OECD Guideliens for testing of Chemicals: Effects on Biotic Systems

The OECD (Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development) Guidelines for the Testing of Chemicals are a collection of the most relevant internationally agreed test methods used by government, industry and independent laboratories to determine the safety of chemicals and chemical preparations, including pesticides and industrial chemicals. They cover tests for the physical-chemical properties of chemicals, human health effects, environmental effects, and degradation and accumulation in the environment. The attached document contains a list of ecotoxicological tests testing the effects of chemicals on the biotic system. Clicking on the name of the test one can reach the summary of the test and its detailed description in the pdf document.
