- Executive summary:
This study was designed (as per OECD 202, adopted in 2004) to assess the acute toxicity of test chemical following exposure of daphnids up to 48h by static method. The test daphnids were acclimatized 48 hours prior to the test chemical exposure. After exposure on day 0, daphnids were observed for immobilization at 24 and 48 h. M7 medium was used as control, and the same was used for test chemical formulation. 25 mL glass beakers having a solution volume of 20 mL were used in the test. . Main study (i.e. limit test) was conducted using 0 (control) and 100 mg/L concentrations. 2 replicates/concentration having 5 daphnids/replicate was used for the main study. UV-Visible spectrophotometer method was used for active ingredient analysis along with stability of the test item in the test medium. Test item was found to be stable in the test medium. The active ingredient content results were considered acceptable (80-120%) as during main study 0 h and after 48 hours of exposure, which were found in acceptable range. Hence the results were based on nominal concentration since the deviation in the initial measured concentration didn’t exceed 20%. Environmental parameters such as pH (7.0), temperature (21.1-21.3°C), dissolve oxygen (6.5 - 7.9 mg/L), hardness (>140 mg CaCO3/L), photoperiod (16 h light- 8 h dark) was maintained in acceptable range throughout the test. Thus, fulfilling the validity criteria. Feed was not provided during the test. Normal behavioural response and no immobilization (0% mortality) were observed up to 48 h followed by control and test groups. The 48-h EC50 of test chemical to daphnid, Daphnia magna was >100 mg/l. The 48-h EC50 of reference item (Potassium dichromate) to daphnid, Daphnia magna(found to be in acceptable range) is 0.65 mg/L. Hence, the results of the test with reference item establish the acceptability of the test system response, test procedures followed, and results obtained with test item. Thus, test chemical was considered as non-toxic to aquatic invertebrates at environmental relevant concentrations and hence, considered to be ‘not classified' as per the CLP classification criteria.

Additional information
Various experimental studies of test chemical and its read across chemical were reviewed for short term toxicity to aquatic invertebrates endpoint which are summarised as below:
In an experimental study from study report (2022) for the target chemical, this study was designed (as per OECD 202, adopted in 2004) to assess the acute toxicity of test chemical following exposure of daphnids up to 48h by static method. The test daphnids were acclimatized 48 hours prior to the test chemical exposure. After exposure on day 0, daphnids were observed for immobilization at 24 and 48 h. M7 medium was used as control, and the same was used for test chemical formulation. 25 mL glass beakers having a solution volume of 20 mL were used in the test. . Main study (i.e. limit test) was conducted using 0 (control) and 100 mg/L concentrations. 2 replicates/concentration having 5 daphnids/replicate was used for the main study. UV-Visible spectrophotometer method was used for active ingredient analysis along with stability of the test item in the test medium. Test item was found to be stable in the test medium. The active ingredient content results were considered acceptable (80-120%) as during main study 0 h and after 48 hours of exposure, which were found in acceptable range. Hence the results were based on nominal concentration since the deviation in the initial measured concentration didn’t exceed 20%. Environmental parameters such as pH (7.0), temperature (21.1-21.3°C), dissolve oxygen (6.5 - 7.9 mg/L), hardness (>140 mg CaCO3/L), photoperiod (16 h light- 8 h dark) was maintained in acceptable range throughout the test. Thus, fulfilling the validity criteria. Feed was not provided during the test. Normal behavioural response and no immobilization (0% mortality) were observed up to 48 h followed by control and test groups. The 48-h EC50 of test chemical to daphnid, Daphnia magna was >100 mg/l. The 48-h EC50 of reference item (Potassium dichromate) to daphnid, Daphnia magna(found to be in acceptable range) is 0.65 mg/L. Hence, the results of the test with reference item establish the acceptability of the test system response, test procedures followed, and results obtained with test item. Thus, test chemical was considered as non-toxic to aquatic invertebrates at environmental relevant concentrations and hence, considered to be ‘not classified' as per the CLP classification criteria.
Another short term toxicity to aquatic invertebrate study was conducted for 48 hrs for assessing the effect of test chemical.The study was performed following the principles of the OECD Guideline 202 (Daphnia sp. Acute Immobilisation Test)under static conditions using Daphnia magna (Water flea) as a test organism. On the basis of the effect of chemical on mobility of the test organism Daphnia magna,the 48 median effect concentration (EC50) value was determined to be >1000 mg/l.Thus, test chemical was considered as non-toxic to aquatic invertebratesat environmental relevant concentrations and hence, considered to be ‘not classified’ as per the CLP classification criteria.
For the test chemical, short term toxicity to aquatic invertebrate study was conducted for 48 hrs for assessing the effect of test chemical.The test was performed following the principles of the OECD Guideline 202 (Daphnia sp. Acute Immobilisation Test).The study was performed under static conditions using Daphnia magna (Water flea) as a test organism. Test organism was taken from Daphtoxkit F™ magna, a commercial kit that provides daphnids in the form of dormant eggs (ephippia) that need to be incubate 3 days before the use to obtain neonates used for the test. Neonates less than 24 h old (25 for each condition) were fed with lyophilized spirulina as dietary supplement for 2 h prior to the test and then moved to the exposure chamber. Test chemical solutions were prepared by directly dissolving the test chemical in specific test medium (ISO 6341 Standard Freshwater). Test chemical concentration used for the study was 100 mg/l. Thus, a limit test was performed using 100 mg/l test chemical concentration. Selected bottled water was used only in the daphnid assays and satisfied the acceptability criteria for holding and dilution water described by the OECD 202 guideline. ISO 6341 Standard Freshwater was used as a test medium for the study. Media were aerated for at least 1 h prior to use in order to ensure that the dissolved oxygen concentration has reached saturation. Test daphnids (25 test organisms) were exposed with the test chemical at 20±1°C for a period of 48 hrs. No illumination of light was provided to the test vessel during the study. No significant changes in pH were recorded in the test solutions. Untreated ISO formulation freshwater was used as negative control. Potassium dichromate (0.32 – 3.2 mg/L) was used as a reference substance during the study. 48 h LC50 were derived by non-linear regression analysis. All statistical analyses were done using Prism5 (GraphPad Software, Inc.). One-way ANOVA was used for statistical comparisons with Bonferroni's, Dunnett's and Tukey's post hoc tests for multiple comparisons. Significance was set at p<0.05. REGTOX macro Excel™ for dose-response was used to obtain EC50 values by a non-linear regression analysis with Hill's model. Dissolved oxygen concentration was measured with HI9142 Portable Dissolved Oxygen Meter (Hanna Instruments srl) in all test chambers at the end of the test and was higher than 3 mg/l, according to the OECD 202 guidelines.On the basis of the toxic effect of the test chemical on mobility of the test organism Daphnia magna,the 48 hr median lethal concentration (LC50) value was determined to be >100 mg/l (nominal conc.). Thus, test chemical was consideredas non-toxic to aquatic invertebrates at environmental relevant concentrations andhence, considered to be ‘not classified’ as per the CLP classification criteria.
Overall, on the basis of above information, test chemical was considered as non-toxic to aquatic invertebrates at environmental relevant concentrations and hence, considered to be ‘not classified' as per the CLP classification criteria.
