- Details on sampling:
- Stability of the exposure concentration under test conditions was determined by analyzing samples taken from the WAF prepared at 1000 mg/l during the range-finding study.
Sampling:
Frequency: at t=0 hour, t=24 hours and t=96 hours
Volume: 10 ml from the approximate centre of the test vessel.
Storage: samples were transferred to analytical chemistry on the day of sampling
During the final test duplicate samples were taken from the WAF's prepared at 0, 10, 32 and 100 mg/l.
Sampling:
Frequency: at the start of the exposure (t=0 hour)
Volume: 10 ml from the approximate centre of the test vessel.
Storage: samples were transferred to analytical chemistry on the day of sampling
Additionally, reserve samples of 25 ml were taken from all test solutions. These samples were stored at -20 °C for possible analyses - Vehicle:
- yes
- Details on test solutions:
- The procedure for preparation of the exposure solutions was as follows: weighed amounts (29.2, 52.1, 100.6, 166.9 and 311.7 mg) of test substance were spread out on microscopic slides and these amounts corresponded to the nominal concentrations to be tested. Each slide was put in 3 liters of ISO medium and the test material melted in a water bath at a temperature of ca. 60°C.
Each slide with the test substance was put in the required volume of ISO-medium, which was subsequently stirred for ca. 66 hours, untl the start of the test. After stirring, the microscopic slides were removed and the solutions were filtered through a paper filter to remove little drops of the test substance that had come off from the slides. The final test solutions were clear without precipitation and the intensity of the resulting water accomodated fractions (WAF's) increased with concentrations. - Test organisms (species):

- Nominal and measured concentrations:
- Range-finding study -
The intial actual concentrations were 0.014 - 0.017% relative to the nominal concentration of 1000 mg/l. After a period of 96 hours, the concentrations measured in the water accomodated fractions of nominally 1000 mg/l were jus above the detection limit of 41 µg/l.
Main study -
In all the samples taken from 0 mg/l, the amount of test substance was below the detaction limit limit of 10 µg/l. At the start of the study, the concentration of Mortrace SB Conc. in the water accomodated fraction (WAF) of nominally 10, 32 and 100 µg/l was just below or above the detection limit of 10 µg/l. Therefore, samples at 96 hour were considered to be of no relevance. - Details on test conditions:

- Details on results:
- In the range finding study, all fish exposed to the WAF's prepared at 100 and 1000 mg/l died within 24 hours and at 10 mg/l, no mortality was noted.
In the main study, after 96 hours of exposure, 70% mortality was recorded in the WAF prepared at 100 mg/l, whereas 90% mortality was found in the WAF prepared at 56 mg/l. In the WAF prepared at 32 mg/l, a total of 30% mortality was found and no mortality was noted in the WAF prepared at 10 and 18 mg/l.
Effects other than mortality were noted in the fish exposed to WAF's prepared at and above 32 mg/l and these were discolouring, hypoactivity, swimming at the bottom, loss of equilibrium and immobility. No effects were noted at the lower WAF's prepared at 10 and 18 mg/l. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The 96-hour LC50 was in between 0.18 and 0.32 mg/l.

- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the 96-hour LC50 for carp exposed to Mortrace SB Conc. approximated the minimum detection level of Mortrace SB Conc. in water (10 µg/l).
- Executive summary:
In the range finding study, all fish exposed to the WAF's prepared at 100 and 1000 mg/l died within 24 hours and at 10 mg/l, no mortality was noted.
In the main study, after 96 hours of exposure, 70% mortality was recorded in the WAF prepared at 100 mg/l, whereas 90% mortality was found in the WAF prepared at 56 mg/l. In the WAF prepared at 32 mg/l, a total of 30% mortality was found and no mortality was noted in the WAF prepared at 10 and 18 mg/l.
Effects other than mortality were noted in the fish exposed to WAF's prepared at and above 32 mg/l and these were discolouring, hypoactivity, swimming at the bottom, loss of equilibrium and immobility. No effects were noted at the lower WAF's prepared at 10 and 18 mg/l.
Under the conditions of the study, the 96-hour LC50 for carp exposed to Mortrace SB Conc. approximated the minimum detection level of Mortrace SB Conc. in water (10 µg/l).

Description of key information
The 96-hour LC50 value of 10 μg/L for Mortrace SB Conc. is based on measured concentrations of the test material (near the detection limit) in a static exposure study with carp (Cyprinus carpio).

Additional information
Two valid acute freshwater fish studies are available for Mortrace SB Conc. The key study was assigned a Klimisch score of 2 based on the uncertainty with the mean measured concentrations of Mortrace SB Conc., which were near the analytical method’s detection limit of 10 μg/L. The study was conducted with water accommodated fractions of the test material. The test species was the carp (Cyprinus carpio),and the reported 96-hour LC50 values were circa 10 μg/L. In another supporting, acute toxicity study with zebrafish (Danio rerio) (Klimisch score =2), water accommodated fractions of Mortrace SB Conc. were prepared and juvenile zebrafish were exposed for 96 hours under static renewal conditions. Under this scenario, no mortality was observed in the water accommodated fraction prepared at 1000 mg/L. The mean measured concentrations of Mortrace SB Conc. in the water accommodated fraction in this study was 0.0625 μg/L, the limit of quantification of the HPLC analytical method.
