Description of key information

The inhibition of the degradation activity of activated sludge is not anticipated when cyclohexyl methacrylate is introduced into biological treatment plants in appropriately low concentrations. An EC20 of ca. 450 mg/L was determined (domestic activated sludge, OECD TG 209).

Key value for chemical safety assessment

EC50 for microorganisms:
900 mg/L

Additional information

In a test with domestic activated sludge the inhibition of oxygen consumption was examined according to OECD guideline 209 (BASF AG, 2004). After 30 minutes no inhibition of the oxygen uptake was observed. The 30-min EC50 was determined to be approx. 900 mg/L, the EC20 450 mg/L.
