Abstract
Toxicity test for biodiesel (BD), biodiesel-derived neopentyl polyol ester (NPE) lubricant oil base, lubricant oil for diesel engine oil (LODE) and petroleum diesel (PD) was carried out using earthworm, Eisenia fefida. According to the method by OECD 207, the $LC_{50}$ values of BD and NPE were estimated as 2,450 and 1,528 mg/kg, respectively, which indicate that these compounds are classified as slightly toxic compounds. The $LC_{50}$ values of LODE and PD were estimated as 500 and 603mg/kg, respectively, showing that theses compounds are evaluated as moderately toxic compounds.
