Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The study was conducted under GLP according to OECD guideline 201 and EU method C.3 on the registered substance itself. The method is to be considered scientifically reasonable with no deficiencies in documentation or deviations from the guidelines, the validity criteria were met. Hence, the results can be considered as reliable to assess the toxicity of 2-Butyne-1,4-diol, reaction products with 1,2-oxathiolane 2,2-dioxide and sodium hydroxide (HBOPS-Na) towards algae.
In the lowest concentration no test item was detectable. In the remaining ones, the measured concentrations lay between 102 % and 128 % of the nominal concentrations at the beginning of the test and between 111 % and 170 % of the nominal concentrations at the end of the test. Treatments with 9.2 and 20 mg/L were below the calibration range. The higher deviations from the nominal concentrations were observed only at these lower concentrations. Determinations of the higher ones incl. the top concentration were more accurate. As no inhibition of growth was observed and the NOEC was determined as ≥ 222.3 mg/L (nominal) resp. 115.15 mg/L (measured) of the dry test item, the integrity of the results is given. Therefore, the determination of the results was based on the geometric mean of the measured concentrations.
As no inhibition of algal growth was observed in all tested concentrations up to 111.15 mg/L HBOPS-Na, it does not need to be classified as hazardous to the environment, neither acute nor chronic, according to Regulation 1272/2008 and amendments. - Executive summary:
The study was conducted under GLP according to OECD guideline 201 and EU method C.3 on the registered substance itself.
One valid experiment was performed.
The study was performed using 5 concentrations ranging from 9.2 to 200 mg/L nominal concentrations (= 4.6 – 100 mg/L dry weight test item). Incubation time (test system Desmodesmus subspicatus) 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 μ and the yield were determined from the cell number at the respective observation times.
Inhibition occurred only slightly and the values scattered within the different concentrations. In the highest concentration, however, no inhibition occurred, no dose-response was obvious. Therefore, no statistical evaluation was performed. At the start and at the end of the test, the content of the test item in the test solutions was determined using HPLC-UV.
In the lowest concentration no test item was detectable. In the remaining ones, the measured concentrations lay between 102 % and 128 % of the nominal concentrations at the beginning of the test and between 111 % and 170 % of the nominal concentrations at the end of the test. Treatments with 9.2 and 20 mg/L were below the calibration range. The higher deviations from the nominal concentrations were observed only at these lower concentrations. Determinations of the higher ones incl. the top concentration were more accurate.
As no inhibition of growth was observed and the NOEC was determined as ≥ 222.3 mg/L (nominal) resp. 111.15 mg/L (measured) of the dry test item, the integrity of the results is given. Therefore, the determination of the results was based on the geometric mean of the measured concentrations.
Therefore the results are given as a range. In addition, the results are also given in relation to the dry weight (50%) of the substance.
The 72h-EC50 values of potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7, CAS No. 7778-50-9) were determined in a separate reference test. The values lay within the range of the laboratory (growth rate 0.73 - 1.10 mg/L, yield 0.21 – 0.66 mg/L).
The following results for the test item 2-Butyne-1,4-diol, reaction products with 1,2-oxathiolane 2,2-dioxide and sodium hydroxide (HBOPS-Na) were determined:
