Summarized result for the toxicity of test chemical on the mortality of fish were reviewed and mention below:
This study was designed to assess the toxic effects of the test compound on the Zebra fish (Danio rerio). Test was conducted in compliance with the OECD guideline 203. The test substance was soluble in water. Therefore, the stock solution was prepared by dissolving 1 g of the test substance in 1 liters of potable water (passed through reverse osmosis system) with continuous 1 hour stirring. After the completion of 1 hour stirring test solution was prepared for achieving the test concentration of 6.25 mg/L, 12.5 mg/L, 25 mg/L, 50 mg/L & 100 mg/L, respectively. Study conducted under the static system for 96 hrs. Test animal was collected from Anytime Pet, Jariphataka, Nagpur. 8 fishes exposed to the test concentration. Aeration in test vessels was provided 1 day before the start of experiment. After the exposure of chemical (mortality, visible symptoms, pH, Temperature, dissolved oxygen content) were recorded after 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 96 hours of the start of the experiment. Based on nominal concentrations, experimental median lethal Concentrations [LC-50 (96 h)] for Potassium nitrite on Zebra fish (Danio rerio) was determined to be 100 mg/L by observing the mortality. As the effect were observed at borderline 100 mg/l, so we cannot classify the chemical as toxic.
Above study was supported by the second study from experimental report. This study was designed to assess the acute toxic effects of the test compound on the Zebra fish (Danio rerio). Bowl aquaria containing 10 liters of deionized water were loaded with 8 fishes each. A static procedure was used for the study and it was conducted in compliance with the OECD Guideline 203 (Fish, Acute Toxicity Test). The test solution was prepared by dissolving 1g of the test substance in10 liters deionized water with continuous stirring for achieving the test concentration of 100 mg/L, respectively. The limit test at 100 mg/L was conducted and it was observed that the LC-50 is greater than this concentration. Observations (mortality, visible symptoms, pH, Temperature, dissolved oxygen content) were recorded after 24 hours, 48 hours, 72 hours and 96 hours of the start of the experiment. The test vessels used were all glass bowl aquaria of 12” each. In a 96 h study for test chemical on Danio rerio, at a test concentration of 100 mg/L, the fishes were found to be freely swimming in the bowl aquaria without showing any abnormal symptoms. No mortalities were observed at the test concentration of 100 mg/l. No mortalities were found in the control aquaria. The LC0 (96 hours) was observed at 100 mg/L (highest concentration at which no mortality was observed). LC50 (96 hours) was > 100mg/L.
Thus based on the above effects, chemical consider to be nontoxic and not classified.
