Detergents are widely used in households and industries, but they don't just clean surfaces—they also interact with the environment. Especially in coastal regions, these chemicals can directly enter seawater. What ecological risks does this pose? That’s where laboratory services step in.
Ecotoxicological effects of detergents are evaluated in accredited laboratories using standardized protocols:
Test Parameter | Description |
---|---|
Daphnia magna Test | Measures acute toxicity on water fleas. |
Algae Growth Inhibition | Evaluates the effect on algae reproduction rates. |
Fish Embryo Toxicity Test | Assesses the harmful effects on embryonic development. |
Biodegradability Analysis | Determines how quickly the detergent breaks down in nature. |
Our laboratory services help manufacturers evaluate and improve the environmental impact of their products. With certified ecotoxicity testing, you can create formulations that are safe for marine life and meet regulatory requirements.
Detergents used near coastal regions can cause irreversible damage to marine ecosystems. That’s why producers must treat ecotoxicity assessment not as an option but as a regulatory and ethical obligation.
Detergents, cleaning products, paints, and any chemical that may enter natural water sources.
Depending on scope, it takes between 5 to 15 business days.
Yes, all tests comply with ISO, OECD, and EU regulations.
You can reformulate to reduce impact. Our experts provide guidance for compliance.
