EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED (with observation intervals if applicable) :
- Determination of cell concentrations: fluorimeter

- Other: Microscopic evaluation of the cells at the start and the end of the incubation period was carried out. The cells were checked for unusual cell shapes, colour differences, differences in chloroplast morphology, flocculation, adherence of algae to test containers and agglutination of algae cells.

- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The NOEC / LOEC was determined by calculation of statistical significant differences of growth rate and yield using Dunnett’s Method. A Shapiro-Wilk’s Normality test and a Brown-Forsythe’s Equal Variance test were done first. P-values for both Normality
and Equal Variance tests are 0.05. The α -value (acceptable probability of incorrectly concluding that there is a difference) is α = 0.01.
The ECx-value of yield inhibition after 72 hours was calculated by sigmoidal dose-response regression.

- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- In this study, (5Z)-5-(2-methylpropylidene)imidazolidine-2,4-dione (Z-IBH) was found to inhibit the growth of the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata after 72 hours with the following effect values (based on the nominal test item concentrations): The EC50-values for inhibition of growth rate (ErC50) and yield (EyC50) after 72 hours were > 250 mg/L and 125 (109 -149) mg/L, respectively. The NOEC-values for both inhibition of growth rate and yield after 72 hours were 31.3 mg/L.
