Premanufacture testing of new chemicals is considered as an applied problem in biogeochemistry, consisting of experimentation at several complimentary levels of resolution. A descending sequential testing protocol is proposed which begins with combined fate and effects experiments in ecosystems (e.g., laboratory microcosms) followed by studies of processes and species which are hypothesized to be important at finer levels of resolution.
