Specific details on test material used for the study:
WAF preparation:
Loading rates (nominal concentrations): A stock elution was prepare using a nominal concentration of 1000 mg/L. After adding salts, it was then diluted to get all the tested concentrations.
Sample weight: Direct addition of 1000 mg (actial weight = 999.8 mg) per liter for the stock elution
Ambient temperature 20°C. Orbital shaker 100 rpm- 7 days.
At the end of shaking, the eluate is slightly turbid and whitish, partly jellified and hard to filter. After longer decantation a thin a whitish layer settles on the bottom of the container.
Filtration: With vacuum filtration apparatus and membranes with 0.45 µm pores of cellulose nitrate. After filtrations, the stock eluate was added with the salts and dilutions were prepared using the cultivation medium. Oxygenation of the eluate and its dilutions followed, via air insufflation for 30’ prior to starting the test and acclimatation to test temperature (20 °C).
Analytical monitoring:
not specified
Details on sampling:
To obtain the medium to be tested with the sample, appropriate volumes of the stock WAF (added with salts) and its dilutions and of the algae inoculum were used. For the negative control, the WAF is replaced by the algae culture medium prepared using distilled water.

Details on results:
Acute toxicity: ErC50 > 1000 mg/L
After a 72h.exposure, growth rates at some tested concentrations are significantly different from that of the control. Nonetheless, the maximum percentage of inhibition of the average growh rate is %Ir 8.22%±0.04% for r the maximum tested concentration (1000 mg/L). Being %Ir < 50%, we have ErC50 > 1000 mg/L.
Chronic toxicity: NOEC ≥ 250 mg/L; ErC10 > 1000 mg/L
Based on the Dunnett’s Test, the maximum sample concentration with no significant difference from the control is 250 mg/L Thus, we have that the No Observed Effect Concentration NOEC ≥ 250 mg/L. Its actual value ranging between 250 and 500 mg/L. As above, being maximum %Ir <10%, we have ErC10 > 1000 mg/L
Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
Acute toxicity: ErC50 > 1000 mg/L
Chronic toxicity: NOEC ≥ 250 mg/L; ErC10 > 1000 mg/L
Executive summary:

Algae were exposed to the test substance in a range of concentrations to evaluate values of acute (ErC50) and chronic toxicity (NOEC, ErC10), by comparing the growth rated with those of the negative control after 24h, 48h and 72h. Overall, the following results were obtained:


Acute toxicity: ErC50 > 1000 mg/L
Chronic toxicity: NOEC ≥ 250 mg/L; ErC10 > 1000 mg/L

Validity criteria fulfilled:

Conclusions:
For the sample it was not possible to calculate the EC50 value via the PROBIT software, since a limited number of Daphnia specimen was immobilized after 48h at any of the tested concentrations, never reaching 50%.
The maximum number of immobilized animals is 2 out of 20 (10%). Overall, EC50 > 1000 mg/L.
Executive summary:

Young daphnids, aged less than 24 hours at the start of the test, were exposed to the test substance in a range of concentrations, for a period of 48 hours. The immobilisation was recorded at 24 hours and 48 hours and compared with the control. The results were analysed to assess the EC50 at 48h.


Overall, EC50 > 1000 mg/L.

Inoculum or test system:

Remarks:
river water
Details on inoculum:
River water was sampled from the Rhine near Heveadorp, The Netherlands (26-09-2019). The nearest plant (Arnhem-Zuid) treating domestic wastewater biologically was 3 km upstream. The river water was aerated for 7 days before use to reduce the endogenous respiration (van Ginkel and Stroo, 1992). River water without particles was used as inoculum. The particles were removed by sedimentation after 1 day while moderately aerating.

Interpretation of results:

Conclusions:
The test item was biodegraded by 66% at day 28 in the OECD 301D Closed Bottle test. Over 60% biodegradation was not achieved within a period of 10 days (14 days for the Closed Bottle test) immediately following the attainment of 10% biodegradation. The time window criterion should however not be applied because organo chlorinated compound 35 wt% Cl is a mixture of constituents (UVCB). The biodegradation of organo chlorinated compound 35 wt% is therefore an addition of different biodegradation curves and the time window should therefore not be used as a pass/fail criterion. Organo chlorinated compound 35 wt% is therefore classified as readily biodegradable based on the >60% biodegradation reached at day 28.
The test is valid as shown by an endogenous respiration of 0.75 mg/L and by the total mineralization of the reference compound, sodium acetate. Sodium acetate was degraded by 83% of its theoretical oxygen demand after 14 days. Finally, the most important criterion was met by oxygen concentrations >0.5 mg/L in all bottles during the test period
Executive summary:

To assess the biotic degradation of organo chlorinated compound 35 wt% Cl, a ready biodegradability test was performed which allows the biodegradability to be measured in an aerobic aqueous medium. The ready biodegradability was determined in the Closed Bottle test performed according to slightly modified OECD, EU and ISO Test Guidelines, and in compliance with the OECD principles of Good Laboratory Practice.
The test item (2.0 mg/L) was exposed to river water which was spiked with nutrients, dosed in closed bottles and incubated in the dark at 22.4-22.9°C for 28 days. The degradation of the test item was assessed by measuring oxygen consumption. According to the results of this study, the test item did not cause a reduction in the endogenous respiration at day 7.
The test substance is therefore considered to be non-inhibitory to the inoculum.
