Animal Husbandry
Daphnia magna is bred in the LAUS GmbH throughout the year. The animals are kept for the use in toxicity tests. They multiply by parthenogenesis, thus being genetically identical.
The husbandry is performed similar to the method described in the OECD guideline, following SOP 115 002 01 („Zucht und Hälterung von Daphnia magna STRAUS“), Version 12 from 02. Feb. 2015.

- Selection of Daphnia
23 hours before the start of the test, the adult animals were separated from the young. 2 hours before test start, the adults were caught with the help of a glass tube, and the newborn Daphnia, aged between 0 and 23 hours, were sieved from the medium and immediately placed into a 250 mL-beaker containing dilution water. After a settling-in period of 120 minutes, animals which showed no apparent damage were used for the test.
Switching from M4-medium (husbandry) to Dilution water (test) has been shown not to cause any detrimental effects for test Daphnia.
Study Performance
Using a glass tube, the Daphnia were caught and lifted from the beaker. They were put on a small sieve, and the medium surrounding the animals was sucked off using absorbent paper. Immediately after that, the animals were put into the respective test solution.
The test vessels were left to stand for 48 hours. After 24 and 48 hours, the immobilised Daphnia were counted. Daphnia are considered immobilised if they perform no movements or are only able to move their antennae when the beaker is gently agitated. Daphnia which are trapped at the surface of the test solution are also considered immobilised.
The pH, the concentration of dissolved oxygen and the DOC in the test vessels were measured at the beginning and at the end of the test.
All values were documented in the raw data.

- Details on results:
- In this study no toxicity was observed and no dissolved test item could be detected. In another study, an algal test according to OECD 201 preparation of the test solution was identic.
However, in the algae study at the loading rate 100 mg/L slight inhibition of algal growth was observed which indicates the presence of a very low concentration of dissolved test item in the test solution. That means in the daphnia study also dissolved test item was presence, but not measurable and not toxic against the daphnia.
No observations were made which might cause doubts concerning the validity of the study outcome. All validity criteria were met. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Potassium dichromate K2Cr2O7 (CAS No. 7778-50-9) was used as positive control in a current reference study to assure that the test conditions are reliable.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Not specified
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- One valid experiment was performed.
The study was performed as a limit test using 1 concentration of 100 mg/L nominal concentration. 20 Daphnia were exposed to the test item for 48 hours in a static test system. After 24 and 48 hours, the immobilised Daphnia were counted.
The concentration showed no toxicity. None of the animals were immobilised in the blank control.
Potassium dichromate K2Cr2O7 (CAS No. 7778-50-9) was used as positive control in a current reference study to assure that the test conditions are reliable.
At the start and at the end of the test, the content of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the test solutions was determined. The content of DOC in the treatment was in the same range as the blank control. Due to the marginal difference of the DOC concentration in the treatments and the blank control, no test item concentration was calculated based on the organic carbon content of the test item and measured DOC concentrations. Therefore, determination of the biological results was based on the nominal concentrations.
The following results were determined for the test item Hatcol 3178 (species: Daphnia magna).
48h-NOEC ≥ 100 mg/L
48h-LOEC > 100 mg/L
24h-EC50 > 100 mg/L
48h-EC50 > 100 mg/L - Executive summary:

At the start and at the end of the test, the content of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in the test solutions was determined. The content of DOC in the treatment was in the same range as the blank control. Due to the marginal difference of the DOC concentration in the treatments and the blank control, no test item concentration was calculated based on the organic carbon content of the test item and measured DOC concentrations.
Therefore, determination of the biological results was based on the nominal concentrations.
Due to the low solubility of the test item, the measured DOC concentrations in the treatment and in the control were in a similar range.
Due to the marginal difference of the DOC concentration in the treatments and the control, no test item concentration was calculated based on the organic carbon content of the test item and measured DOC concentrations.
Therefore, the determination of the results was based on the nominal concentrations.
This is in agreement with the OECD guidance document no. 23, where is stated: “For tests with chemicals that cannot be quantified by analytical methods, the effect concentration can be expressed based on the nominal concentrations (loading rates)”.
In this study no toxicity was observed and no dissolved test item could be detected. In another study, an algal test according to OECD 201 preparation of the test solution was identic.
However, in the algae study at the loading rate 100 mg/L slight inhibition of algal growth was observed which indicates the presence of a very low concentration of dissolved test item in the test solution.

The result of the test is considered valid.
