This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the chronic toxicity to Ceriodaphnia dubia (Cladocera, Crustacea), based on reproduction inhibition after (7 ± 1) d.
The method is applicable to:
-
chemical substances which are soluble or which can be maintained as stable suspensions or dispersions under the conditions of the test;
-
industrial or sewage effluents, if appropriate after decantation, filtration or centrifugation;
-
fresh waters;
-
aqueous extracts.
This International Standard is not applicable to the testing of aquatic samples from the estuarine or marine environment.
