- Details on results:
- The difference in the time of hatch occurred randomly and did not show any dose-response relationship. The egg mortality was randomly distributed, no significant toxic effect on this life stage was observed. A clear effect was detectable for the sac fry larvae. Therefore the overall mortality shows nearly the same response relationship as already described for the fry mortality. 86.7% of the control embryos survived u ntil the end of the test. No mortality occurred at the concentrations of 0.3,1.5 and 3.2 mg test item/L. 6.7% overall mortality was observed at a concentration of 0.7 mg test item/L. However, as no mortality was observed in the higher concentrations of 1.5 and 3.2 mg test item/L, this effect was not detected as substance related. A clear substance effect was visible at the highest concentration of 7.0 mg test item/L, where 63.3% of the fish embryos were dead at the end of the test.
- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- Not applicable
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The LCso. LC» and LCa for length were calculated by using a three parametric normal concentration distribution function (CDF). The NOEC and LOEC were calculated by Williams t-test. a = 0.05, one-sided smaller.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Based on the test results the LC50 of the test item for Zebrafish (Danio rerio) was determined to be > 7.0 mg test item/L for the egg-and fry-mortality, 6.9 mg test item/L for the overall-mortality and > 7.0 mg test item/L for the parameter length. The NOEC of the test item for zebrafish (Danio rerio) on was determined to be ≥ 7 mg/L for Egg-mortality, 3.2 mg/L for overall mortality and Fry-mortality, all based on nominal concentrations. The EC50 based on body length was found to be > 7 mg/L, the NOEC to be 0.3 mg/L and the EC10 to be 2.101 mg/L (nominal).
- Executive summary:
The short-term toxicity of the test item to zebrafish (Danio rerio) was assessed in a Fish Embryo and Sac-fry Stages Test according to according to OECD 212 and GLP principles. For this purpose, fertilised eggs of Zebrafish (30 individuals per treatment) were exposed in a semi-static regime to nominal test item concentrations of 0 (negative control), 7, 3.2, 1.5, 0.7 and 0.3 mg test item/L. The embryos were observed daily for indicators of acute lethality in fish or sublethal effects. The test was terminated just before the yolk-sac of any larvae in any of the test chambers was completely absorbed or before mortalities by starvation started in the controls. The recorded effects were mortality, hatching, growth and symptoms of intoxication of the fish. The NOEC, LOEC and LC50for overall-, egg- and fry-mortality and length endpoints were calculated after 8 d of exposure. The test item concentrations were analytically verified by using liquid chromatography (LC-MS-method) to be 83-85% of the nominal in freshly prepared media, < 80% of the nominal at the start (for the low concentrated samples) and 50-53% of the nominal in the aged media. However, correct dosing of the test item could be demonstrated. Therefore, all biological endpoints were based on nominal test concentrations. All validity criteria of the guideline were met. Based on the test results the LC50 of the test item for Zebrafish (Danio rerio) was determined to be > 7.0 mg test item/L for the egg-and fry-mortality, 6.9 mg test item/L for the overall-mortality and > 7.0 mg test item/L for the parameter length. The NOECs of the test item for zebrafish (Danio rerio) was determined to be ≥ 7 mg/L for Egg-mortality, 3.2 mg/L for overall mortality and Fry-mortality in nominal. Based on body length sub-lethal effects were determined: the EC50 was found to be > 7 mg/L, the NOEC to be 0.3 mg/L and the EC10 to be 2.101 mg/L (nominal).
