OECD SIDS o-<strong>TOLUIDINE</strong><br />

3. ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND PATHWAYS ID: <strong>95</strong>-<strong>53</strong>-4<br />

DATE: 07.01.2005<br />

Contact time :<br />

Degradation : 88 - 90 (±) % after 28 day(s)<br />

Result : readily biodegradable<br />

Deg. product :<br />

Method : OECD Guide-line 301 A (old version) "Ready Biodegradabiltiy: Modified<br />

AFNOR Test"<br />

Year : 1983<br />

GLP : no<br />

Test substance : other TS: o-Toluidine, purity is not specified<br />

Method : - Tests were carried out using an inoculum prepared from the same source<br />

which was recommended to be the final effluent from a sewage works<br />

treating predominantly domestic sewage.<br />

The concentration stage required was achieved by either membrane<br />

filtration or centrifugation (inoculum density was between 2E+07 and<br />

5E+05 bacteria/ml), although one of the six laboratories used activated<br />

sludge (30 mg/l)<br />

- Reference compound control: aniline (validity criterion: 70 % aniline<br />

degradation by day 14); analysis both by DOC and substance specific<br />

analysis (GC)<br />

Remark : Six laboratories took part following the same protocol which specified the<br />

details of the test procedure.<br />

Biodegradation was referred to DOC-elimination.<br />

No sterile or toxicity control were performed.<br />

Result : The days for analysis were 0, 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28 and analysis by both<br />

DOC and by specific analysis (gas chromatography recommended) was<br />

specified.<br />

The pass level of 70 % was reached after 7 days (10 days window<br />

criterion) in all experiments.<br />

One of the labs presented 2 series of results, as in the first experiment an<br />

extreme low degradation was obtained which was not in accordance with<br />

all other results. The results of the first series were therefore not<br />

considered.<br />

Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions<br />

Test procedure in accordance with standard guideline with acceptable<br />

modifications<br />

Flag : Critical study for SIDS endpoint<br />

Inoculum : activated sludge<br />
