The water temperature, pH-values and dissolved oxygen concentrations in the test media of all test concentrations and the control were measured before the start of the test and once every day during the test. The appearance of the test media was recorded at the beginning of the test and once every day during the test.

- Behavioural abnormalities: Slight apathy at the highest concentration (73 mg/L measured), starting at 24h
- Observations on body length and weight: no
- Other biological observations: no
- Mortality of control: no
- Other adverse effects control: no
- Abnormal responses: no
- Any observations that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: no - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- According to OECD 203 the test item showed a LC50 >73 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test substance was evaluated with Zebrafish using a 96-hour static test according to OECD guideline No. 203 and EU method C.1. A preliminary test preceded the definitive test. Five concentrations of the test substance were used together with a control at: 4.6, 10, 22, 46 and 100 mg/L. 14 daphnids (in two replicates of seven) were exposed to each concentration for 96 hours and mortality and symptoms of intoxications were recorded at 3, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. Initial concentrations of the test item measured in the definitive test solutions were 67% till 73 % of the corresponding nominal values. Therefore, the reported biological results are related to the total mean measured test article concentrations: 3.2, 6.7, 15.6, 31 and 73 mg/L. Under the experimental conditions, the 96-hour LC50 of the test substance in a static test system is >73 mg/L for Zebrafish.
