- 102 mg/L
- Conc. based on:
- act. ingr.
- Basis for effect:
- biomass
- Details on results:
- The counting of fronds was done at the beginning and at the end of the trial. From the difference in the number of fronds at the beginning and at the end of the trial, the growth rates for the control and for each one of the concentrations are calculated (table 2 and table 3).
The weight of the fronds is determined at the beginning and at the end of the trial. The initial weight is calculated from the average of 6 repetitions of weighing 12 fronds. Table 4 shows the weights obtained for each of the test concentrations and the% inhibition of the biomass (yield)
The validation criterion considered for this study is:
- The average number of fronds in the control must present a growth rate specific medium of at least 0.275 per day.
- Duplication time of approximately 2.5 days, and multiplication by 7 of the number of fronds, at the end of the study - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The result of the periodic verification of the response of the test organisms to the positivo control is EC50 7d = 2.9 mg/L (validation criterion: the EC50 7d value of 3,5-diclofenol is in the range 2.2 - 3.8 mg/L)
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The test item has a value of EC50 (7d ) of inhibition of the growth rate of Lemna minor equal to 1099 mg / L (act.ingr.), and a value of EC50 (7d) of inhibition of the biomass (yield) equal to 102 mg/L (act.ingr.)
- Executive summary:
The study of acute toxicity to aquatic plants of the substance was carried out.
For the determination of the inhibition of algal growth, the freshwater aquatic plant Lemna minor has been used and following the operative method described in the OECD Guideline 221 (2006).
The freshwater aquatic plant Lemna minor has been subject to the substance at the test concentrations:
1; 3.2; 10; 32; 100; 320 y 100. The total duration of the trial has been 7 days.
The result obtained in this test indicates that the tested substance has an inhibition value of the growth rate EC50 (7d) equal to 1099 mg / L (act.ingr.) after 7 days of testing and an inhibition value of the biomass (yield) EC50 (7d) equal to 102 mg/L (act. ingr.)

Description of key information
There is one study conducted on the substance Direct Black RBK (CAS 2196165 -14 -5) according to the OECD Guideline 221 to determine the toxicity to aquatic plants Lemna minor. Based on the ECHA guidances, this test method is considered more suitable for testing toxicity of coloured test materials to aquatic plants, than the OECD guideline 201 to test the toxicity to aquatic algae.
The EC50 (7d) value 1099 mg/L active ingr. obtained in this study, shows that the tested substance is not harmful to this type of aquatic plant.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater plants:
- 1 099 mg/L
