- Details on sampling:
- SAMPLING AND FREQUENCY OF ANALYSIS
- Test water: The test water of Level 1 and Level 2 were analyzed once before the first analysis of test fish and at the same time as analysis of test fish thereafter. One sample was analyzed at each sampling time. Test water samples were pretreated before GC-MS analysis.
- Test fish: Analysis of test fish was performed five times during the exposure period. Four fish per treatment level were taken out at each sampling time and divided into two groups (two fish per group) because one fish was not enough for the analytical sensitivity of the test item. Test fish collection at final three successive analyses was carried out at intervals of more than 48 hours, and the last analysis was performed 28th days. Analysis of control fish was performed before the experimental start and after the experimental completion. Four fish were taken out at the sampling time and divided into two groups, and analyzed individually. - Details on preparation of test solutions, spiked fish food or sediment:
- PREPARATION OF STOCK SOLUTIONS
- Dispersant: N,N-Dimethylformamide was used to prepare stock solutions.
- Level 1: Test sample (1000 mg) was dissolved in N,N-Dimethylformamide to prepare 1000 mg/L stock solution (1 L).

- Details on results:
- - BCF at steady-state (BCFss): Because the test item in test fish at the last three successive analyses were not more than the LOQ, BCFss was not calculated. However, because all BCFs were less than 100, it was evaluated that a steady-state was reached after 28 days.
- Lipid content: The change of lipid contents during the test was + 15% i.e. within ± 25%.
- Fish observations: No abnormality in behavior or appearance was noted.
- In the report in the summary tables the concentrations versus the BCFs were switched around. The low concentration had the higher BCFs. In the final tables and graphs presented in the report the concentrations versus BCFs were correctly reported. In the key results the correct values are presented. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- See 'Any other information on materials and methods incl. tables'.
- Conclusions:
- In fish (C. carpio), at test concentrations of 20 µg/L and 2 µg/L, the BCFs were determined to be <9.42 L/kg and <92 L/kg, respectively as no Floralozone could be determined at the starting day of depuration. The numbers presented are the limit of detection in fish 160 ng/g. (ug/kg fish).
- Executive summary:
The bioaccumulation of the substance was determined in a study according to Japanese national guidelines equivalent to OECD TG 305 and in compliance with GLP criteria (IFF, 2014). In this study groups of 24 fish (carp: Cyprinus carpio) were exposed for 28 days to nominal test substance concentrations of 20 and 2 µg/L in a flow-through system. Test water nominal concentrations were analytically verified and recoveries within ± 20% of nominal. After the exposure period, fish were measured for weight and body length, chopped into pieces and homogenised with tetrahydrofuran for analysis (whole body ww only). Fish lipid content was measured before and after the 28 -day exposure period and determined to increase from 3.02% to ca. 3.48% throughout the test which was attributed to growth of the fish. Depuration could not be examined because the test item in test fish at the last three successive analyses were below the LOQ. After the 28 -day exposure period, the BCF values at test concentrations of 20 and 2 µg/L were determined to be <92 and < 9.4 L/kg ww, respectively as no Floralozone could be determined at the starting day of depuration. The numbers presented are the limit of detection in fish 160 ng/g. (ug/kg fish).
Taking into account the detection limit the worst case BCF of 92 L/kg ww for whole fish can be converted to a standard fish lipid content of 5%, which would result in a BCF <= <132 L/kg ww (92/3.48*5).
Reference
Description of key information
BCF in an OECD TG 305 is < 132 L/kg based on 5% lipid content, the value is based on absence of substance in fish at the start of depuration and the detection limit in fish of 160 ng/g (ug/kg) fish.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- BCF (aquatic species):
- 132 L/kg ww
