- Details on sampling:

- Sampling method: For the determination of the actual test item concentration, duplicates samples were taken from the test medium and the control at the start and at the end of the test after 48 hours (stability samples).
For the 48-hour stability samples, additional flasks with adequate volumes of the freshly prepared test medium and the control were incubated over the test period under the same conditions as in the actual test (but without daphnids). Sampling from the test beakers with daphnids was not possible because the volume of test medium in the actual test (4 x 50 mL) was too small for the analytical requirements (500 mL per sample). The concentration of the test item was analytically determined in the duplicate test medium samples taken at the start and the end of the test. From the control samples, only one of the duplicate samples was analysed from each sampling time.

The samples were analysed immediately after sampling without prior storage. - Vehicle:
- no

- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: In order to assess the toxicity of the test substance containing to daphnids, a water accommodated fraction (WAF) with a loading rate of 100 mg/L was tested. Additionally, a control (test water without test item) was tested in parallel. Thus, a limit test was performed in accordance with the EU Commission Directive 92/69/EEC to demonstrate that WAFs of the test item have no toxic effects on the daphnids up to the loading rate of 100 mg/L. The test method was based on the OECD Guidance Document on Aquatic Toxicity Testing of Difficult Substances and Mixtures.
The WAF was prepared as follows: A dispersion with a loading rate of 100 mg/L was prepared by dispersing 249.9 mg of the test item in 2500 mL of test water using intense stirring on a magnetic stirrer. The dispersion was stirred for 3 hours at room temperature in the dark to dissolve a maximum amount of the test item in the dispersion. Ultrasonic treatment was not applied to avoid accelerating hydrolysis.
The short stirring period of 3 hours was chosen because the components of the test item are not stable in water (results of a pre-experiment to determine the solubility and stability of the test item in test water, without GLP). Then, the dispersion of the test item was filtered through a membrane filter (Schleicher & Schuell, Type NC45, pore size 0.45 pm) after the 3 hour stirring period. The test medium was prepared just before introduction of the daphnids (= start of the test).
The actual concentration of the test item in the test medium was analytically determined.
The limit test was based on the results of a range-finding test and the results of a pre-experiment to determine the solubility of the test item (without GLP). However, loading rates above 100 mg/L were not tested according to the EU Commission Directive 92/69/EEC.

Description of key information

Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
A 48-hour EL50 value of >100 mg/L (nominal, WAF loading rate) (highest concentration tested) has been determined for the effects of the submission substance (CAS 352230-22-9) on mortality of Daphnia magna, in accordance with OECD Guideline 202 (Daphnia sp., Acute immobilisation Test).
The study reports an analytically determined test substance concentration of <0.7 µg/L (<LOQ, mean measured). This value reflects the low water solubility of the test substance, but losses may also have occurred as a result of filtering of the test solution prior to addition of test organisms, and the potential for adsorption of the test substance onto the filter matrix.
Each constituent of the test substance has a slow hydrolysis half-life at pH 7 (predicted to be >200 to >630 hours). However, the hydrolysis rate greatly increases with higher pH; 2 to 5.3 hours at pH 9. This test was conducted at pH 7.7 -7.8. Some hydrolysis is likely to have occurred in the timescale of the test. In view of the test media preparation method and the static exposure regime it is likely that the test organisms were exposed predominantly to the parent substance at the beginning of the test, and to a mixture of the parent substance and the hydrolysis products of each constituent of the tested substance towards the end of the test.
