- Details on sampling:
- - Concentrations: all test concentrations and control
- Sampling method: Duplicate samples from the freshly prepared test medium at one treatment period of the first, second and last week of the test (Day 0, 7 and 16). Stability samples were taken at the end of two test medium renewal periods of 48 hours (Days 2 and 9) and at the end of one renewal period of 72 hours (Day 19).
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: frozen (at about –20 °C) immediately after sampling
For each sampling time the concentration of the test item was determined in one of the duplicate test medium samples (freshly prepared test medium and aged samples with food), from the nominal concentration of 100 mg/L and the control. The analytical samples of the concentrations of 6.25 to 50 mg/L were not analyzed as these concentrations were below the NOEC determined in this test and thus not relevant for the interpretation of the biological results. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- Prior to the start of the test and prior to each test medium renewal, the test medium of the highest nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L was freshly prepared by completely dissolving 200 mg of the test item (dosed in the range of 200.01 to 200.14 mg) in 2000 mL of test water using ultrasonic treatment for 15 minutes and intensive stirring for 15 minutes at room temperature. The test medium of the highest test concentration was diluted with adequate volumes of test water to prepare the lower concentrated test media.
- Test organisms (species):

- Common name: water flea
- Strain/clone: Straus

- Nominal / measured:

- Conc. based on:

- Basis for effect:
- other: reproduction, mortality and growth
- Details on results:
- - The concentration of the test item measured in the test medium of the nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L were between 98 and 100 % of the nominal values.
- Survival of the test animals in the control and all test concentrations at the end of the test was 100 %.
- No immobilised test organisms were determined in the control and all test concentrations after 48 hours of exposure.
- The first young offspring released from their parent animals were recorded in the control and at all test concentrations at observation on Day 7. Thus, the time of the first brood was not affected by the test item up to and including the highest test concentration of 100 mg/L.
- The mean reproduction rate of the daphnids in the control was 159 ± 10 living offspring per surviving adult (mean ± standard deviation). No statistically significant inhibitory effect of the test item on the mean reproduction rate was determined up to and including the highest test concentration of 100 mg/L (Dunnett t-test, one-sided smaller, α = 0.05).
- The mean body length of the daphnids in the control was 4.75 ± 0.10 mm. At all test concentrations the mean body length was not significantly smaller than the control (Dunnett t-test, one-sided smaller, α = 0.05).
- The 21-day EC10 and EC50 values for the mortality, inhibition of the reproduction rate and body length could not be calculated, since no toxic effects of the test item on daphnia up to and including the highest test concentration of 100 mg/L was observed. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- In conclusion, based on the results for survival, growth and reproduction of the test animals, the overall 21-day NOEC for the tets item was ≥100 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
The long-term toxicity of the test item to aquatic invertebrates - Daphnia magna, was tested in a 21-day study performed according to OECD 211 and Regulation (EC) No. 2017/735 Method C.20. A semi-static test with 5 nominal concentrations (6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 mg/L) and a control was conducted. Per treatment and the control 10 daphnids were tested. Daphnids were individually exposed in glass beakers covered with glass plates to reduce evaporation losses containing 80 mL test medium. A test medium renewal was performed every 48 or 72 hours. The test concentration in the medium was determined with HPLC-UV. The measured concentrations were in the range of 99 to 100 % of the nominal concentrationof 100 mg/L, therefore, the biological results are based on the nominal concentration. The test item had no toxic effects on survival, growth and reproduction of Daphnia magna after the exposure period of 21 days up to and including the highest nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L. Thus, the 21-day NOEC of the test item was determined as ≥100 mg/L. The 21-day LOEC was above the highest test concentration of 100 mg/L. The 21-day EC10 and EC50 for the mortality, inhibition of the reproduction rate and body length of the daphnids were higher than 100 mg/L. Additionaly, the acute 48 -hour EC50 of immobility was determined and it was clearly higher than 100 mg/L.

The test was considered to be valid since all relevant validity criteria have been fulfilled according to the OECD Guideline No. 211 (2012).
− Mortality of parent test animals in the control should not exceed 20 % at the end of the test. At the end of the test the mortality of the parent test animals was 0 %.
− The mean number of living offspring in the control should be at least 60 per surviving adult Daphnia at the end of the test. The mean numaber at the end of the test was 159.
− The coefficient of variation around the mean number of living offspring produced per parent animal in the control should be ≤25 %. In the control of the test it was 6.4 %.

Additional information
The long-term toxicity of the test item to aquatic invertebrates (Daphnia magna), was tested in a 21-day study performed according to OECD 211 and Regulation (EC) No. 2017/735 Method C.20. A semi-static test with 5 nominal concentrations (6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 mg/L) and control was conducted. Per treatment and the control 10 daphnids were tested. Daphnids were individually exposed in glass beakers covered with glass plates to reduce evaporation losses containing 80 mL test medium. A test medium renewal was performed every 48 or 72 hours. The test concentration in the medium was determined with HPLC-UV. The measured concentrations were in the range of 99 to 100 % of the nominal concentration, therefore, the biological results are based on the nominal concentration. The test item had no toxic effects on survival, growth and reproduction of Daphnia magna after the exposure period of 21 days up to and including the highest nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L. Thus, the 21-day NOEC of the test item was determined as ≥100 mg/L. The 21-day LOEC was above the highest test concentration of 100 mg/L. The 21-day EC10 for the mortality, inhibition of the reproduction rate and body length of the daphnids were higher than 100 mg/L. Additionally, the acute 48 -hour EC50 of immobility was determined to be > 100 mg/L.
