in a measuring flask and adding approx. 10 mL of silicone oil.
- The stock solution was shaken until the test item was fully dissolved.
- Upon visual checking, the final test solution was clear. 496.5 µL was pipetted into the brown glass bottles.
TEST CONDITIONS
- Composition of medium: Mineral salts medium according to OECD 301 F
- Test temperature: Nominal: 20 - 24 ± 1 °C; Actual: 22.1 – 22.5 °C
- Photoperiod: Dark
TEST SYSTEM
- Culturing apparatus: Sealed bottles
- Number of culture flasks: 4 for the inoculum control, 4for the inoculum control with silicone oil, 2 for the functional control, 1 for the functional control with silicone oil, 3 for the test item replicates, 3 for the test item replicates with silicone oil, 1 for the toxicity control, 1 for the toxicity control with silicone oil.
- Method used to create aerobic conditions: Headspace of air
- Measuring equipment: OxiTop OC110 controller with software Achat OC, WTW
SAMPLING

- Day 14: 81%
- Day 28: 83% - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Interpretation of results:
- readily biodegradable
- Conclusions:
- The study showed that the test item is readily biodegradable. The test item fulfilled the 10-d window criterion (started at day 7) and reached its pass level (60%) at day 14.
- Executive summary:
The present study was conducted in order to evaluate the biodegradability of the test item by measuring its percentage of biodegradation with inoculum in a period of 28 days. The test method was performed following the OECD Test Guideline 301F and GLP.
The test item concentration was 18 mg/L. It was solved in silicone oil for the application due to its low water solubility. Benzoic acid was used as reference substance in the functional control as well as in the toxicity control. The 10-d window was fulfilled. After the 28-d period the biodegradation of the test item was calculated to be 79%. Therefore, it is regarded as readily biodegradable.
