- Method of preparation
The test substance, 20 mg of ST463 was dispersed in test medium, 1L of Elendt M4, to give a stock solution of 20 mg/L. This stock solution was then stirred for 48 hours in the dark, once stirred the solution was filtered through GF/F glass fibre filter paper, size 0.7 (µm, to achieve 100% saturated solution.
Due to the photosensitivity of the test material, stirring was conducted in darkness by covering with black plastic sheeting, and the weighing of the test substance and filtering of the solution was conducted under subdued lighting to reduce the amount of exposure to light .
This method of test solution preparation was based on preliminary investigations inot the solubilit and stability of ST463 conducted in the acute fish study. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- Daphnia magna (Straus) used in this study were cultured in-house and were obtained from a strain originating from the Institute National de Recherche Chimique Applique (IRChA), France.
Stock cultures of Daphnia magna were maintained in glass vessels containing approximately 500 to 800 ml of Elendt M4 culture medium with a 16 hour light: 8 hour dark photoperiod at 19 to 20°C.
Cultures were fed daily with a suspension of the unicellular green alga, Chlorella vulgaris. Culture conditions ensure that cultures reproduce by parthenogenesis.
The day before the start of the study, all juvenile Daphnia were removed from the laboratory cultures. The following morning, juveniles produced by the gravid (egg-bearing) adult Daphnia were
removed from the culture vessels and held in a separate holding vessel; these animals, which were less than 24 hours old, were used in the test.
The test organisms were maintained and the tests conducted in a reconstituted medium Elendt M 4. The medium was prepared using analytical grade reagents and deionised water. - Test type:
- static
- Water media type:
- freshwater
- Limit test:
- yes
- Total exposure duration:
- 48 h
- Test temperature:
- Cultures were maintained at 21 to 22 °C
- pH:
- ca. 7.7
- Dissolved oxygen:
- ca. 7.3
- Nominal and measured concentrations:
- Nominal concentration: 100% saturated solution
Mean measured concentration: 6.8 µg/L (0.0068 mg/L) - Details on test conditions:
- Experimental design:
Four replicate vessels were prepared for the control and the test group. The test vessels were 250 ml capacity glass jars.
Five first instar Daphnia were placed without conscious bias into each glass jar, containing 100 ml of prepared test medium to give a loading of 20 ml test solution per organism. The jars were loosely covered to minimise evaporative losses.
Due to the photosensitivity of the test material, exposure vessels were covered with black plastic and the Daphnia observations, chemistry sampling and environmental measurements were all conducted under subdued lighting to reduce the amount of test material exposure to light.
Selection of test concentrations:
The test material was expected to have little or no toxic effect at such a low limit of solubility. Therefore a preliminary range finding test was not considered necessary.
In agreement with the Sponsor, the decision was taken to conduct the definitive test at the limit of solubility.
Nominal test concentration: 100% saturated solution
Mean measured test concentration: 6.8 µg/L (Equivalent to 0.0068 mg/L)
The mean measured concentration of 6.8 µg/L was higher than the value achieved under the same conditions in the solubility trial (5.9 µg/L), conducted in a related acute fish study. The replication of such a low limit of solubility with a method of preparation involving prolonged stirring was thought to contribute to this variation. A difference in media type and temperature may have also affected the solubility.
Nominal exposure concentrations quoted in this report refer to the test material as received; no allowance has been made for a purity of less than 100%
Medium renewal:
Daphnia were exposed to the test and control conditions for a period of 48 hours without renewal of test media.
Environmental conditions:
Cultures were maintained at 21 to 22 °C, in darkness and without supplementary aeration or feeding during the 48 hour exposure period .
The temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen levels were recorded in stock solutions at 0 hours and in
each test vessel at 48 hours
Criterion of effect:
Daphnia were considered to be immobile if they were unable to swim within approximately 15 seconds following gentle agitation of the test vessel. - Reference substance (positive control):
