- PREPARATION OF THE TEST SOLUTION
- The batch of the test substance tested was a colourless to light yellow viscous liquid with a purity of 97%.
- The test item appeared not completely soluble in test medium at the concentration prepared. No correction was made for the purity/composition of the test item.
- Preparation of test solutions started with a loading rate of 100 mg/L applying a three-day period of magnetic stirring to accelerate and ensure maximum dissolution of the test item in medium. The obtained hazy mixture was allowed to settle for approximately one hour. The observed undissolved fraction did not settle during this period and a test collection by siphoning over glass wool did not yield any improvement. The obtained hazy mixture was thus used directly as the highest test concentration. Lower test concentrations were prepared by subsequent dilutions of the highest concentration in test medium. The undiluted saturated solution was hazy at the end of the preparation procedure while lower test concentrations were clear and colorless at the end of the preparation procedure - Test organisms (species):

No effects were observed in the control or any of the test concentrations after 24 hours of exposure. At the end of the test, no immobility was observed in the control and the two lower test concentration, while 40% of daphnids were immobile at the highest test concentration.
CONCENTRATION TEST ITEM AND RESULTS
Samples taken from the control and the undiluted saturated solution were analysed. The chemical analysis was based on the two major peaks present in the chromatograms, further referred to as peak 1 and peak 2. Concentrations measured for peak 1 were stable and in agreement with the expected nominal concentrations throughout the test duration. The concentrations for peak 2 were at about 52% relative to what was expected based on the loading rate throughout the test duration. Based on these results, it was decided to use the measured concentrations derived from peak 2 for the determination of effect parameters as a worst case assumption.
ANALYSIS
The 24 and the 48h-EC50 could not be determined because the observed effects were below 50%. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The actual responses in the reference test with the positive control K2Cr2O7 were within the ranges of the expected responses at the different concentrations, i.e. the 48h-EC50 was between 0.3 and 1.0 mg/L. Hence, the sensitivity of this batch of D. magna was in agreement with the historical data collected at Charles River Den Bosch.
The 24h-EC50 was 0.59 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 0.52 and 0.68 mg/L.
The 48h-EC50 was 0.41 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 0.34 and 0.46 mg/L. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the present study, the 48h-EC50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test substance was beyond the range tested, i.e. exceeded a measured concentration of 52 mg/L.
The 48h-EC50 was based on the measured concentrations derived from peak 2 as a worst case assumption.
The 24 and the 48h-EC50 could not be determined because the observed effects were below 50%. - Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test substance to waterfleas (Daphnia magna) under static conditions was performed according to OECD Guideline 202.
A combined limit/range-finding test was performed. Twenty daphnids per group (5 per replicate, quadruplicate) were exposed to an untreated control and to the undiluted saturated solution (100 mg/L), in a limit test. In addition ten daphnids per group (5 per replicate, duplicate) were exposed to solutions containing 1.0 and 10% of the saturated solution in the combined range-finding test.
The total exposure period was 48 hours and samples for analytical confirmation of exposure concentrations were taken at the start and at the end of the test.
No effects were observed in the control or any of the test concentrations after 24 hours of exposure. At the end of the test, no immobility was observed in the control and the two lower test concentration, while 40% of daphnids were immobile at the highest test concentration.
The 48h-EC50for Daphnia magna exposed to the test substance was beyond the range tested, i.e. exceeded a measured concentration of 52 mg/L
All the criteria for acceptability of the test were met and the present toxicity study is classified as reliable without restriction according to the OECD guideline No. 202
