PPVE-2 (2.5 μL) was then injected through the septum with gas-tight syringe. Thereafter the septum was sealed using parafilm. Vials were rotated slowly for seven days, and then centrifuged at 500g for 90 minutes to pull dissolved test substance into a single drop at the bottom of the vial.
- Controls: Blank only
- Evidence of undissolved material: Test solutions contained a visible small droplet of undissolved test substance at the bottom of the vials.

- Details on results:
- Under the conditions of the study with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata exposed to PPVE-2, a 2.3% inhibition of growth rate was observed at 1.8 µg/L, which was considered the maximal solubility of PPVE-2 in the test media in a test conducted at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. This result is statistically, but not biologically relevant. The study report did not include an EC10 dose descriptor, but since the inhibition of growth rate did not exceed 10%, the EC10 effect concentration is by definition > 1.8 µg/L.
- Exponential growth in the control: yes.
- Observation of abnormalities: Microscopic observations at the end of the test revealed a normal and healthy appearance of the exposed cells when compared to the control.
- Any stimulation of growth found in any treatment: no
- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: undissolved test substance present throughout study. This was necessary to maintain saturation of the volatile and low-soluble test material.
- Effect concentrations exceeding solubility of substance in test medium: Yes. Undissolved test substance was observed throughout the test. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid? yes
- EC50: 0.86 mg/L (growth rate). Historical range for the reference substance at the contract lab lies between 0.82 and 2.3 mg/L
- Other: Reference substance toxicity assay conducted 63 days after the initiation of the test substance assay. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Growth rate data were normally distributed by Shapiro-Wilk's test, Shapiro-Wilk´s W = 0.968, p(W) = 0.890 (>0.01). Variance of growth rate data were homogeneous by Levene's test, p(F) = 0.084 (> 0.01). NOEC was determined using the Two-sample t-test porecedure (α=0.05, one-sided, smaller). Statistical calculations were done in ToxRat Professional v.3.2.1. (ToxRat Solutions ® GmbH, Germany).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Control cell density increased by a factor of > 16 (i.e. 132); The mean CV for section-by-section specific growth rate in the controls was < 35% (i.e. 13%); the CV of average specific growth rates in the whole test period for controls was < 7% (i.e. 3%).
- Conclusions:
- The 72-hour EC50 & EC10 (growth rate) of PPVE-2 to Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was beyond the range tested (nominal concentration of 100 mg/L, measured 1.8 µg/L, dissolved TWA). The test was conducted per OECD TG 201.
- Executive summary:
The toxicity of PPVE-2 to the freshwater alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata was assessed in a limit test according to OECD201. The test substance is volatile, therefore all tests were conducted in glass VOA vials, completely filled with medium and closed with a PTFE-faced septum cap. A water soluble fraction was made at a loading rate of 100 mg/L, with residual undissolved test material allowed to remain in the test vials, and visible undissolved test substance was observed throughout the test. Analytical measurement of test substance concentrations was conducted, to confirm the loading rate was well above the solubility limit of the test material in water. The time weighted average (TWA) concentration of the PPVE-2 in the test vials was 1.8 µg/L. The 72-hour EC10 and EC50 were > 100 mg/L (nominal concentration), and therefore greater than the water solubility of PPVE-2 in the test medium. A statistically significant growth rate inhibition of 2.3% was observed in the 100 mg/L (nominal) test, however this level of inhibition is not biologically relevant. The study was conducted according to internationally accepted test guidelines and in accord with GLP criteria. The test is considered reliable without restrictions, and the results are suitable for Risk Assessment, Classification & Labeling, and PBT Analysis.
