Parent compounds, or metabolites and degradation residuals, should not cause harm to the environment in which they end up by having any kind of toxic effect. To establish this, we offer ecotoxicity testing at Normec OWS. We do ecotoxicity testing on parent compounds, or on the residuals after degradation in various environments, to ensure that the materials used will not damage ecosystems.
Ecotoxicity testing evaluates the potential toxic effect of residuals, which are left behind after biodegrading. When this happens, these can inhibit plant growth or diminish the survival of soil fauna.
To establish this potential effect, ecotoxicity testing can be performed on different kinds of material, as well as intermediates, final products, inks, adhesives, varnishes, masterbatches, and additives.
We offer the following kinds of ecotoxicity testing:
