Technical Details & Test Data
- Efficacy Tests
Suga®Nate 160NC is truly a green surfactant and readily biodegradable, causing no harm to the environment and contributes to an environmentally safe waste stream.
Biodegradability
OECD 301 (301E) Ready biodegradability test in an aerobic aqueous medium: Sample shows 80 – 82% biodegradable in 28 days, exceeding 60% biodegradability requirement.
OCDE/OECD 311 Anaerobic Biodegradability of Organic Compounds in Digested Sludge by Measurement of Gas Production: Sample showed that anaerobic degradation occurred within the range of 75% – 85% within 60 days, indicating that the sample is anaerobically biodegradable.
Suga®Nate 160NC meets the requirements for ingredients that may be included in goods and services bearing Nordic Swan ecolabelling.
Bacteria Reverse Mutation Assay
Ames test, OECD 471: No detectable genotoxic activity at the non-cytotoxic concentrations of Suga®Nate 160, neither in the absence nor in the presence of the S9 enzyme activation.
Aquatic Toxicity - Green Algae
USEPA OPPTS 840.5400 and USEPA Method 1003.0 72 Hour Growth Inhibition Test using Freshwater Unicellular Green Algae: Results - IC50 = 52.9 mg/L
