Validation of a sediment bioaccumulation test with endobenthic aquatic oligochaetes by an international ring test

January 2011

The aim of the project was the validation of a sediment bioaccumulation test with endobenthic oligochaetes by an international ring test. The test method was developed taking into account existing methods (UBA-reports 298 67 419 (1999) and 206 03 106/03 (1999)). A test protocol was prepared and used to run the test. A total of […]

Validation of a sediment toxicity test with the endobenthic aquatic oligochaete Lumbriculus variegatus by an international ring test

January 2011

The aim of the project was the validation of a sediment toxicity test with the benthic oligochaete Lumbriculus variegatus by an international ring test. The test method was developed taking into account existing methods. A test protocol was prepared and used to run the test. A total of 14 institutions (governmental agencies, universities, contract laboratories […]

Preparation of a test guideline – Hypoaspis reproduction test – in particular for the assessment of plant protection products

January 2011

The aim of this project, which was supported by the German Environment Agency (UBA), was to standardise and validate a test guideline using soil predatory mites, a Hypoaspis reproduction test. Testing effects of plant protection products on predatory soil mites may be needed for the listing of an active substance in Annex I of EU […]

Validation of a method to measure bioaccumulation in terrestrial organisms by means of an international ring test

January 2011

The aim of the project was the validation of a bioaccumulation test with terrestrial organisms (soil dwelling oligochaetes) by an international ring test. The test method was developed taking into account existing methods (UBA-reports 206 03 909 (1997) and 298 64 416 (2001)). A test protocol was prepared and used to run the test. A […]

Determination of developmental toxicity to dipterian dung flies

January 2011

The aim of the project was to standardise a test guideline with two dung fly species to be used for the environmental risk assessment of veterinary pharmaceuticals, in particular endo- and ectoparasiticides excreted in dung. The test is designed to evaluate developmental toxicity of a test substance to the dung dwelling life stages of dung-dependent […]

Supply of dung beetles for the performance of a ring test as a precondition for the implementation of an OECD Guidance Document

January 2011

The objective of this project sponsored by the German Federal Environment Agency was the improvement of existing laboratory tests with dung beetles and dung flies. It was aimed at identifiying a second dung beetle species for standardised laboratory tests that should belong to the ecological group of ‘tunnelers’.  However, it was not possible to establish […]

Organisation and performance of an international ringtest for the validation of the enchytraeid reproduction test

January 2011

An enchytraeid reproduction test ring test was performed in line with OECD requirements. Twenty-nine institutions (mainly universities and contract research laboratories) from 15 countries from Europe and North America participated in this ring test. The co-ordinating laboratory centrally distributed the test chemicals, guidance papers and test organisms to all participants. In addition, several training courses […]

About ECT

ECT Oekotoxikologie GmbH was founded as a privately owned, independent enterprise in 1993, and joined the SynTech Research Group in November 2021.

In compliance with Good Laboratory Practice (GLP), we perform standardised ecotoxicological tests in the laboratory as well as at semi-field and field level.

An overview of the ecotoxicology services provided by the whole SynTech Research Group is given here.
