Executive summary:

The acute toxicity to O. mykiss of water accommodated fractions of VERSATIC 1019 was determined in a 96 h semi-static toxicity test with daily renewal of the test media. The test was conducted in seled test vessels. The 24, 48, 72 and h LL50 values (loading rates producing WAF resulting in mortality of 50% of the fish after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h exposure) were within the ranges 10 -30, 3 -10, 3 -10 and 3 -10 mg/l respectively.

no
Details on test solutions:
For the preparation of stock solution 100 mg/L of test substance was added to test medium and stirred for 48 hours in sealed aspirators. After standing for 1-1.5 hours, the stock solutions were drawn off (WAF, water accomodated fraction method) to make the different concentrations. The final loading rate concentrations of Neononanoic acid WAF were: 0, 100, 220, 460, and 1000 mg/L.
Test organisms (species):
Oncorhynchus mykiss (previous name: Salmo gairdneri)
Details on test organisms:
The supplier was Brow Well Fisheries, Ltd, Hebden, Yorkshire (UK). Fish Age/size/weight were fingerlings of 4.1-4.7 cm length and weighing 0.58-0.98 g. Feed (pretreatment) was provided unit 24 h prior to the test. There was no feed provision during test. The acclimation period was more than 12 days.

Nominal and measured concentrations:
The nominal concetrations of neononanoic acid WAF were: 0, 100, 220, 460, and 1000 mg/L. Measured concentrations of Neononanoic acid were: (mg/L): <0.5, 97, 173, 352, and 777.
Details on test conditions:
The 460 and 1000 mg/L loading rate concentrations had lower pH and a concurrent pH adjusted test concentration was run. The fish were exposed to WAF of neononanoic acid at 0, 10, 22, 46, and 100% of stock solution with daily renewal (Semistatic). Exposure vessels were 10 L glass bottles sealed with a glass plate and filled with 10 L of medium. There were 7 fish per replicate, 1 replicate/treatment condition. The study was conducted for 96 hours without aeration. The photoperiod: was 16 h light, 8 h dark. During exposure the fish were observed at 3, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h for mortality and sublethal signs.

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

The acute toxicity of Versatic 10, as measured by mortality to rainbow trout (Oncorrhynchus mykis) was evaluated in freshwater. Under the conditions of this study, the 96 -h LL50 was >100 mg/L based on measured concentrations of the test substance in water.

The acute toxicity to O. mykiss of water accommodated fractions of VERSATIC 1019 was determined in a 96 h semi-static toxicity test with daily renewal of the test media. The test was conducted in seled test vessels. The 24, 48, 72 and h LL50 values (loading rates producing WAF resulting in mortality of 50% of the fish after 24, 48, 72 and 96 h exposure) were within the ranges 10 -30, 3 -10, 3 -10 and 3 -10 mg/l respectively.

The results of an O.E.C.D. 203 Testing Guideline study with rainbow trout demonstrated that the 96 - hr LC50 value for Neononanoic acid was > 460 mg/l with a NOEC for mortality of 460 mg/L.
