Biodegradability tests were carried out in a controlled nutrient medium under aerobic and micro‐aerophilic conditions, in river water and in soil. Degradation occurred under all conditions but more rapidly when the oxygen concentration was high. Degradation was rapid in sterilized river water inoculated with anaerobic sewage sludge under microaerophilic conditions and in soil. LAS was not degraded in any of the microaerophilic tests.
