This International Standard specifies a method for determining the growth inhibition of the macroalga Ceramium tenuicorne by substances and mixtures contained in seawater or wastewater with salinities between 4S and 32S. This procedure can be used for substances that are highly water-soluble. NOTE With modifications as described in ISO 14442 and ISO 5667-16, inhibitory effects of poorly soluble organic and inorganic compounds, volatile components, wastewater, seawater samples and sediment eluates can also be tested.
