- yes
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Remarks:
- Only the highest concentration could be measured, as the other concentrations fell below the assay detection limit. Therefore, nominal concentrations were used.
- Details on sampling:
- - Concentrations: 260 mg enzyme contrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 100 mg active enzyme protein/L)
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: During the duration of the test, the samples were treated the same as the test concentrations. Thereafter, the samples were stored frozen until analysis. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: Dilution in water
- Controls: Elendt M4 medium
- Evidence of undissolved material (e.g. precipitate, surface film, etc.): No - Test organisms (species):

- Total exposure duration:
- 48 h
- Hardness:

- Conclusions:
- Exposure of Daphnia magna to beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase based on nominal concentrations gave EC50 value of greater than 260.7 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 100 mg active enzyme protein/L). The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) was the highest concentration tested, 260.7 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 100 mg active enzyme protein/L).
- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase to Daphnia magna. The method followed was designed to be compatible with the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (April 2004) No 202, "Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test" referenced as Method C.2 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008.
20 daphnids (4 replicates of 5 animals) were exposed to aqueous dispersions of the test item at nominal concentrations of 16.3, 32.6, 65.2, 130.4 and 260.7 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L for 48 hours at a temperature of 21 °C to 22 °C under static test conditions. The number of immobilized Daphnia was recorded after 24 and 48 hours.
Analysis of the test preparations at 0 and 48 hours were performed by the Sponsor. Only the highest concentration could be measured, as the other concentrations fell below the assay detection limit. Therefore, nominal concentrations were used.
Exposure of Daphnia magna to beta-N-acetylhexosaminidase based on nominal concentrations gave EC50 value of greater than 260.7 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 100 mg active enzyme protein/L). The No Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC) was the highest concentration tested, 260.7 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L (equivalent to 100 mg active enzyme protein/L).

Daphnia were considered to be immobile if they were unable to swim within 15 seconds following gentle touch of the animal with a pin. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the test, the 48h EC50 value for mucorpepsin batch PPR 3583 was determined to 398 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L, equivalent to 117 mg active enzyme protein/L and the no-observed-effect concentration 42.5 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L, equivalent to 12.5 mg active enzyme protein/L.
- Executive summary:
The purpose of this study was to screen mucorpepsin batch PPR3583 for the test material concentration estimated to immobilise 50% of the Daphnia magna after 24 and 48 hours exposure. DAPHTOXKIT F™ magna was supplied by MicroBioTests Inc. The testing of the mucorpepsin batch PPR3583 was performed as a screening with a broad range of concentrations 21.3, 42.5, 85.0, 170.1, 340.2 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L nominal. The acceptance criterion for a valid test is that the spontaneous immobility in the control is below or equal to 10%.
Under the conditions of the test, the 48h EC50 value for mucorpepsin batch PPR 3583 was determined to 398 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L, equivalent to 117 mg active enzyme protein/L and the no-observed-effect concentration 42.5 mg enzyme concentrate dry matter/L, equivalent to 12.5 mg active enzyme protein/L.
