The columns are as follows:

Conc

The chemical concentration in micrograms per Litre (dbl).

Duration

The duration of the test in days (chr).

Genus

The Genus name (chr).

Group

The taxonomic group (chr).

Life_stage

Life stage of the test organism (chr).

Phylum

The Phylum name (chr).

Species

The species binomial name (chr).

Test_endpoint

The test endpoint measure (chr).

Toxicity_measure

The toxicity measure used (chr).

Where toxicity measure is not a chronic NEC, EC10 or NOEC value, concentration has been converted using the appropriate default ratio, as follows: 10 from acute EC50/LC50 to chronic EC10; 5 from chronic EC50 to EC10; 2.5 from LOEC to EC10. Please see the primary reference material for more information.
