The test item has a mean surface tension of 50.36 mN/m. Thus, the test item is to be regarded as surface active according to regulation EC No. 440/2008 Part A Method A.5.

Conclusions:
The test item has a mean surface tension of 50.36 mN/m at 20°C. Thus, the test item is to be regarded as surface active according to regulation EC No. 440/2008 Part A Method A.5.
Executive summary:

According to OECD Test Guideline 115 and Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Part A Method A.5. the surface tension at 20 °C of test item Hydrogen [4-[[4-diethylamino)phenyl][4-[ethyl[(3-sulphonatobenzyl)amino]-o-tolyl]methylene]-3-methylcylohexa-2,5-dien-1-ylidene](ethyl)3-sulphonatobenzyl)ammonium, sodium salt was determined to be 50.36 mN/m

According to Regulation EC No. 440/2008 Part A Method A.5. the test item is to be regarded as surface active material.
