Table 2.

Toxicity of a PPP in different test‐exposure scenarios, expressed as toxicity to exposure ratio (TER) between the mean lethal rate (LC₅₀) or no observed effect rate (NOAER) and the intended field‐application rate. Test organism was the amphibian Bufo bufo placed on soil directly after spraying with the intended rate or several hours afterwards

Formulation	Test set up	TER [LR50 g a.s./ha/field rate g a.s./ha]	TER [NOAER g a.s./ha/field rate g a.s./ha]
A	Animals introduced shortly after spray residue on soil dried up	> 1.2	0.6
	Animal introduced 4 h after spray application to soil	> 1.2	≥ 1.2
