- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
Because the test item is very poorly soluble in water, and it was not a single chemical substance, test solutions were prepared using a saturated solution method, WAF method according to the Guidance Document on Aquatic Toxicity Testing of Difficult Substances and Mixtures, OECD No. 23.
Two supersaturated test item stock solutions (nominal loading rates of 100 mg/L) were prepared by dispersing/dissolving the appropriate amount of test item into the test medium (ISO medium) two days before the start of the experiment. These solutions were shaken for about 24 hours at approximately 30°C and then equilibrated for about 24 hours at the test temperature. The non-dissolved test materials were removed by filtration through a fine (0.22 µm) filter to give the 100 % v/v saturated solutions. Stock solution 1 was used as highest test concentration solution, the other test solutions were prepared by appropriate diluting of stock solution 2, just before introduction of the Daphnia (start of the experiment).

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
The immobility or mortality of the Daphnia will be determined by visual observation after 24 and 48 hours. Those animals not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test beaker are considered to be immobile. Also, other visible abnormalities in appearance or behaviour will be recorded. The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility will be determined at 24 and 48 hours.

- Details on results:
- The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility were determined at the 24th and 48th hour (for results, see Table). There were no immobilized animals in the control group. The dissolved oxygen concentration at the end of the test in control and test vessels was more than 3 mg/L. All validity criteria were within acceptable limits and therefore the study can be considered as valid.
The following nominal concentrations were tested: 6.25; 12.5; 25; 50 and 100 mg/l. Concentration of the test item was measured daily during the test.The corresponding calculated geometric mean test item concentrations were: 6.34; 11.97; 22.89; 44.87 and 88.54 mg/L. As the measured concentration deviated notdid not deviate more than 20 per cent from the nominal in all cases, biological results are based on the nominal concentrations. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- For the evaluation of the quality of the Daphnia clone and the experimental conditions, Potassium dichromate is tested at least twice a year to demonstrate satisfactory test conditions. The date of the last study with reference item Potassium dichromate (batch no.: 0769128) is: 09-10 August 2012. The 24h EC50: 0.98 mg/L, (95 % confidence limits: 0.92 – 1.06 mg/L).

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The 24h EC50 value: 135.82 mg/L(with 95 % conf. limits: 103.87–1202.81 mg/L)
The 48h EC50 value: 90.94 mg/L(with 95 % conf. limits: 77.35–108.89 mg/L) - Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of Pentaerythritol, ethoxylated, esters with acrylic acidwas assessed with acute immobilisation test on Daphnia magna, over an exposure period of 48 hours in a semi-static system. Based on the results of the preliminary range-finding test five test concentrations in a geometric series with a separation factor of 2 and one untreated control were tested in the main experiment.The nominal concentrations of the test item used in the main experiment were: 6.25, 12.5, 25,50 and 100 mg/L. Test concentrations were analytically determined daily during the test. As the measured concentration did not deviate more than 20 per cent from the nominal in all cases, biological results are based on the nominal concentrations. Twenty animals, divided into four groups (glass beaker) of five animals each were used for the test and for the control groups.
Under the conditions of this Daphnia magnaacute immobilisation study the calculated and observed endpoints for the effect of Pentaerythritol, ethoxylated, esters with acrylic acidwere the followings:
The 24h EC50value: 135.82 mg/L(with 95 % conf. limits: 103.87–1202.81 mg/L)
The 48h EC50value: 90.94 mg/L(with 95 % conf. limits: 77.35–108.89 mg/L)
The 48h No-Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC): 50 mg/L
The 48h Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC): 100 mg/L
