- At the start of the exposure and at the renewal (0 and 24 hours), samples were taken after preparation of the loading levels and analyzed. At the renewal and at the end of the exposure (24 and 48 hours), samples of the 24-hours old media were taken from the test vessels.

- yes
- Remarks:
- dilution water (Culture Medium Elendt M4)
- Details on test solutions:
- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: A saturated solution with a nominal loading rate of 100 mg test item/L was prepared at room temperature 24 ± 1 hour prior to the start of the exposure and the renewal of the test solutions. An appropriate amount of the test item was pipetted onto the surface of the dilution water. For this purpose, the density was taken into account. A slow stirring procedure was applied for 24 ± 1 hour at room temperature. After a separation phase of 1 hour at room temperature, the saturated solution was removed by siphoning from the bottom of the glass bottle and was used in the test. The saturated solution was checked via laser beam (Tyndall effect) for undissolved test item. The saturated test item solution showed no Tyndall effect. Out of the saturated solution 5 concentrations were tested in a test item solutions geometric series with a dilution factor of 1.8: 0.953 - 1.72 - 3.09 - 5.56 - 10.0 % of the saturated solution.
- Controls:
Control: Dilution water without test item incubated under the same conditions as the test groups.
Reference Test: A reference test with potassium dichromate was conducted as an acute immobilization test (acc. to AQS P 9/2 and OECD 202) in Elendt M4 medium under static conditions with a test duration of 24 hours once per quarter in order to prove the validity of the test system and test conditions at the test facility.
- Test concentration separation factor: 1.8
- Evidence of undissolved material: No. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- TEST ORGANISM
- Strain/clone: Daphnia magna STRAUS
- Age at study initiation (mean and range, SD): less than 24 hours old; Juvenile daphnids were removed from the culture vessels at the latest 24 hours before the start of the exposure and discarded. The juveniles born within the following period were used for the test. No first brood progeny was used for the test.
- Method of breeding: In glass vessels (2 - 3 L capacity) with approximately 1.8 L culture medium, at 20 +/- 2 °C, 16 hours illumination; light intensity of max. 1500 lx. The daphnids are fed at least 5 times per week ad libitum with a mix of unicellular green algae, e.g. Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata and Desmodesmus subspicatus. The algae are cultured at the test facility.

- Executive summary:
In the acute immobilization test with Daphnia magna (STRAUS), the effects of the test item were determined at the test facility according to OECD 202 (2004). The study was conducted under semi-static conditions over a period of 48 hours with five dilution levels of a saturated solution of 100 mg/L of the test item (nominal: 0.953 – 1.72 – 3.09 – 5.56 – 10.0 % of the saturated solution) prepared in a geometric series with a separation factor of 1.8. The geometric mean measured test item concentrations are 0.020 – 0.043 – 0.088 – 0.165 – 0.342 mg/L. The saturated solutions and the control were colorless and visually clear. Twenty daphnids (divided into 4 replicates with 5 daphnids each) were exposed to each concentration level and the control. The concentrations of the test item were analytically verified via GC-MS in the fresh media of all concentration levels and in the control at the start of the exposure and at the renewal (0 and 24 hours) as well as in the 24-hours old media at the renewal and at the end of the test (24 and 48 hours). The measured concentrations of the test item in the fresh media were in the range of 0.0396 to 0.417 mg/L at the start of the exposure (0 hours) and in the range of 0.0130 to 0.165 mg/L at the renewal (24 hours), without the 10 % loading rate due to 100 % mortality. The measured concentrations of the test item in the old media at the renewal and at the end of the test (24 and 48 hours) were in the range of 59 to 87 % of the initially measured values. The geometric mean measured concentrations were calculated. Procedural recovery samples (QC) were prepared on the 10 x LOQ level and treated in parallel to the test item samples. Mean recovery was 97 to 120 % and confirmed therefore the validity of the analytical method. The following effect concentrations with their respective 95 % confidence limits were determined: EC10 at 24 h was 0.152 mg/L (0.0884 – 0.273), EC10 at 48 h was 0.0869 mg/L (0.0510 – 0.156), EC50 at 24 h was 0.160 mg/L (0.0923 – 0.278), EC50 at 48 h was 0.0921 mg/L (0.0537 – 0.158), EC100 at 24 h was 0.342 mg/L and EC100 at 48 h was 0.165 mg/L. All effect concentrations are based on the geometric mean measured concentrations of the test item. The validity criteria of the test guidelines were fulfilled.
