Summary
The Minimum Significant Difference (MSD) at the No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) is required in many guidelines for standardised ecotoxicological tests. A method is given to calculate the MSD if non-parametric pair-wise comparison of each concentration with the control is used to determine the NOEC.
