- Determination of the test item
The saturated solution and the control were analytically verified via LC-MS/MS at the start (0 and 24 hours) and at the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours). The method was validated prior to this study according to SANCO 3029/99 rev.4 (2000).
Sampling for the analytical monitoring
At the start of the exposure intervals (0 and 24 hours), sampling was carried out after preparation of the saturated solution. At the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours), samples were taken directly from the test vessels.
Quality criteria
Recoveries of the test item should be within ± 20% of the nominal or initially measured concentration. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- Test concentration
The effects of the saturated solution of the test item were tested in a limit test. The limit concentration is based on the results of a non-GLP preliminary range finding test.
Preparation of the saturated solution
A dispersion with a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L of the test item was prepared with dilution water (ISO test water as specified below) three days prior to the start of each exposure interval (at -72 and -48 hours).
100.3 mg test item (at -72 hours) and 100.2 mg test item (at -48 hours) were weighed out and transferred with 1000 mL of the dilution water into a brown glass flask, respectively. The dispersions were stirred with a magnetic stirrer for 72 hours with approximately 1100 rpm at room temperature. After completion of stirring, undissolved particles were removed by membrane filtration (membrane filter 0.45 µm, RC, MACHEREY-NAGEL). This procedure was repeated for the renewal of the test media after 24 hours.

- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The percentage of immobility for the reference item was determined after 24 hours. The EC50-value with 95% confidence limits (CI) was calculated by sigmoidal dose-response regression. The EC50-value for the most recent of the monthly performed reference tests was:
EC50: 1.95 mg/L (Cl: 1.14 - 3.30 mg/L)
The EC50-value of the reference item potassium dichromate after 24 hours is within the required concentration range of 0.6 - 2.4 mg/L of quality criteria according to AQS P 9/2 (02/2000) for daphnids clone 5 cultured in Elendt M4 medium. The EC50-value of the reference item is also within the recommended range of 0.6 - 2.1 mg/L according to OECD-Guideline 202. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Methods of evaluation
The effects of the saturated solution concentration were deduced directly from the observed immobilisation rates. All effect levels (EC10 / 50 / 100) given were based on the geometric mean measured concentration of the test item.
EC-values and statistica analyses for reference item
An EC50-value was calculated only for the reference item by sigmoidal dose-response regression. The respective 95% confidence limits were calculated from the standard error and the t-distribution. All calculations were carried out from the best-fit values with the software GraphPad Prism5.
Software
All data were computer-processed and rounded for presentation. Consequently, minor variations may occur from the original figures if manual calculations based on the original figures are made subsequently. Calculations were made using the following software:
- GraphPad Prism5, GRAPHPAD SOFTWARE, INC.
- Excel, MICROSOFT CORPORATION - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The saturated solution of the test item, which corresponds to a geometric mean measured concentration of 13.1 µg/L, induced no effects on Daphnia magna. Thus, the test item is not toxic at the level of the water solubility.
- Executive summary:
In the acute immobilisation test with Daphnia magna (STRAUS), the effects of a saturated solutionof the test item were determined according to OECD 202 (2004) from 2016-03-13 to 2016-03-18, with the definitive exposure phase from 2016-03-16 to 2016-03-18 at the test facility.
The limit test was conducted under semi-static conditions over a period of 48 hours. The test item is a yellowish, highly viscous liquid. A saturated solution with a nominal concentration of 100 mg/L of the test item was prepared. The saturated solution was visually clear during both exposure intervals.
Twenty daphnids, divided into 4 replicates with 5 daphnids each, were exposed to the saturated solution and the control.
The concentrations of the test item were analytically verified via LC-MS/MS at the start of the exposure (0 hours) and at the end of the exposure (48 hours) in the saturated solution and the control.
The measured concentrations were in the range of 6.19 to 22.1 µg/L at the start (0 and 24 hours) and at the end of the exposure intervals (24 and 48 hours).
The effect levels given are based on the geometric mean measured concentration of the test item.
The validity criteria of the test guideline were fulfilled.
