Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Concentrations: Control and all test concentrations.
- Sampling method: 3.0 mL, at t=0 h, t=24 h and t=72 h.
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: Samples were stored in a freezer (≤-15°C) until analysis at the analytical laboratory of the Test Facility.
- At the end of the exposure period, the replicates with algae were pooled at each concentration before sampling.
- Compliance with the Quality criteria regarding maintenance of actual concentrations was checked by running a test vessel at an intermediate item concentration but without algae and samples for analysis were taken at the start, after 24 hours of exposure and at the end of the test period.
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: Direct addition to the test medium. Test solutions were prepared at the highest concentration of 100 mg/L applying approximately 1 hour of magnetic stirring, followed by 1 minute treatment with ultrasonic waves, to accelerate dissolution of the test item in medium. Lower test concentrations were prepared by subsequent dilutions of the highest concentration in test medium. All test solutions were clear and colorless at the end of the preparation procedure.
- After preparation, volumes of 50 mL were added to each replicate of the respective test concentration. Subsequently, 1 mL of an algal suspension was added to each replicate providing a cell density of 10^4 cells/mL.
- Controls: Test medium without test item or other additives.
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- Raphidocelis subcapitata (previous names: Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, Selenastrum capricornutum)
- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM
- Common name: Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata
- Strain: NIVA CHL 1
- Source: In-house laboratory culture
- Age of inoculum (at test initiation): 3 days
- Method of cultivation: Algae stock cultures were started by inoculating growth medium with algal cells from a pure culture on agar. The suspensions were continuously aerated and exposed to light in a climate room at a temperature of 21-24°C.
- Pre-culture: 3 days before the start of the test, cells from the algal stock culture were inoculated in culture medium at a cell density of 1 x 10^4 cells/mL. The pre-culture was maintained under the same conditions as used in the test. The cell density was measured immediately before use.
- Stock culture medium: M1, according to NPR 6505 (Nederlandse Praktijk Richtlijn no. 6505).
- Pre-culture medium and test medium: M2, according to OECD 201.

- Details on results:
- - Exponential growth in the control: yes
- Observation of abnormalities: Microscopic observations at the end of the test revealed a normal and healthy appearance of the algal cells exposed to 4.6 mg/L when compared to the control.
- Growth rates were in the range of the controls at the concentrations of 0.46 and 1.0 mg/L during the 72-hour test period, whereas the growth rate of algae exposed to concentrations of 2.2 mg/L and higher were increasingly reduced. Statistically significant inhibition of growth rate was found at test concentrations of 2.2 mg/L and higher. However, effects were biologically relevant (i.e. >10%) only at the highest test concentration.
- All water quality parameters remained within the requirements as laid down in the study plan throughout the test. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid? Yes
- The EC50 for growth rate inhibition (72h-ErC50) was 1.1 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval ranging from 1.1 to 1.1 mg/L. The historical ranges for growth rate inhibition lie between 0.82 and 2.3 mg/L. Hence, the 72h-ErC50 for the algal culture tested corresponds with this range. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Statistical significance: Williams Multiple Sequential t-test Procedure, α=0.05, one-sided, smaller.
ECx: Weibull analysis using linear max. likelihood regression. The two lowest test concentrations were excluded from the analysis in order to have a better fit of the curve, since the test item showed a steep dose-response relationship at the two highest test concentrations.
The calculations were performed with ToxRat Professional v. 3.2.1. (ToxRat Solutions® GmbH, Germany).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- See 'Overall remarks' for details on validity criteria
- Conclusions:
- The 72-h ErC50, ErC10 and NOErC for Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was respectively 6.8 mg/L, 4.8 mg/L and 4.6 mg/L (based on biological relevance), based on nominal concentrations.
- Executive summary:
In a 72 h toxicity study conducted according to OECD guideline 201 and GLP principles, freshwater algae (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) were exposed to the test substance at nominal concentrations of 0.46, 1.0, 2.2, 4.6 and 10 mg/L (triplicate) and an untreated control (6 replicates). Measured concentrations in the test solution were at 108 -117% relative to nominal throughout the test. Therefore, effect parameters were based on nominal concentrations. The EC50 for growth rate inhibition (72h-ErC50) was 6.8 mg/L, the 72h-ErC10 was 4.8 mg/L. The 72h-NOErC was 1 and 4.6 mg/L based on statistical significance and biological relevance, respectively. The study met all validity criteria, and is considered reliable without restriction.
