Details on results:

The study was performed as a limit test at 100 mg/L nominal concentration. For the test concentration and the blank control, 20 daphnia were exposed to the test item for 48 hours in a static test system. After 24 and 48 hours, the immobilised daphnia were counted.

None of the animals was immobilised in the blank control or the treatment. Therefore no statistical evaluation was performed.
