b'ENVIOMETC toxicityEnvironmental Terrestrial ToxicologyTerrestrial toxicity of ENVIOMETC chelating agents has been comprehensively studiedand the available data shows: It exhibits low toxicity to earthworms; It exhibits low toxicity to plants in seedling emergence tests (with oat, lettuce andtomato); It exhibits no detrimental toxic effects on microflora.Impact on soil ecosystemsWhen applied to soil, ENVIOMETC chelating agents are less toxic to the soil microbialcommunity and will be rapidly degraded. As a result, the ENVIOMETC chelating agentswill not accumulate over time and are less likely to have a negative impact on the soilecosystem functions.'
