Details on sampling:
The analytical determination of the test substance concentrations were performed at the beginning of the test and at the end of the test. The samples for analysis were taken from the highest (100 mg/L) and the lowest test concentration (1 mg/L). The samples for analysis (0 hours) were prepared at the beginning of the test and immediately delivered in transport box to analytical laboratory. The samples were analyzed on the day of delivery. The samples for analysis at the end of the test (96 hours) were delivered to analytical laboratory immediately after the end of testing. The samples were analyzed on the day of delivery. All samples were stored at laboratory temperature.The analytical results showed that the test substance was stable in dilution water under current test conditions.
Vehicle:
no
Details on test solutions:
Standard dilution water was prepared just before the test by admixing 2.5 mL of stored solutions A, B, C and D in 1000 mL of deionized water.A: 117.6 g CaCl2·2H20 in 1L deionized water (Batch No.: PP/2015/01588)B: 49.3 g MgSO4·7H2O in 1L deionized water (Batch No.: PP/2014/03001)C: 25.9 g NaHCO3 in 1L deionized water (Batch No.: PP/2016/04662)D: 2.3 g KCl in 1L deionized water (Batch No.: PP/2015/02174)The dilution water should have a pH 7.8±0.2, value measured in this study was 8.0 in the preliminary test. The content of sum Ca + Mg ions should have the value of 2.50±0.10 mmol/L, value measured in this study was 2.48 mmol/L in the preliminary test. The stock solution of the test substance was prepared in the dilution water. 200 mg of the test substance was weighed into 2000 mL of the dilution water for the preliminary test. The concentrations of solutions used in the preliminary test were obtained by dilution of the stock solution with dilution water.

Details on results:

Results with reference substance (positive control):
The sensitivity of the test species and correctness of test performance is periodically verified in six-month period by testing the reference substance, potassium dichromate.The results of verification test with K2Cr2O7 are the following:LC50 = 152 mg/L (96 h)From the result of the last interlaboratory test arranged by CSlab spol. s r.o. in 2016 we have obtained data for potassium dichromate 96 hours – LC50 generated at 12 laboratories. The following reference range of values could be calculated from those data:LC50 = 86 – 200 mg/L (96 h)The mortality of test organisms by the reference substance (96 hours, LC50) obtained from our last reference test meets the calculated range from the interaboratory test.

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
The experiment with the concentration of 100 mg/L included in the preliminary test has been performed using 7 fish, therethrough the conditions of the limit test have been fulfilled. It was demonstrated that the LC50 is higher than this concentration.No mortality was observed in the preliminary test. The exact values of LC50 could not be calculated and the values of LC are given in the form of a range. The LC100 and LC0 values were identified by direct observation.There is stated in the guideline that, if evidence is available to demonstrate that the concentration of the test substance has been satisfactorily maintained within ± 20 percent of the nominal or measured initial concentration throughout the test, the results can be based on nominal or measured initial values. We choose the nominal concentrations for the evaluation.LC50 > 100 mg/L (96 h) (nominal concentration)LC50 > 100 mg/L (72 h) (nominal concentration)LC50 > 100 mg/L (48 h) (nominal concentration)LC50 > 100 mg/L (24 h) (nominal concentration)LC0 = 100 mg/L (96 h) (nominal concentration)LC0 = 100 mg/L (72 h) (nominal concentration)LC0 = 100 mg/L (48 h) (nominal concentration)LC0 = 100 mg/L (24 h) (nominal concentration)LC100 > 100 mg/L (96 h) (nominal concentration)LC100 > 100 mg/L (72 h) (nominal concentration)LC100 > 100 mg/L (48 h) (nominal concentration)LC100 > 100 mg/L (24 h) (nominal concentration)
Executive summary:

The test substance, Reactive Orange 13, was tested for acute toxicity on fish Poecilia reticulata. The test was performed according to method C.1 – Acute toxicity for fish, Council Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008, published in O.J.L 142, 2008.

The preliminary test was performed in a range of the test substance nominal concentrations 1 – 100 mg/L. Based on no toxicity of the test substance found in the preliminary test, the study was terminated. The experiment with the concentration of 100 mg/L included in the preliminary test has been performed using 7 fish, therethrough the conditions of the limit test have been fulfilled. It was demonstrated that the LC50is higher than this concentration. The test was performed as static.

Samples for the analytical determination were taken at the beginning and at the end of the test. The analytical results from the preliminary test showed, that the test substance was stable in dilution water at conditions of the test.

There is stated in the guideline that, if evidence is available to demonstrate that the concentration of the test substance has been satisfactorily maintained within ± 20 percent of the nominal or measured initial concentration throughout the test, the results can be based on nominal or measured initial values.

For all evaluations and results the nominal concentrations of the test substance were used.

Endpoint:
short-term toxicity to fish
Type of information:
experimental study
Adequacy of study:
supporting study
Reliability:
2 (reliable with restrictions)
Rationale for reliability incl. deficiencies:
other: meets generally accepted scientific principles, acceptable for assessment
Qualifier:
no guideline available
Principles of method if other than guideline:
The study report contains the limited information on the test conditions because the study has been performed in 1994. However available information is sufficient to conclude on the classification of the substance. Further the test was performed on the vertebrates and use of results from old experimental studies is one of the options to provide information requested by REACH. New experimental studies with vertebrates must only be conducted if there is no adequate existing information.
