- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
Preparation of test solutions started with an aqueous mixture at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. This mixture was magnetically stirred for 48 h and then left to settle overnight. This resulted in a hazy dispersion with a floating layer and precipitate. Subsequently, the hazy water phase was collected by siphoning it through glass wool. This resulted in a slightly hazy solution that was used for testing. The lower test concentrations were prepared by subsequent dilution of the Water Soluble Fraction (WSF). The final test solutions were all clear and colourless except for the undiluted WSF that was slightly hazy. - Test organisms (species):

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable): Immobility and mortality were recorded at 24 and 48 h.
TEST CONCENTRATIONS
- Spacing factor for test concentrations: Approx. 2
- Range finding study: Yes. Prior to the initiation of definitive exposure, preliminary range-finding test was conducted and data obtained from preliminary exposure was used to select the definitive test concentration. Test procedure and conditions were similar to those applied in the final test with the following exceptions: (1)Ten daphnids per concentration (in duplicate, 5 per vessel) were exposed to 0.1, 1.0, and 10% of the WSF in the combined range-finding test. (2) Dissolved oxygen concentrations and pH were only measured in the control and the highest test concentration. (3)Samples for determination of actual exposure concentrations were taken from the control and the highest test concentration at the start and the end of the test.
- Test concentrations: 0, 0.1, 1.0, 10 and 100% of the WSF
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study: All daphnids exposed to the undiluted WSF were immobile within 24 h, whereas no significant immobility was observed in any the WSF dilutions during the 48 h test period (See 'Table 1' in the section 'Any other information on results'). Thus, the concentrations of definitive study were selected based on the fact that EC50 should be between 10 and 100% of a WSF prepared at 100 mg/L. - Reference substance (positive control):
- yes
- Remarks:
- Potassium dichromate (20 Daphnia/conc. were exposed for a period of 48 h to K2Cr2O7 at the concentrations of 0, 0.1, 0.18, 0.32, 0.56, 1.0 and 1.8 mg/L

- Details on results:
- Following 48 h of exposure, immobility of 100, 100 and 80% was observed in the treatment levels 22, 46 and 100% WSF of 100 mg/L loading rate respectively. For details please refer to 'Table 2' in the section 'Any other information on results'.
- Results with reference substance (positive control):
- - Results with reference substance valid: Yes
- EC50:
The 24h-EC50 was 0.75 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 0.56 and 1.0 mg/L.
The 48h-EC50 was 0.36 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 0.28 and 0.49 mg/L.
These are the results of the most recent reference test conducted with potassium dichromate at the test facility. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The EC50-value was calculated at 24 and 48 h of exposure from the probits of the percentages of affected daphnids and the logarithms of the corresponding test material concentrations using the maximum likelihood estimation method.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the study conditions, the 48 h EC50 of the read across substance was determined to be 3.7 mg/L (95% CI: 3.3-4.4 mg/L). The 48 h NOEC was 2.0 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
A study was conducted to evaluate the acute toxicity of the read across substance, C8-18 and C18-unsatd. MIPA, to Daphnia magna under static conditions according to OECD Guideline 202, in compliance with GLP. The substance was not completely soluble in test medium at the concentrations tested and hence the preparation included a 2 d magnetic stirring period followed by overnight settlement and subsequent collection of the Water Soluble Fraction (WSF). Twenty daphnia per test group (4 vessels, 5 Daphnia/vessel) were exposed at concentrations of 4.6, 10, 22, 46 and 100% of the WSF prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L. The total test period was 48 h. Samples for measurement of Total Organic Carbon (TOC) in solution were taken at the start and the end of the test period. The average exposure concentrations were calculated to correspond to 2.0, 4.8, 10 and 21 mg/L for the test groups containing 10, 22, 46 and 100% WSF, respectively. Under the study conditions, the 48 h EC50 was determined to be 3.7 mg/L (95% CI: 3.3-4.4 mg/L). The 48 h NOEC was 2.0 mg/L (Migchielsen, 2010). Based on the results of the read across study, the test substance is also expected to have similar toxicity to invertebrates.
