- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
The solubility of the test item in the test medium was found to be low in reconstituted water according to an internal method.
Therefore, individual WAFs were prepared by adding the appropriate amount of test item to dilution water (reconstituted water) at loading rates of 0.01, 0.1, 1.0, 10.0, 50.0 and 100.0 mg/L during the dose range finding study and at loading rates of 0.53, 0.95, 1.71, 3.09, 5.56 and 10.0 mg/L during the main study. Each mixing vessel was filled to achieve minimal headspace given the constraints of the vessels and closed with foil-covered stoppers. The mixture was stirred using a magnetic stirrer at 100 RPM for 6 hours (the duration of mixing was selected based on the WAF equilibration trial).
During the range finding study and the main study, samples were collected on day 0 (0 hour, fresh) and day 2 (48 hours, aged) and the TOC content was analyszed TOC content, using the TOC analyzer (TOC Analyzer/TNML; Make: Shimadzu; Model: LCPH E200 ROHS).
The mixtures were allowed to settle and equilibrate to test temperature (before removing the test solution). The aqueous portions of the WAFs were collected using a steri- pipette and transferred to the test vessels. The same method was employed for the control group using reconstituted water.
Test organisms
- Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM
- Common name: water flea
- Strain/clone: Straus
- Age at study initiation (mean and range, SD): Young daphnids less than 24 hours old (Derived from healthy stock showing no signs of stress, such as high mortality rate, discolored daphnids, presence of male and ephippia, delay in the production of the first brood) were selected for the treatment.
- Source: In house maintained Daphnia magna procured from Environmental and Molecular Toxicology Division, Department of Zoology, Karnataka University, Karnataka, India.
- Feeding during test : No feeding during the test.
ACCLIMATION
- Acclimation period:
The 25 gravid female daphnids were acclimatiszed in reconstituted water for 48 hours prior to test (similar for range finding and main study). Daphnids were fed with live algal cells at the beginning and on Day 2 of acclimatiszation. Off springs produced on the first day are not used. Progenies produced on day two (less than 24 hours old) are transferred into the test containers and these daphnids were used for range finding as well as main study respectively.
During acclimatiszation of the dose range-finding test, the dissolved oxygen was between 7.43 andto 7.66 mg/L, the temperature betweenof 20.8 and 21.6°C, the pH betweenof 7.09 andto 7.21 and the hardness wasof 220 mg CaCO3/L.
During acclimatiszation of the main test, the dissolved oxygen was between 7.45 andto 7.86 mg/L, the temperature betweenof 20.3 and 20.9°C, the pH betweenof 7.32 andto 7.54 and the hardness wasof 220 mg CaCO3/L.
Prior to acclimatiszation, the glass jars were labeled for identification (study no., study code, no. of gravid females acclimatiszed, acclimatiszation start and acclimatiszation end dates).
- Type and amount of food: Daphnids were fed with live algal cells (Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata) of 2 mL per liter during the acclimatiszation.

No immobilisation was observed in the control group and at the nominal loading rates of 0.01 and 0.1 mg/L during the 48 hours observation period.
Main Study
Based on the results of the range finding study, the main study was conducted at the nominal loading rates of 0.53, 0.95, 1.71, 3.09, 5.56 and 10.00 mg/L of the test item along with the control.
No clinical signs of toxicity and immobility were observed in the control group and at the nominal loading rate of 0.53 mg/L during the 48 hours observation period.
Clinical signs of daphnids localised on the bottom of the container and lethargy were observed during the 24 hours and 48 hours observation periods at the nominal loading rates of 0.95, 1.71, 3.09 and 5.56 mg/L.

TOC-Analysis of the fresh test preparations at 0 hours showed measured TOC values to range from 0.8 to 4.2 mg TOC/L. TOC-Analysis of the aged test preparations at
48 hours showed measured TOC values to range from 0.8 to 4.3 mg TOC/L. The change in TOC content from 0 hours to 48 hours was smaller than 10% for each of the 6 different WAF loading rates.As the concentration of the test substance has been satisfactorily maintained within 20% of the measured initial concentration throughout the test, the results are based on nominal values.
