- Expiration date of the lot/batch: October 2020
STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
- Storage condition of test material: The test material must be kept at room temperature in a pressurized container.
TREATMENT OF TEST MATERIAL PRIOR TO TESTING
- Treatment of test material prior to testing: A test solution was prepared at an initial loading rate of 150 mg/L. Test solution preparation was performed in an incubator at 17°C and included slow magnetic stirring for 2 days to produce a Saturated Solution (SS), while preventing evaporation. Subsequently, a settlement period of 3½ hours was applied to ensure that undissolved test item settled on the bottom of the flask. The SS was collected by means of siphoning the upper part directly into a number of test beakers which were completely filled.
Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Concentration of the test vessel was checked before the beginning of the test and was not as expected. A test limit at 150 mg/L of test substance was performed.
- After 24 hours, the concentration of the test substance in the test vessel was measured twice
- The concentration was again measured twice in a freshly prepared solution (duplicate analysis)
Test sample:
The samples were analyzed in duplicate on the day of sampling. 100 µL of the sample was transferred into a 10 ml vial containing 4900 µL ISO and 50 µL acetone through the septum of the vial with a syringe. After 5 minutes of incubation at 60°C, the headspace was analysed
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: A test solution was prepared at an initial loading rate of 150 mg/L (no correction was made for the purity of the test item). The loading was above the regulatory limit as it was anticipated that it was very difficult to get and maintain the test item in solution. The test medium was cooled to a temperature of 17°C as to avoid boiling of the test item. A one-litre glass flask was filled for ¾ with the test medium. The test item (96 µl) was then introduced into the flask (using a pipette) and directly thereafter the flask was completely filled with cooled test medium leaving no headspace. Subsequently, slow magnetic stirring for 2 days was applied in an incubator set at 17°C to ensure a Saturated Solution (SS) of the test item was reached in test medium, while preventing evaporation. Subsequently, a settlement period of 3½ hours was applied to ensure that undissolved test item settled on the bottom of the flask. The SS was then collected by means of siphoning the upper part directly into a number of 42.5 mL P&T vials which were completely filled and closed. All test solutions were clear and colorless at the end of the preparation procedure.
- Control: Test medium without test item or other additives.

Results and discussion
Effect concentrations
- Key result
- Duration:
- 24 h
- Dose descriptor:
- EC50
- Effect conc.:
- <= 1.95 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- meas. (initial)
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- mobility
- Details on results:
- Due to the technical difficulties encountered during the initial project of exposing Daphnia magna to the test item for 48 hours, it was not possible to generate reliable analytical results to calculate the 48h-EC50. It was however concluded that it is highly likely that the 48h-EC50 is below 1.95 mg/L according to the values of the measured concentrations over the 1st 24 hours of the test, which caused 100% immobilisation of daphnids.
- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance (potassium dichromate) : The 24h-EC50 was 0.64 mg/L for the test substance with a 95% confidence interval between 0.56 and 0.73 mg/L. The 48h-EC50 reference substance 48h-EC50 was 0.48 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 0.43 and 0.53 mg/L.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- no
- Remarks:
- Measurement of the quality control samples showed very high variability (varied between 10 and 66 %) and did not meet the SANCO criterion of 70-100 % recovery.
- Conclusions:
- Effect concentrations could not be determined as the test was stopped before the end. No options were found to improve the analytical method. It was not possible to perform a final test producing toxicity values based on reliable analytical results because of the high volatility, low boiling point and poor solubility of the test item.
It was however concluded that it is highly likely that the 24h-EC50 is below 1.95 mg/L according to the values of the measured concentrations over the fisrt 24 hours of the test, which caused 100% immobilisation of daphnids. - Executive summary:
The influence of the test substance on immobilisation of Daphnia magna was investigated according to OECD Guideline 202. Daphnids were exposed to the test item under semi-static conditions, for 24 hours.
A test limit at 150 mg/L was performed. The initial measured concentration of test substance was only 1.95 mg/L. All the daphnids exposed to this concentration of test substance were immobile after 24 hours of exposure, whereas all the daphnids exposed to the control were still mobile. Microscopic observation revealed that the immobilised daphnids had deceased. The experiment was consequently stopped and effect concentrations could not be determined. In conclusion, due to the technical difficulties it was not possible to generate reliable results to calculate the effect concentration. It was however concluded that it is highly likely that the 24h-EC50 is below 1.95 mg/L according to the values of the measured concentrations over the first 24 hours of the test, which caused 100% immobilisation of daphnids.
