- Details on sampling:
- - Concentrations: The undiluted filtrate with the loading rate of 100 mg/L and dilutions of 1:3.2, 1:10, 1:32, 1:100 and 1:320 were used as test media. Additionally, a control (test water without test item) was tested in parallel.
i.e. 0 (control), 1:320, 1:100, 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and undiluted filtrate loading rate 100 mg/L (based on the results of the pre-study media preparation trials and range-finder).
Equivalent geometric Mean Measured equivalent concentrations: 0 (control), not analysed, not analysed, 1.4, 4.5, 17, 56 mg/L, respectively
Note: The samples of the two lowest test concentrations (dilution 1:320 and 1:100) were not analysed since these concentrations were below the 48-hour NOEC determined in this test.
- Sampling method: For the determination of the actual test item concentrations, duplicate samples were taken from each treatment before the test start and at the end of the test after 48 hours. For the 48-hour stability samples, the contents of the respective replicates were combined prior to sampling. Immediately after sampling, acetonitrile was added to each sample in the ratio of 1:1 to stabilise the samples during the storage period. All samples were stored deep-frozen (at about -20 °C). Based on pre-experiments for investigation of the storage stability (non-GLP), the test item proved to be sufficiently stable in the test water under these storage conditions.
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: See above. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
- Method: (non-GLP) range finding test: 0 (control), 1:100, 1:10 and 100 mg/L (loading rate/dilution rate) e.g. ca. 0 (control), 1, 10 and 100 mg/L nominal test item. 100% immobilisation was observed at 1:10 and 100 mg/L respectively. 0% at 1:100 mg/L loading rate/dilution rate.
For the definitive test: The dosing of test item was conducted as follows. Due to the low water solubility of the test item, a dispersion with the loading rate of 100 mg/L was prepared by mixing 121.7 mg of the test item into 1218 mL test water. No auxiliary solvent or emulsifier was used. The test item was mixed into the test water as homogeneously as possible using intense stirring for 3 hours at room temperature in the dark. The stirring period of 3 hours was chosen according to the results of a pre-experiment in order to maximise the test item amount in test medium. The dispersion of the test item was let to settle for 30 minutes in a separation funnel. The lower and upper phases were then removed and the middle phase was filtered through a membrane filter (0.45 micrometre pore size). The negative pressure of the filtration unit was reduced as far as possible to avoid losses of test item. The undiluted filtrate was used as the highest concentrated test medium and as stock solution for the preparation of the test media of the lower test concentrations. For the preparation of the lower concentrated test media, the filtrate was diluted with test water. The test media were prepared just before the start of the test (start of exposure). The undiluted filtrate with the loading rate of 100 mg/L and dilutions of 1:3.2, 1:10, 1:32, 1:100 and 1:320 were used as test media. Additionally, a control (test water without test item) was tested in parallel. i.e. 0 (control), 1:320, 1:100, 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and undiluted filtrate loading rate 100 mg/L (based on the results of the pre-study media preparation trials and range-finder). Equivalent Geometric Mean Measured concentrations: 0 (control), not analysed, not analysed, 1.4, 4.5, 17, 56 mg/L, respectively. Note: The samples of the two lowest test concentrations (dilution 1:320 and 1:100) were not analysed since these concentrations were below the 48-hour NOEC determined in this test.

- Effect concentrations exceeding solubility of substance in test medium: No. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The 24-hour EC50 and the 95% confidence limits were calculated by Probit Analysis.
The 48-hour EC50 could not be calculated by Probit Analysis or Moving Average Interpolation due to the steep concentration-effect relationship. Instead, the 48-hour EC50 was determined as the geometric mean value of the two consecutive test concentrations with 0 and 100% immobility (EC0 and EC100). The confidence limits for the EC50 correspond to the EC0 and EC100 values.
All reported biological results are based on mean measured test item concentrations. The lowest test concentrations (dilutions 1:320 and 1:100) were not included in the Probit Analysis calculation, as they were below the 48-hour NOEC, and thus, not analysed. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The test item 48h-EC50 was 2.5 (C.I: 1.4 – 4.5) mg/L based on geometric mean measured concentrations.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity to Daphnia magna was carried out according to OECD TG 202 Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test and EU Method C.2 guidelines under GLP. Following preliminary range finding testing, twenty daphnids in four replicates of 5 were exposed for 48 hours under static test conditions to an aqueous solution of the test item. Due to the low water solubility of the test item, a dispersion of the test item with the loading rate of 100 mg/L was prepared. The dispersion was continuously stirred at room temperature in the dark over 3 hours. After the stirring period, the dispersion was filtered through a membrane filter and the undiluted filtrate (saturated solution) was used as highest test concentration and as stock solution for the preparation of the lower concentrated test media. The following treatments were tested: Dilution 1:320, 1:100, 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and the undiluted filtrate in parallel to a control. At the start of the test, the analytically measured concentrations in the dilutions 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and in the undiluted filtrate (loading rate of 100 mg/L) were 1.6, 5.0, 18 and 57 mg/L, respectively. At the end of the test, the measured values decreased to 1.3, 4.2, 16 and 55 mg/L, respectively. The biological results were related to the mean measured test item concentrations calculated as the geometric means of the concentrations measured at the start and at the end of the test. The mean measured concentrations for the dilutions 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and the undiluted filtrate were 1.4, 4.5, 17 and 56 mg/L, respectively. The two lowest test concentrations were not analysed since they were below the 48-hour NOEC determined in this test. Under the conditions of this study, the 48h-EC50 was 2.5 (C.I: 1.4 – 4.5) mg/L based on geometric mean measured concentrations. The NOEC was 1.4 mg/L.

Additional information
Key study : OECD TG 202, 2011 : The acute toxicity to Daphnia magna was carried out according to OECD TG 202 Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test and EU Method C.2 guidelines under GLP. Following preliminary range finding testing, twenty daphnids in four replicates of 5 were exposed for 48 hours under static test conditions to an aqueous solution of the test item. Due to the low water solubility of the test item, a dispersion of the test item with the loading rate of 100 mg/L was prepared. The dispersion was continuously stirred at room temperature in the dark over 3 hours. After the stirring period, the dispersion was filtered through a membrane filter and the undiluted filtrate (saturated solution) was used as highest test concentration and as stock solution for the preparation of the lower concentrated test media. The following treatments were tested: Dilution 1:320, 1:100, 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and the undiluted filtrate in parallel to a control. At the start of the test, the analytically measured concentrations in the dilutions 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and in the undiluted filtrate (loading rate of 100 mg/L) were 1.6, 5.0, 18 and 57 mg/L, respectively. At the end of the test, the measured values decreased to 1.3, 4.2, 16 and 55 mg/L, respectively. The biological results were related to the mean measured test item concentrations calculated as the geometric means of the concentrations measured at the start and at the end of the test. The mean measured concentrations for the dilutions 1:32, 1:10, 1:3.2 and the undiluted filtrate were 1.4, 4.5, 17 and 56 mg/L, respectively. The two lowest test concentrations were not analysed since they were below the 48-hour NOEC determined in this test. Under the conditions of this study, the 48h-EC50 was 2.5 (C.I: 1.4 – 4.5) mg/L based on geometric mean measured concentrations. The NOEC was 1.4 mg/L.
