- Remarks:
- Potassium dichromate K2Cr2O7 (CAS No. 7778-50-9) was used as positive control in a current reference study (GLP study no. 201207R201). The value was determined as 1.5 mg/L, lying within the demanded range of 0.6 – 1.7 mg/L.

- Effect conc.:
- 46 mg/L
- Duration:
- 48 h
- Dose descriptor:
- other: EC100i
- Effect conc.:
- 22 mg/L
- Details on results:
- •The 24h-EC50i of K2Cr2O7 should lie between 0.6 and 1.7 mg/L. The 24h-EC50i of K2Cr2O7 was determined as 1.6 mg/L in a separate GLP study (201301R201).
•Immobilisation in the controls may not exceed 10 %. Immobilisation in the controls was 0 %.
•The concentration of dissolved oxygen at the end of the test must be at least 3 mg/L. The lowest concentration of dissolved oxygen at the end of the test was 8.7 mg/L.
•The pH-value in the test solutions should not vary more than 1 unit during the test.
The highest variation was 1.1 units. As pH values were in a range which causes no negative effect onto Daphnia magna (7.7 – 8.8), this was stated as uncritical for the outcome of the study. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- All validity criteria but deviation of the pH values were met. For the estimation of the EC50s of test item and positive control, the fits showed sufficient statistical correspond-ence of the data with the dose-response-equation.
The concentration-response curve after 48 hours was extremely steep, showing a 0 % to 100 % rise in immobilisation between two successive treatments. No immobilisation oc-curred in the control.
At the start and at the end of the test, the content of the active ingredient of the test item in the test solutions was determined using HPLC. The measured concentrations showed good correlation with the nominal concentrations with the exception of treatment 1.0 mg/L. For the other treatments, the measured concentrations after 0 hours and 48 hours were in a range between 85 % and 109 % of the nominal concentration. The recovery after 48 hours in all treatments was in a range between 105 % and 112 %. As the nominal treatment of 1.0 mg/L was not used for determination of the biological results, because in the four lowest treatments no immobility was observed, the nominal concentrations were used for the determination of the results.
No observations were made which might cause doubts concerning the validity of the study outcome.
The result of the test is considered valid.
Reference
The following deviation from the study plan was documented:
The pH deviation in the main study was slightly higher than demanded in teh study plans. As pH values were in a range which causes no negative effect on Daphnia magna(7.7 – 8.8), this was stated as uncritical for the outcome of the study.
The deviation was signed and assessed by the study director on 26. Feb. 2013.
