Test solutions
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: 100 mg test item was transferred to 1 l growth medium in a 2 l flask with a drain port near the bottom. The preparation was stirred at 200 rpm for 48 h at 20°C. To exclude insoluble parts from the test media, the test preparation was filtered by using a 0.22 µm filter (Millipore MCE-MF, cellulose nitrate and acetyl cellulose, no. GSWP04700) without pre-filtration.
- Eluate: Filtration of test item particles to separate the eluate (0.22 µm filter; Millipore MCE-MF, cellulose nitrate and acetyl cellulose, no. GSWP04700) without pre-filtration. The obtained test solution representing the highest concentration was diluted with growth medium using a spacing factor of 2 and 10 to prepare the other 5 test concentrations,
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- Desmodesmus subspicatus (previous name: Scenedesmus subspicatus)
- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM
- Source (laboratory, culture collection): SAG, Culture Collection of Algae at Pflanzenphysiologisches Institut of the Unversity of Göttingen, Albrecht von Haller Institut, Untere Klarspüle 2, 37073 Göttingen, Catalogue No. 86.81
- Method of cultivation: Stock culture were maintained according to OECD guidelines. Three days prior to testing a pre-culture was established in OECD growth medium to obtain exponentially growing algae for the test.

- 72 h
- Dose descriptor:
- EC50
- Effect conc.:
- > 100 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:

- All EC50 and NOEC values were estimated to be < 1.13 µg/l (LOQ of chem. analysis)
Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Conclusions:
- The ErC50 for growth rate was calculated to be 100 mg/l based on nominal loading. The EC50 values for yield and biomass were at loadings of 32.6 and 52.6 mg/l, resp. The NOEC for all parameters was determined to be 6.25 mg/l nominal loading. Chemical analysis: conc. < 1.13 µg/l in all samples.
