Total hardness measured at the start of the exposure.
TEST CONCENTRATIONS
- Test concentrations: limit test performed at 1.25 mg/L.

- Conclusions:

In conclusion, the LC0 corresponds to the geometric mean measured concentration of 1.00 mg test item/L. - Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item to fish (zebrafish) was determined according to the principles of the OECD-Guideline for Testing of Chemicals No. 203 (1992) and EU Council Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008/ Method C.1 (2008) from 2017-03-27 to 2017-03-31 at the test facility.
An acute toxicity test with the threshold concentration of 1.25 mg/L was conducted under semi-static conditions with daily renewal of the test media. Duration of the test was 96 hours. Seven test organisms were exposed to the threshold concentration and the control.
Water quality parameters (temperature, pH-value and oxygen-saturation) measured at 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours were determined to be within the acceptable limits.
The determination of the test concentrations was carried out via HPLC on a reversed phase column in gradient mode with a Diode Array Detector (DAD). Evaluation was done from freshly prepared media after 0 and 72 hours and from the corresponding aged test media after 24 and 96 hours. The analytical method validation was done according SANCO/3029/99 rev. 4 (2000).
The measured concentrations in freshly prepared media were 68 and 88 % of the nominal value. In corresponding 24 hours aged test media, the measured concentrations were 82 and 84% of the nominal value.Therefore, all effect values are based on the geometric mean measured concentration of the test item.
All validity criteria of the test guideline were met.
In conclusion, the LC0 corresponds to the geometric mean measured concentration of 1.00 mg test item/L.
