- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
Each test solution was prepared separately (differential loading) by directly adding test substance to test medium. For each concentration, the test substance was weighed into a 1 L or 5 L volumetric flask and filled to the mark with test medium. The mixture was then placed in an ultrasonic bath for 10 minutes and stirred for about 4 days at 20 ± 2 °C. Undissolved test substance was removed by centrifugation (approximately 20 min at about 17700 G, Beckman Coulter TM, Avanti J 25). After centrifugation all test solutions were visibly clear.

OTHER TEST CONDITIONS
- Light intensity/Photoperiod: About 136 - 614 lux at a wave length of 400 -750 nm; 16 hours light : 8 hours darkness
EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
Each test vessel was visually checked for immobilized daphnids after 0, 24 and 48 hours. In addition any abnormal behavior or appearance was documented. Throughout the test, the appearance of the test solutions and dissolution behavior of the test substance was observed and recorded daily. The chemical and physical parameters of the test medium (total hardness, acid capacity, pH and conductivity) were determined after aeration and prior to use in the test. Dissolved oxygen, pH and temperature were measured at the start of the exposure and at the end of the exposure in replicate 1 of all test concentrations and the control. In addition, temperature was measured continuously during the whole exposure period in a separate vessel filled with water proximal to the test vessels.
TEST CONCENTRATIONS
- Range finding study: In a preliminary range finding test (experimental conduct in accordance with GLP, without a GLP status) the 48 hour EC50 was between 1 and 10 mg/L. The range of no effect to 100% immobilization was 1 to 100 mg/L. The raw data of the range finding test will be archived together with the raw data of this study. - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7)

- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Tests with a reference substance, potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7), are conducted monthly. Reference substance tests are conducted according to OECD 202 guidelines and in accordance with GLP, but without a GLP status. The EC50(24h) of the reference substance potassium dichromate was 1.18 mg/L (experiment date: 22 Feb 2011, project number: 50E0063/043039).
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- For the statistical evaluation of the data and calculation of the EC50 the probit method (Finney, 1971) was used and performed with the commercial software "TOXRAT Professional 2.10” (ToxRat Solutions GmbH, Alsdorf, Germany).

Conclusion
In conclusion the 48 hour EC50 values for 2,6 Diphenylphenol in this acute toxicity study with Daphnia magna were 8.48 mg/L based on the nominal concentration (loading ratio) of the test substance and 0.159 mg/L based on the mean measured concentrations.
Since the measured concentrations deviated markedly from the nominal concentrations, the effect concentration, which is based on the mean measured concentrations should be preferably used for the evaluation of the test substance.
The results in this study are consistent with all validity criteria and the test is valid according to the guidelines of this study. No deviations from test guidelines or other incidents occurred during the course of the reported test which may have influenced the results.
