“…Thouland et al [48], also described how the fate of chemicals in degradation studies are strongly influenced by the original inoculum used, largely depending on cell density, microbial diversity, and whether or not the microbial community may have been pre-exposed to the test chemical. Although the natural microbial populations used in the current experiment may have been previously exposed to low concentrations of these herbicides, in the tank experiments (as in the natural environment) they are likely to have access to a more abundant and diverse array of carbon sources (both dissolved in the seawater and associated with sediments) that may be more easily assimilated [49]. The nutrients in the tanks by the end of the experiment were similar to the relatively low concentrations reported for inshore waters of the GBR [30].…”

“…This is especially the case where unrealistically high concentrations of contaminant are tested in the presence of additional nutrients and inoculated with highly enriched and active microbial consortia (e.g. from wastewater plants and alike) [49]. Even when standard flasks studies are conducted to better simulate natural conditions they are often not performed for sufficient time to enable half-life calculations [26].…”

“…They are cheap and easy to use but give point data limited to one specific type of environment, which leads to a variable and restricted view of biodegradation (Thouand et al 1995;van Ginkel et al 1995;Vazquez-Rodriguez et al 2012;Goodhead et al 2014). Despite this uncertainty, a positive RBT result can be used to classify the tested substance as readily biodegradable (Ahtiainen et al 2003;ECHA 2014). Simulation tests (e.g., OECD 314 (OECD 2008)) are designed to evaluate the long-term chemical behavior in the environment.…”
