- Details on results:
- A probit analysis was not possible due to the present lethality rate. Since the factor of the concentration levels was 2.2 (3rd root of10), no further concentrations were tested. The LC50 was given as a range.
- Sublethal observations / clinical signs:
To determine the substance content, at the beginning of the experiment, after 48 and 96 hours, approx. 100 ml were taken from the centre of the basin with a glass screw bottle
The averaged values were as follows:
Nominal (mg/L)
Mean (mg/L)

The analytical values were averaged over 80 % of the nominal concentration. Only two concentrations were measured due to the water solubility of the test item.

- Executive summary:
The objective of this study was to determine the acute fish toxicity of the test material using zebrafish (Danio rerio) according to OECD TG 203 (1984) under GLP conditions. For this purpose, 10 zebrafish per test item group and 10 zebrafish in a control group were exposed over 96 hours under defined conditions. The fish were observed for symptoms of toxicity or death. Zebrafish were exposed to aqueous test item nominal concentration of 22, 50, 100, 220 and 500 mg/L in an open static test system. Tween 80 was used as a solubilizer due to the test item's dissolution behaviour in the test medium. Additionally, a solvent control with 0.095 mL Tween 80/L was tested. At 100 and 500 mg/L substance deposits could be observed. Samples were taken from the 50 and 100 mg/L concentration groups and were analysed using HPLC with UV-detection. To determine the substance content, water samples were taken from the middle of the basin at the beginning of the test, after 48 and 96 hours. The analytical values were averaged over 80 % of the target concentration. Therefore, the biological endpoints were based on the nominal concentrations and the LC50 was given as a range. No signs of toxicity were seen in the control group. The zebrafish exposed to concentrations of 22 and 50 mg/L showed symptoms but no lethality. Symptoms of toxicity and lethality were seen in the concentrations 100, 220, and 500 mg/L. Under the given conditions of this study, the 96 h LC50 value was in the ranged 50 – 100 mg/L. the LC0 was determined to be 50 mg/L.

Additional information
The
objective of this study was to determine the acute fish toxicity of the
test material using zebrafish (Danio rerio) according to OECD
TG 203 (1984) under GLP conditions. For this purpose, 10 zebrafish per
test item group and 10 zebrafish in a control group were exposed over 96
hours under defined conditions. The fish were observed for symptoms of
toxicity or death. Zebrafish were exposed to aqueous test item nominal
concentration of 22, 50, 100, 220 and 500 mg/L in an open static test
system. Tween 80 was used as a solubilizer due to the test item's
dissolution behaviour in the test medium. Additionally, a solvent
control with 0.095 mL Tween 80/L was tested. At 100 and 500 mg/L
substance deposits could be observed. Samples were taken from the 50 and
100 mg/L concentration groups and were analysed using HPLC with
UV-detection. To determine the substance content, water samples were
taken from the middle of the basin at the beginning of the test, after
48 and 96 hours. The analytical values were averaged over 80 % of the
target concentration. Therefore, the biological endpoints were based on
the nominal concentrations and the LC50 was given as a range.
No signs of toxicity were seen in the control group. The zebrafish
exposed to concentrations of 22 and 50 mg/L showed symptoms but no
lethality. Symptoms of toxicity and lethality were seen in the
concentrations 100, 220, and 500 mg/L. Under the given conditions of
this study, the 96 h LC50 value was in the ranged 50 – 100
mg/L. the LC0 was determined to be 50 mg/L.
