15 Bibliography

Defines a procedure to determine the long term sublethal toxicity to Daphnia magna Straus (Cladocera, Crustacea) of: chemical substances that are soluble under the test conditions, or can be maintained as stable suspensions or dispersions under the test conditions; sewage or industrial effluents, either treated or untreated, after filtration, decanting or centrifugation; ground or surface waters.

This International Standard describes a method for the determination of the long term sublethal toxicity to Daphnia magna Straus (Cladocera. Crustacea) of:

  1. chemical substances. which are soluble under the conditions of the test. or can be maintained as stable suspensions or dispersions under the conditions of the test.
  2. industrial or sewage effluents. treated or untreated. after decanting. filtration. or centrifugation.
  3. surface or ground waters.

NOTE This International Standard is adapted from OECD Guideline 211[1].
