- REPORTING FORMAT FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
1. HYPOTHESIS FOR THE ANALOGUE APPROACH
The reaction mass of sulphuric acid, hydrogen peroxide and peroxomonosulphuric acid is predominantly sulphuric acid (>80%). Although all constituents of the reaction mass contribute towards and are essential for the desired technical effects of the range, it is considered acceptable to read-across to data on sulphuric acid. This because significant toxicological effects are likely to be masked in the multi-constituent substance by its corrosive nature and so it considered appropriate to read across to the mean constituent, sulphuric acid, when considering aquatic toxicity.

- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Zero and 48 h (test system)
- Zero and 48 h (control) - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- - Reconstituted water (M4 medium) was used for maintenance of the test animals and preparation of stock/test solutions.
- To produce the only test concentration, 105.5 mg of the test material was added to 1L of dilution water.
- The pH was determined to be 4.0 and was adjusted to pH 8.0 with 1 M sodium hydroxide solution.
- Stock solution (19 mL) was taken and diluted with 1 mL dilution water containing 10 daphnids resulting in a final concentration of 100 mg/L.
- Two replicates were prepared for the test system and the control. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- - A population of parthenogenetic females of synchronised age structure was maintained for more than 15 y in the test facility at 20 ± 1 °C in a 16:8 light-dark photoperiod (illumination < 1000 lux).
- The culture water (M4 medium) was partly renewed once a week.
- Daphnia were exclusively fed with unicellular green algae (Desmodesmus subspicatus) ad libitum.
- Mortalities of parent Daphnia were recorded daily during the culture period in a semi-quantitative manner.
- Neonates were separated from parent Daphnia by filtration prior to the acute test. - Test type:

- No feeding took place during exposure.
- Photoperiod: 16 h light and 8 h dark.
- Aeration: None.
- Medium renewal: None.
- Adverse effects were assessed via test material-induced alteration of the normal mobility behaviour and the loss of locomotory actions of the neonates (observed at 24 h and 48 h). - Reference substance (positive control):

- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- mobility
- Remarks on result:
- other: pH 7.9 to pH 8.0
- Details on results:
- CONTROL
- Values at zero h were declared as outliers.
- Values after 48 h equal the values of the pre-test (51 mg/L) and the theoretical amount of sulphate (48 mg/L) in the dilution water.
- Therefore the values after zero h were replaced with the values after 48 h for further calculations.
TEST SYSTEM
- Results were expressed in terms of nominal concentrations.
- Recovery rates were corrected for sulphate content of the controls.
- Recovery rate corresponds to 109.5 % of nominal at zero h.
- Recovery rate corresponds to 102.9 % of nominal at 48 h.
- Recovery rates relate to the concentration of 48.0 % H2SO4 in the test material. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Not reported
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- No toxic effects on Daphnia were observed at a limit test concentration of 100 mg/L and the EC50 (48 h) value was reported as > 100 mg/L.

Additional information
Sulphuric acid, peroxomonosulphuric acid and hydrogen peroxide are each expected to contribute to the physico-chemical properties of the multi-constituent substance. However, significant toxicological effects are likely to be masked in the multi-constituent substance by its corrosive nature. It is therefore considered appropriate to read-across to the main constituent, sulphuric acid, when considering aquatic toxicity.
