- yes
- Details on sampling:

- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- Because the Test Item is poorly soluble in water, a test solution was prepared using a saturated solution method according to the Guidance Document on Aquatic Toxicity Testing of Difficult Substances and Mixtures, OECD No. 23. A saturated Test Item stock solution (nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L) was prepared by dispersing/dissolving the amount of Test Item into the test medium (ISO Medium) one day before treatment (each renewal period). This solution was shaken for about 24 hours at approximately 30°C and then was equilibrated for about 2 hours at approximately 20°C. The non-dissolved test material was removed by filtration through a fine (0.22 μm) filter to give the 100 % saturated solution. The test solutions were prepared by appropriate dilution of this stock solution just before introduction of the Daphnia (before treatment at each renewal period).
- Test organisms (species):

ACCLIMATION:
There was no acclimatization because the water used was similar to the culture water. - Test type:
- semi-static
- Water media type:
- freshwater
- Limit test:
- no
- Total exposure duration:
- 48 h
- Remarks on exposure duration:
- taking into account that the stability of the test item is not available, the test was performed under semi-static conditions. The frequency of the water renewal periods were 24 hours.
- Post exposure observation period:
- none
- Hardness:
- Total hardness of 246 mg/L (as CaCO3)
- Test temperature:
- The test temperature was in the range of 20.1 – 20.4°C measured in the test vessels. The additionally measured temperature in the climate chamber was between 19.7 – 20.7°C.
