- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The test item was tested in an open static test system. Under the test conditions, the 96-h LC50 value for zebrafish was determined to be 15.66 mg/L (95 % CI: 11.20 - 21.90 mg/L).
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity (LC50) of the test item on zebrafish, Danio rerio was determined in a study according to OECD TG 203 and EU method C1. For this purpose, 7 zebrafish per test item group and per control group were exposed over 96 hours, under defined conditions. The fish were observed for signs of toxicity or death for 96 hours. Zebrafish of the test material groups were exposed to a saturated aqueous test item solution of nominal 4.27, 9.39, 20.66, 45.45 and 100.00 mg/L in an open static system. The analytical determination of the test item concentration was performed using HPLC with UV-detection. Samples were collected at the start (0-h) and at the end (96-h) of the experiment. The limit of quantification of the analytical method was 0.01 mg/L. The analytically determined concentrations were between 93.7 - 98.2 % at the Start and 101.9 - 107.4 % at the end of the 96 hour exposure period. During the experimental phase of the study, the test material concentrations could be maintained at > 80 % of the initial concentrations. Therefore, the LC50 values were calculated using the nominal concentrations. No signs of toxicity were seen in the control group and in the zebrafish exposed to nominal concentration of 4.27 mg/L. Signs of toxicity were observed at nominal concentrations ranging from 9.39 to 100.00 mg/L. They were observed immediately after exposure and lasted up to the end of the exposure. Signs of toxicity consisted of: fish lying on the side/back, fish near the bottom of the aquarium and abdominal position. Under the test conditions, the 96-h LC50 value for zebrafish was determined to be 15.66 mg/L (95 % CI: 11.20 - 21.90 mg/L).

Additional information
The acute toxicity (LC50) of the test item on zebrafish, Danio rerio was determined in a study according to OECD TG 203 and EU method C1. For this purpose, 7 zebrafish per test item group and per control group were exposed over 96 hours, under defined conditions. The fish were observed for signs of toxicity or death for 96 hours. Zebrafish of the test material groups were exposed to a saturated aqueous test item solution of nominal 4.27, 9.39, 20.66, 45.45 and 100.00 mg/L in an open static system. The analytical determination of the test item concentration was performed using HPLC with UV-detection. Samples were collected at the start (0-h) and at the end (96-h) of the experiment. The limit of quantification of the analytical method was 0.01 mg/L. The analytically determined concentrations were between 93.7 - 98.2 % at the Start and 101.9 - 107.4 % at the end of the 96 hour exposure period. During the experimental phase of the study, the test material concentrations could be maintained at > 80 % of the initial concentrations. Therefore, the LC50 values were calculated using the nominal concentrations. No signs of toxicity were seen in the control group and in the zebrafish exposed to nominal concentration of 4.27 mg/L. Signs of toxicity were observed at nominal concentrations ranging from 9.39 to 100.00 mg/L. They were observed immediately after exposure and lasted up to the end of the exposure. Signs of toxicity consisted of: fish lying on the side/back, fish near the bottom of the aquarium and abdominal position. Under the test conditions, the 96-h LC50 value for zebrafish was determined to be 15.66 mg/L (95 % CI: 11.20 - 21.90 mg/L).
