- Details on test solutions:
- Due to the low aqueous solubility and complex nature of the test item, for the purposes of the study the test medium was prepared as a Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF) of the test item
Nominal amounts of test item (5.0, 50 and 500 mg) were each separately added to the surface of 5 liters of test water to give the 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L loading rates respectively. After the addition of the test item, the test water was stirred by magnetic stirrer using a stirring rate such that a vortex was formed to give a dimple at the water surface. The stirring was stopped after 23 hours and the mixtures allowed to stand for 1 hour. A wide bore glass tube, covered at one end with Nescofilm was submerged into the vessel, sealed end down, to a depth of approximately 5 cm from the bottom of the vessel. A length of Tygon tubing was inserted into the glass tube and pushed through the Nescofilm seal. Microscopic inspection of the WAFs showed no micro-dispersions or undissolved test item to be present. The aqueous phase or WAF was removed by mid-depth siphoning (the first approximate 75-100 mL discarded) to give the 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L loading rate WAFs. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna
- Details on test organisms:
- The test was carried out using 1st instar Daphnia magna derived from in-house laboratory cultures.
Adult daphnia were maintained in 150 mL glass beakers containing Elendt M7 medium (see Annex 2) in a temperature controlled room maintaining the water temperature at 18 to 22 °C. The lighting cycle was controlled to give a 16 hours light and 8 hours darkness cycle with 20 minute dawn and dusk transition periods. Each culture was fed daily with a mixture of algal suspension (Desmodesmus subspicatus) and Tetramin® flake food suspension. Culture conditions ensured that reproduction was by parthenogenesis. Gravid adults were isolated the day before initiation of the test, such that the young daphnids produced overnight were less than 24 hours old. These young were removed from the cultures and used for testing. The diet and diluent water are considered not to contain any contaminant that would affect the integrity or outcome of the study. - Test type:
- semi-static
- Water media type:
- other: Reconstituted water (ISO medium)
- Limit test:
- no
- Total exposure duration:
- 48 h
- Test temperature:
- 22 ”C
- pH:
- 7.8-8.1
- Dissolved oxygen:
- 8.7-8.8 mg O2/L
- Details on test conditions:
- As in the range-finding test, 150 mL glass jars containing approximately 100 mL of test preparation were used. At the start of the test, 5 daphnids were placed in each test and control vessel at random, in the test preparations. Four replicate test and control vessels were prepared. The test vessels were then covered to reduce evaporation and maintained in a temperature controlled room maintaining the water temperature at 18 to 22 °C with a maximum deviation of ±1 °C with a photoperiod of 16 hours light (between 200 and 1200 lux) and 8 hours darkness with 20 minute dawn and dusk transition periods. The daphnids were not individually identified, received no food during exposure and the test vessels were not aerated.
The control group was maintained under identical conditions, but not exposed to the test item.
Semi-static test conditions were employed in the test in an effort to maintain dissolved test item concentrations. For the test media renewal at 24 hours, the test concentrations were freshly prepared and the daphnids transferred by wide bore pipette from the 24-Hour old test media into the fresh test media. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Effect conc.:
- >= 100 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- estimated
- Conc. based on:
- other: WAF (Water Accomodated Fraction)
- Basis for effect:
- mortality
- Remarks on result:
- not determinable
- Details on results:
- There was no immobilization in 20 daphnids exposed to a 100 mg/L loading rate WAF for a period of 48 hours.
Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item gave an EL50 value of greater than 100 mg/L loading rate WAF. The No Observed Effect Loading Rate was 100 mg/L loading rate WAF.
It was considered unnecessary and unrealistic to test at loading rates in excess of 100 mg/L. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The acute toxicity of the test item to the freshwater invertebrate Daphnia magna has been investigated and gave a 48-Hour EL50 value of greater than 100 mg/L loading rate WAF. The No Observed Effect Loading rate was 100 mg/L loading rate WAF.
- Executive summary:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of the test item to Daphnia magna. The method followed was designed to be compatible with the OECD Guidelines for Testing of Chemicals (April 2004) No 202, "Daphnia sp., Acute Immobilisation Test" referenced as Method C.2 of Commission Regulation (EC) No. 440/2008.
Due to the low aqueous solubility and complex nature of the test item, for the purposes of the test, the test medium was prepared as a Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF).
Following a preliminary range-finding test, twenty daphnids (4 replicates of 5 animals) were exposed to a Water Accommodated Fraction (WAF) of the test item at a nominal loading rate of 100 mg/L for 48 hours at a temperature of approximately 22 °C under semi-static test conditions. Immobilization and any adverse reactions to exposure were recorded after 24 and 48 hours.
Chemical analysis of the fresh test preparations at 0 and 24 hours (fresh media) showed measured test concentrations of 0.062 and 0.071 mg/L, respectively. Chemical analysis of the aged test preparations at 24 and 48 hours (old media) hours showed measured test concentrations of 0.030 and 0.039 mg/L, respectively. The dissolved test item may have been one or several components of the test item. Given that the toxicity cannot be attributed to a single component or a mixture of components, but to the test item as a whole, the results were based on nominal loading rates only. Exposure of Daphnia magna to the test item gave 48-Hour EL50 values of greater than 100 mg/L loading rate WAF. The No Observed Effect Loading Rate was 100 mg/L loading rate WAF. It was considered unnecessary and unrealistic to test at concentrations in excess of 100 mg/L.
