- Executive summary:
This study was performed according to OECD Guideline 201 and EU Method C.3 with GLP statement in order to evaluate the toxicity of the registered substance towards Desmodesmus subspicatus. This freshwater green alga was chosen as a typical species of phytoplankton. The study was performed using 5 concentrations ranging from 10 to 1000 mg/L. Incubation time was 72 hours. The cell concentration of each replicate was determined by measuring the cell numbers every 24 hours with an electronic particle counter. Growth rate and the yield were determined from the cell number at the respective observation times.
Significant inhibition of algal growth was observed in all tested concentrations.
At the start, after 8h, 24h and 48h incubation and at the end of the test (72h), the content of the test item in the test solutions was determined using HPLC.
The test item was not stable during this study. The measured concentrations lay between 108 % and 111 % of the nominal concentrations at the beginning of the test and between 0 % and 34 % of the nominal concentrations at the end of the test. Therefore, the determination of the results was based on the geometric mean of the measured concentrations. Since the test item was not detectable in the two lowest concentrations after 24 h incubation, the half of the LOD/LOQ (corresponding to 0.013 mg/L) was used for calculation of the geometric mean for these treatments.
Based on the results of this study, the 72h-ErC50 and 72h-ErC10 values were determined at 194.03 and 7.20 mg/L, respectively, for growth rate, based on the geometric mean measured concentrations.

- Details on results:
- iSafeRat® Holistic HA-QSAR is mainly based on the thermodynamic relationship between water solubility and the aquatic toxicity. This model was constructed using high quality data for water
solubility and algal growth inhibition tests for 8 alkyl-/alkoxy-phenols (i.e. polar narcotic compounds).
The substance falls within the applicability domain of the model and was therefore reliably predicted for its acute toxicity (72h-ErC50) to algae. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Not applicable
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Not determinable
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The substance falls within the applicability domain of the model and was therefore reliably predicted for its acute toxicity to algae. The 72h-ErC50 value was determined at 123 mg/L (95% CL: 72.3 - 210 mg/L).
- Executive summary:
A QSAR prediction was performed to assess the inhibition of growth to algae of the registered substance. This QSAR model has been validated to be
compliant with the OECD recommendations for QSAR modeling (OECD, 2004) and predicts the endpoint value which would be expected when testing the substance under experimental conditions in a laboratory following OECD Guideline 201. The criterion predicted was the ErC50 (Median Effective Concentration for specific growth rate), a statistically derived concentration which is expected to cause 50% inhibition of intrinsic rate of growth of the test system within a period of 72 hours.
The growth inhibition of algae was determined using a validated QSAR for the Mode of Action in question (MOA 2, polar narcosis). This QSAR is based on validated data for a training set of 8 chemicals derived from 72 -hour ErC50 test on algae, for which the concentrations of the test substance had been determined by chemical analyses over the test period.
The substance falls within the applicability domain of the model and was therefore reliably predicted for its acute toxicity to algae. The 72h-ErC50 value was determined at 123 mg/L (95% CL: 72.3 - 210 mg/L).

At the start, after 8 h, 24 h and 48 h incubation and at the end of the test (72h), the content of the test item in the test solutions was determined using HPLC. The test item was not stable during this study. The measured concentrations lay between 108 % and 111 % of the nominal concentrations at the beginning of the test and between 0 % and 34 % of the nominal concentrations at the end of the test.
Therefore, the determination of the results was based on the geometric mean of the measured concentrations. Since the test item was not detectable in the two lowest concentrations after 24 h incubation, the half of the LOD/LOQ (0.025 mg/L / 2 = 0.013 mg/L) was used to calculate the geometric mean for these treatments. Geometric mean is calculated by multiplication of the n participating concentrations and taking the nthroot.

Additional information
To assess the toxicity of the registered substance to aquatic algae, one experimental study and one QSAR prediction are available.
The experimental study (LAUS, 2018), assessed as the key study, was performed according to OECD Guideline 201 and EU Method C.3 with GLP statement in order to evaluate the toxicity of the registered substance towards Desmodesmus subspicatus. This freshwater green alga was chosen as a typical species of phytoplankton. The study was performed using 5 concentrations ranging from 10 to 1000 mg/L. Significant inhibition of algal growth was observed up to 72 hours in all tested concentrations. The test item was not stable during this study. The measured concentrations lay between 108 % and 111 % of the nominal concentrations at the beginning of the test and between 0 % and 34 % of the nominal concentrations at the end of the test. Therefore, the determination of the results was based on the geometric mean of the measured concentrations. Based on the results of this study, the 72h-ErC50 and 72h-ErC10 values were determined at 194.03 and 7.20 mg/L, respectively, for growth rate, based on the geometric mean measured concentrations.
The QSAR prediction (KREATiS, 2017; model: iSafeRat® holistic HA-QSAR v1.8), assessed as a supporting information, was performed to assess the inhibition of growth to algae of the registered substance. This QSAR has been validated to be compliant with the OECD recommendations for QSAR modelling (OECD, 2004) and predicts the endpoint value which would be expected when testing the substance under experimental conditions in a laboratory following OECD Guideline 201. The growth inhibition of algae was determined using a validated QSAR for the Mode of Action in question (MOA 2, polar narcosis). This QSAR is based on validated data for a training set of 8 chemicals derived from 72 -hour ErC50 test on algae, for which the concentrations of the test substance had been determined by chemical analyses over the test period. The substance falls within the applicability domain of the model and was therefore reliably predicted for its acute toxicity to algae. The 72h-ErC50 value was determined at 123 mg/L (95% CL: 72.3 - 210 mg/L). This prediction supports the experimental result obtained on the registered substance.
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation).
