- - Observation of abnormalities (for algal test): In 80.4 mg/L levels, some bloated cells and small cells were observed. In 28.2 mg/L level, some cells were bloated. In 9.85 mg/L level, some small cells were observed.
- Growth inhibition: In 80.4 mg/L levels, growth inhibition was observed remarkably during exposure. In 28.2 mg/L level, algae grew until 24 hours after exposure, and growth inhibition was found remarkably after that. The algal growth in 9.85 mg/L level was logarithmic, although a little growth inhibition was found. The algal growths in 3.51 and 1.16 mg/L levels were same as control.
- Appearance of the solution: At the start of exposure, test solutions of all exposure levels were colorless and clear. At the end of exposure, the appearance of test solution in 80.4 mg/L level was colorless and clear, that in 28.2 mg/L level was slightly light green, that in 9.85 mg/L level was a little light green and those in other exposure levels were green, due to the algal growth. The solution of control was colorless and clear at the start of exposure, and it was green at the end of exposure due to the algal growth.
- Concentration of test item in test solution: The measured concentrations of test item in the test solutions at the start of exposure were 1.23-80.1 mg/L and those at the end of exposure were 1.10-80.6 mg/L, which were 89.7-102% of the concentrations at the start of exposure. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The EC50 (0-3 d) of the reference substance was 1.1 mg/L. This value was within the stipulated range (mean ± 2S.D.) [mean ± S.D.: 1.00 ± 0.20 mg/L (n=31, fluorescent lights)] to background data in this laboratory.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:

- Conclusions:
- ErC50 of the test item based on the growth rate was 20.0 mg/L (95% confidence limits: 19.4-20.6 mg/L). NOEC based on the growth rate (0-3 d) was estimated at 3.51 mg/L .
- Executive summary:
The objective of this study is to determine the 0-72-hour median effective concentration (EC50) and no observed effect concentration (NOEC) by conducting an algae growth inhibition test of the test item in Pseudokirchneriella subcapiitata according to OECD Guideline 201 (Freshwater Alga and Cyanobacteria, Growth Inhibition Test).
Algal cultures of three replicates were exposed to the substance at 100, 35.7, 12.8, 4.56, 1.63% stock solution content and incubated for 72 hours. Six replicate control cultures were also incubated in the medium without the test item.
In 80.4 mg/L levels, growth inhibition was observed remarkably during exposure. In 28.2 mg/L level, algae grew until 24 hours after exposure, and growth inhibition was found remarkably after that. The algal growth in 9.85 mg/L level was logarithmic, although a little growth inhibition was found. The algal growths in 3.51 and 1.16 mg/L levels were same as control.
In 80.4 mg/L levels, some bloated cells and small cells were observed. In 28.2 mg/L level, some cells were bloated. In 9.85 mg/L level, some small cells were observed. The conditions of cells in other exposure were same as the control. In the control, the conditions of cells was not abnormal.

At the end of exposure, the appearance of test solution in 80.4 mg/L level was colorless and clear, that in 28.2 mg/L level was slightly light green, that in 9.85 mg/L level was a little light green and those in other exposure levels were green, due to the algal growth. The solution of control was colorless and clear at the start of exposure, and it was green at the end of exposure due to the algal growth.
