- Executive summary:
An acute aquatic toxicity study with Daphnia magna was conducted on test item according to OECD guideline 202, following GLP. In a preliminary range finding study no significant toxicity against daphnia was observed at the tested concentrations of 0, 1, 10 and 100 mg/L. Based on these results, the main study was performed as a limit test using the concentration of 100 mg/L. 20 Daphnia were exposed to the test item for the treatment for 48 hours in a static test system in 4 replicates of 5 daphnids per replicate. Elendt M4 medium was used as test medium. No vehicle was used since the test item was found soluble in test medium at the highest concentration tested. Negative control consisted of test medium alone and a solution of potassium dichromate was used as reference substance. A validated analytical method based on HPLC/UV was used to monitor the concentration and stability of the active ingredient in the test solution. The measured concentrations were 98 % of the nominal concentration at the beginning and 110 % at the end of the test. Therefore, the determination of the biological results was based on the nominal concentration. After 24 and 48 hours, the immobilised daphnia were counted. The concentration showed no toxicity. None of the animals was immobilised in the treatment and the negative control. Dissolved oxygen was higher than 3 mg/L in control and test vessels at the end of the test. Based on these results, the following conclusions can be established: 24h-EC50 > 100 mg/L, 48h-EC50 > 100 mg/L, 48h-LOEC > 100 mg/L and 48 h-NOEC ≥ 100 mg/L.

Because the deviation of the QC sample was higher than ± 3 %, the sensitivity correction factor from the QC samples (mean 86.8 %) was taken into account at the end of the test after 48 hours, using the following equation:
Cmeasured (mg/L) = ((measured value- a) / b) x (100 / QC Recovery Rate (%)) x factor
with: a = intercept, b = slope and factor = dilution or enrichement factor
