Scope

GB/T 44706-2024 is the English-translated version of 化学品 沉积物-水系统中河蚬毒性试验.

GB/T 44706-2024 is the Chinese national standard covering whether a chemical that settles into river sediment poisons the animals living in it — the test principle and the information needed on the substance, the test system built on Corbicula fluminea in formulated and spiked sediment under overlying water, the instruments, the procedure, the quality assurance, and the reporting of burrowing rate and of the lethal and effect concentrations that turn the observation into a usable figure. Sediment is where a poorly soluble chemical ends up, and where a water-column test does not reach. First edition, in force from 1 May 2025. Issued on 26 October 2024, it has been in force since 1 May 2025.
