3. ENVIRONMENTAL FATE AND PATHWAYS ID: 15831-10-4
DATE: 24.05.2004
No standard test procedure, but in accordance with generally
accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient
detail
12.05.2004 (35)
Type : anaerobic
Inoculum : other: shallow anaerobic alluvial sand aquifer
Deg. product : yes
Method : other: measured
Year : 1986
GLP : no
Test substance : other TS: m-cresol, no purity reported (obtained from Aldrich Chemical Co.)
Deg. products : 74-82-8 200-812-7 methane
Method : 2 sampling sites: 1 methanogenic, 1 sulfate-reducing
both aquifers receive leachate from a municipal landfill
Result : lag time 43 days under sulfate-reducing and 46-90 days under
methanogenic conditions, no data for complete degradation
given
Test condition : test medium: 50 g [wet weight] of aquifer solids and 50 ml
of groundwater
incubation at room temperature in the dark, quadruplicates
preincubation 5 days, addition of 150 to 200 µM test
substance
Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions
No standard test procedure, but in accordance with generally
accepted scientific standards and described in sufficient
detail

Deg. product : yes
Method : other: measured
Year : 1989
GLP : no
Test substance : other TS: m-cresol, no purity reported
Deg. products : 74-82-8 200-812-7 methane
Method : black anoxic mud collected from a river inoculated in a
mineral medium (10% w/v)
Result : non-acclimated consortia: turnover rate 1.10 µmol/day/g
sediment dw (lag-phase 16 d)
acclimated consortia: turnover rate 2.37 µmol/day/g sediment
dw (lag-phase 0 d, based on a 24-days-incubation period),
the CH4 production was 96 % of the theoretically possible
yield
Test condition : incubation at 28 degrees C in the dark
cultures were refed with 60 mg/l test substance every 2-4 w
for a total of 18 months
Reliability : (2) valid with restrictions
