Conclusions:
The median effective concentration (EC50) for the test substance, Sodium 2-(2,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-1H-inden-2-yl)quinoline-6-sulphonate, in a freshwater algae Desmodesmus subspicatus was determined to be >100 mg/L on the basis of effects on growth rate in a 72 hour study.
Executive summary:

Freshwater algal growth inhibition test was carried out on Desmodesmus subspicatus with the substance Sodium 2-(2,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-1H- inden-2-yl) quinoline-6-sulphonate according to OECD Guideline 201.

A limit test at sample concentration of 100 mg/L was performed. Effects on the growth rate of the organism were studied.

The median effective concentration (EC50) for the test substance, Sodium 2-(2,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-1H-inden-2-yl)quinoline-6-sulphonate, in Desmodesmus subspicatus was determined to be >100 mg/L. Based on this EC50 value and after comparing with CLP criteria for aquatic classification of the substance it is concluded that the substance Sodium 2-(2,3-dihydro-1,3-dioxo-1H-inden-2-yl)quinoline-6-sulphonate does not exhibit toxicity to aquatic algae (Desmodesmus subspicatus).
