ECOTOXICOLOGICAL TESTING
Test on aquatic species
For tests requiring homogenisation and leach, the sample is grinded and homogenised at
a grain size < 10 mm, then the leach is prepared at a ratio 1:10 during a 24 hours period.
Volume of leach and therefore the amount of input material depends on the type of test.
