EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable): the effects of Dequest 2000 were determined on hatchability, survival, growth, behaviour and morphological changes of the embryos and fry, and recorded at least weekly. The eggs were inspected daily and dead eggs removed. Growth as determined by standard length of the fry was determined by the photographic method of McKim and Benoit (13) immediately after transfer of the fry to the respective growth chambers and at 15, 30, 45 and 60 days thereafter.

- Numbers hatched:: Hatchability of rainbow trout eggs continuously exposed to Dequest 2000 was not significantly (P=0.05) reduced at any concentration compared to the control eggs. See Table 1 for details.
- Observations on body length and weight of young and/or exposed parents at one or more time periods: Growth of the fry, as measured by length, was significantly reduced (P=0.05) after 45 and 60 days of exposure to 47.6 mg/L and 89.4 mg/L Dequest 2000. Wet weights of the rainbow trout fry were also significantly reduced after 60 days exposure to these concentrations. See Table 1 for details.
- Other biological observations: Observations also indicated that the trout fry at concentrations 47.6 and 89.4 mg/L exhibited a noticeably excitable behaviour. Eggs at 89.4 mg/L had a whitish colour or coating prior to hatching. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Hatching, survival and growth data was subject to analysis of variance.

- Details on results:
- - Mortality/survival at embryo, larval, juvenile, and adult stages: Survival of trout fry exposed to concentrations >136.2 mg active acid/l was significantly decreased relative to control.
- Numbers hatched, Numbers of offspring produced, or Number of offspring per live female per day: Percentage of rainbow trout eggs successful hatching when exposed to 291 mg active acid/L Dequest 2060 was significantly lower than the % hatch of the control eggs. Hatchability of trout eggs exposed to other concentrations were not significantly reduced during the study.
- Observations on body length and weight of young and/or exposed parents at one or more time periods: At concentrations 136.2 mg active acid/L and 291.1 mg active acid/L significantly reduced growth, as measured by standard length, of the rainbow trout fry after 30 days exposure. After 45 days and 60 days of exposure to 67.8 mg active acid/L, growth was signficantly reduced. The effects on the weight of the fry were the same as on length at 60 days of exposure.
- Number of healthy fish at end of test: After 45 days exposure to 291 mg active acid/L only one juvenile rainbow trout had survived and no fish survived 60 days continuous exposure to this concentration.
- Type of and number with morphological abnormalities: No trout fry abnormalities were observed during the study. No difference in egg appearance between Dequest 2060 concentrations and the control were observed. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Analysis of variance combined with a least significant difference test were used to determine concentrations that had significant effects on survival and growth.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- A reliable 60 day ELS toxicity test has determined a NOEC value of 25.6 mg active acid/L based on fry weight of the freshwater fish Salmo gairdneri (new name: Oncorhynchus mykiss).

Description of key information
There are no studies are available on SPE1415, however there are two reliable (Klimisch 1) long-term toxicity studies in fish conducted on the analogue substances (ATMP and DTPMP). In addition there is one reliable (Klimisch 2) study on another confidential analogue substance. These data are included in this dossier.
One reliable (Klimisch 1) long-term, early-life stage (ELS) study for ATMP with rainbow trout (Onchorhynchus mykiss, formerly known as Salmo gairdneri) is available (McAllister, 1980). The GLP‑compliant study was conducted over 60 days under freshwater flow-through test conditions. The 60‑day NOEC (weight of fry and length) was determined to be 23 mg/L, based on mean measured test concentrations as ATMP active acid (50%).
One reliable (Klimisch 1) long-term, early-life stage (ELS) study for DTPMP with rainbow trout (Onchorhynchus mykiss, formerly known as Salmo gairdneri) is available (ABC Laboratories, 1980). The GLP‑compliant study was conducted over 66 days under freshwater flow-through test conditions. The 60-day NOEC was determined to be 25.6 mg/L based on mean measured test concentrations as DTPMP active acid (50%).
Additional supporting data on another confidential analogue substance is discussed in Additional Information.
Adequate reliable measured data exists for the long-term toxicity to fish to the aminomethylphosphonate analogue substances of SPE1415 (ATMP and DTPMP). In a conservative approach, the most sensitive study result from these studies has been identified and used to address the hazard endpoint in question. The most sensitive study result has been identified as a reliable study with ATMP (McAllister, 1980) which reports a NOEC for long-term toxicity in fish of 23 mg/L. Consequently this value will be used for the long term toxicity to fish endpoint for SPE1415.
