- - Results with reference substance valid?
Yes
- Relevant effect levels: The 48 hr EC50 (immobilisation) was 1.422 mg/L, within the range of 0.6 – 2.1 mg/L specified in the testing guideline. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- Statistical analysis was carried out using CETIS v 1.8.7.14 software. To calculate the 24 and 48 hours ECx values for immobilisation of Daphnia based on nominal concentrations a 3 Parameter Cumulative log-normal (Probit) test was used. The 24 hours ECx values based on measured concentrations were calculated using a 2 Parameter Log-Gompertz EV test and the 48 hours ECx values were determined using a 2 Parameter Single First Order test.
Data for the highest treatment group of 3.3 mg/L (nominally 10 mg/L) were not included in the calculation of the 48-h EC50 based on geometric mean measured concentrations, as the dose-response inversion in the mean measured concentrations made it impossible to fit a model adequately. The analytical recovery in the highest test concentration (nominal 10 mg/L) sample was 33.3 % of nominal test concentrations, while it was 110.7 % in the next lower test concentration (nominal of 4.5 mg/L). This was considered to be due to the difficulties with analysis of the test item. Additional investigations conducted by the analytical laboratory did not indicate that the analytical recoveries could be improved. The highest treatment group showed a 100% immobilisation while the next lower test concentration exhibited 90% immobilisation, which was in line with the expected response based on the nominal test concentrations. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- In the control, 0% of the daphnids were immobilised at 48 hours; the dissolved oxygen at the end of the test was 8.72 - 8.81 mg/L.
- Conclusions:
- Based on nominal concentrations, the 48-hour EC50 for Daphnia magna, was 2.95 mg/L. Based on geometric mean measured concentrations, the 48-hour EC50 was 2.21 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
A study was performed according to the OECD guideline 202 to assess the effects of the test item, calcium bis[(Z)-N-methyl-N-(1-oxo-9-octadecenyl)aminoacetate], on the immobilisation of Daphnia magna (Cockroft 2019).
Daphnids were exposed to five nominal concentrations of calcium bis[(Z)-N-methyl-N-(1-oxo-9-octadecenyl) aminoacetate], 0.43, 0.94, 2.1, 4.5, 10 mg/L and a control, for 48 hours under static conditions. The test item concentrations were analysed using a LC-MS MRM method and the geometric mean measured concentrations were 0.097, 0.15, 0.81, 5.0 and 3.3 mg/L. As analytical recoveries were outside the range of 100% ± 20% of nominal, study endpoints were expressed in terms of both nominal concentration and geometric mean measured concentrations. The data were statistically analysed with CETIS v1.9.2.7 statistical software package.
All validity criteria for the definitive test were met. Based on nominal concentrations, the 48-hour EC50 to Daphnia magna, was 2.95 mg/L (95% CL: 2.68-3.26 mg/L). Based on geometric mean measured concentrations, the 48-hour EC50 was 2.21 mg/L (95% CL: 1.62-2.89 mg/L).
The study was conducted according to the OECD guideline and is GLP-compliant, therefore is reliable without restrictions and is considered as suitable as a key study for this endpoint.

Additional information
A study was performed according to the OECD guideline 202 to assess the effects of the test item on immobilisation of Daphnia magna (Cockroft 2019). Five daphnids per test vessel were exposed for 48 hours under static conditions. Based on range-finder results, five nominal concentrations were tested, 0.43, 0.94, 2.1, 4.5 and 10 mg/L (corresponding to geometric mean measured concentrations of: 0.097, 0.15, 0.81, 5.0 and 3.3 mg/L). All validity criteria for the definitive test were met. Analytical recoveries were outside the range of 100% ± 20% of nominal, therefore study endpoints were expressed in terms of both nominal concentration and geometric mean measured concentrations.
The 48-hour EC50 for immobilisation of Daphnia magna was 2.95 mg/L based on nominal concentrations, and based on geometric mean measured concentrations, was 2.21 mg/L. The study was conducted according to the OECD guideline and is GLP-compliant, therefore it is reliable without restrictions and is considered as suitable as a key study for this endpoint.
