- Details on results:
- The analytically determined mean test item concentrations at the start and the end of the test were 97% of the nominal value. The test item MTI-446 was stable under the test conditions during the test period of 48 hours. Therefore all results are reported as nominal test concentrations. In the control (0 mg/L) and the test item concentration of 1000 mg/L, no immobilized or dead test organisms or other signs of intoxication were determined during the entire test period (48 hours).
The 48-hour NOEC and the 48-hour EC0 of dinotefuran to Daphnia magna were determined to be ≥ 1000 mg/L. The 48-hour EC50 and the 48-hour EC100 were >1000 mg/L.
No remarkable observations were made concerning the appearance of the test medium. It was a clear solution throughout the whole test duration. At the beginning and the end of the test period, the oxygen concentrations in the test medium and the control was 8.7 mg/L and the pH-values ranged from pH 7.7 - 7.8.
The EC50 and EC100 values (with 95% C.I.) could not be calculated due to insufficient immobility. The NOEC and LOEC were determined visually.
See Tables 1 and Table 2. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Not applicable
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The NOEC and EC0 were determined directly from the raw data.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The 48-hour EC50 was > 1000 mg/L, which categorizes dinotefuran as nontoxic to the water flea (Daphnia magna) on an acute toxicity basis. The 48-hour NOEC and LOEC levels were ≥ 1000 and > 1000 mg/L, respectively.
- Endpoint:
- short-term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates
- Type of information:
- experimental study
- Adequacy of study:
- key study
- Study period:
- 17 February 2000 - 04 July 2000
- Reliability:
- 1 (reliable without restriction)
- Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
- comparable to guideline study
- Justification for type of information:
- The aquatic species shown to be most sensitive to dinotefuran was the chironomid
(Chironomus riparius) following both acute and chronic exposure. The acute 48 h LC50 was
72.1 μg/l and the 27 d NOEC was 2.54 μg/l. These results are consistent with the opinion
that daphnids (the most usual aquatic invertebrate tested) are not as susceptible to
neonicotinoid insecticides as other invertebrates. Information on endpoints for other
neonicotinoids (e.g. imidacloprid, clothianidin) is available in the EFSA conclusions/Review - Reason / purpose for cross-reference:

Chironomus riparius was bred in the laboratories of RCC under similar temperature and light conditions as in the test, and in the same kind of test water as used in the test.

- Details on results:
- After the test period of 24 hours no mortality of the test organisms was determined in the control and all test media up to and including the highest concentration of 100 µg/L. However, at the highest test concentration all larvae showed convulsions and unusual body movements (clearly different to the larvae in the control). At the lower test concentrations of 2.2 - 46 µg/L this sign of intoxication was not determined. Thus, the 24-hour LC50 of the test item was >100 µg/I, the 24-hour LCO was at least 100 µg/L. After 48 hours of exposure the toxicity of the test item to the larvae of Chironomus riparius had increased: Now the larvae at 46 µg/I showed convulsions and unusual body movements. At the highest test concentration of 100 µg/L 17 larvae were dead (corresponding to a mortality rate of 85%). The remaining three alive larvae showed convulsions and unusual body movements, and thus probably would have died after short time. In the range-finding tests even 100% mortality was recorded at 100 µg/L. The 48-hour LC50 was calculated to be 72.1 µg/L with 95% confidence limits from 64.5 to 80.6 µg/L. The 48-hour LCO of MTI-446 was 46 µg/L. The 48-hour NOEC (highest concentration tested without toxic effects after 48 hours) was 22 µg/L, since no mortality and no signs of intoxication were observed at the test organisms up to and including this test concentration. The lowest test concentration with toxic effects after 48 hours (48-hour LOEC) was 46 µg/L. The 48-hour LC100 was approximately 100 µg/L. Thus, the concentration-effect relationship of the acute toxicity of MTI-446 to first-instar larvae of Chironomus riparius was rather steep. No remarkable observations were made concerning the appearance of the test media. All test media were clear solutions throughout the whole test duration. At the beginning and the end of the test period, the oxygen concentrations in the test media and the control were at least 8.8 mg/L. The pH-values ranged from pH 7.9 to 8.0
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- no mortality in the control
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item MTI-446 to first-instar larvae of the midgeChironomus ripariuswas determined in a 48-hour static test. The test item was dissolved in water, and the larvae were introduced into these test media. The survival rate of the larvae and symptoms of intoxication were recorded during the test period. No sediment was added in this acute test since otherwise the small larvae, dwelt in sediment cannot be observed.
The nominal test item concentrations tested were 2.2, 4.6, 10, 22, 46 and 100 pg/I, and in parallel a control.
The analytically determined concentrations of MTI-446 in the test media from the start and the end of the test varied in the range from 92 to 98% of the nominal values. In the test media MTI-446 was sufficiently stable during the test period of 48 hours. Therefore, all reported biological results are related to the nominal concentrations of the test item.
