Sampling and analysis

Analytical monitoring:
yes
Details on sampling:
Samples were taken and analysed after 0 and 48 hours

Test solutions

Vehicle:
no
Details on test solutions:
Due to the low water solubility of the test item, the water-accommodated fraction was perapared by filtration of a saturated solution after stirring for 24 hours. Then, the test solution was disolved with deionised water enriched with minerals according to the guidelines.

Details on results:
No significant effects up to the water solubility of the test substance (38 mg/L) was observed. Therefore, no EC50 could be deteremined.
Results with reference substance (positive control):
The 24h-EC50 to potassium dichromate was determine dto be 0.98 mg/L and is thus in the demanded range of 0.6 - 2.1 mg/L.

Applicant's summary and conclusion

Validity criteria fulfilled:
yes
Conclusions:
No significant effects to Daphnia magna up to the water solubility of the test substance (38 mg/L) was observed. The NOEC after 24 und 48 hours was determined to be 38 mg/L. The 24h and 48 h EC50 is clearly above the maximum tested concentration of 38 mg/L.
Executive summary:

The acute immobilization of the test item Zorgol 8 to Daphnia magna (STRAUS) was determined according to OECD 202 (2004). 20 test organisms were exposed for up to 48 hours in a static test system to the limit dose of 100 mg/L nominal. At start and end of the test the test subatnce concentration was determined based on DOC measurements. The measured concentrations were 40% and 37% of the nominal value at the start and after 48 hours of the test resulting in a geometric mean concentration of 38 mg/L. This value is considered as the water solubility of the test subatnce. Therefore, the determination of the biolagical results are based on the mean of the measured concentrations.

No significant effects to Daphnia magna up to the water solubility of the test substance (38 mg/L) was observed. The NOEC after 24 und 48 hours was determined to be 38 mg/L. The 24h and 48 h EC50 is clearly above the maximum tested concentration of 38 mg/L.
