Biodegradation

Testing of household and industrial chemicals

Biodegradation testing of surfactants (surface active substances) determines the environmental safety of household and industrial chemicals and detergents, and ensures a high level of environmental and human health protection

Biodegradation

According to the Technical Regulations on Detergents, all household chemicals (except for solid soaps) containing surfactants are subject to biodegradation testing. In our laboratory, we can offer manufacturers and distributors primary and complete biodegradation.

  • In the primary biodegradation, only the loss of surfactant's main property - surface activity - is determined. At the same time, the products of such decomposition can be quite toxic organic substances
  • Full biodegradation assesses the breakdown of surfactants to the simplest compounds that are not harmful to the environment
