- Executive summary:
This study was performed according to OECD Guideline 202 and GLP, to assess the 48 h-acute toxicity of test item DELTA-3-CARENE to Daphnia magna, under static conditions.
Following a preliminary range-finding test, twenty daphnids (four replicates, five daphnids per replicate) were exposed to an aqueous solution of the test item at the required nominal test concentrations 1.0, 1.1, 1.3, 1.5, 1.7 and 2.0 mg/L. The immobility of the daphnids was determined in a semi-static 48 h test by visual observation after 24 and 48 h. The concentrations of the test item were determined by chemical analyses at the start (t=0 h), at t=24 h (new and old solutions) and at the end of the test (t=48 h).
The analytical results showed that test item concentrations were stable during the test period (within or close to ± 20% of the initial concentration), except at the nominal test concentration of 1.5 mg/L with test substance losses ca. 30% on both days of the study. Moreover, actual concentrations were lower than their corresponding nominal values. Thus, the results were expressed in terms of geometric means of the exposure concentrations: 0.66, 0.72, 0.91, 0.92, 1.20 and 1.46 mg/L.
After 24 h of exposure, immobilisations were 0% at 0.66 mg/L, 5% at 0.72 mg/L, 20% at 0.91 mg/L, 30% at 0.92 mg/L, 40% at 1.20 mg/L and 80% at 1.46 mg/L. After 48 h of exposure, immobilisations were 5% at 0.66 mg/L, 35% at 0.72 mg/L, 60% at 0.91 mg/L, and 100% at 0.92, 1.20 and 1.46 mg/L.
Therefore, the 48 h-EC50 for DELTA-3-CARENE to Daphnia magna is 0.80 mg/L with 95% confidence limits of 0.644-0.950 mg/L.

Validity criteria of the study:
Controls:In the control, no daphnids became immobilised nor trapped at the surface of the water nor showed signs of stress.
Dissolved [O2]:The dissolved oxygen concentration at the end of the test was ≥ 60% of the air-saturation value in controls and test vessels.
Thus the validity criteria have been fulfilled in the present study.

Additional information
One reliable study is available for the substance itself and is selected as key study. The toxicity of delta-3 -carene to freshwater Daphnia magna was studied according to OECD 202 and GLP. Daphnids were exposed to substance at nominal test concentrations of 1.0, 1.1, 1.3, 1.5, 1.7 and 2.0 mg/L over a test period of 48 hours.
Concentrations were analytically verified at the start and daily until the end of the test (old and new test media). The concentration of the test item was not satisfactorily maintained within ± 20% of the initial concentration throughout the test. Thus, the endpoint was based on the geometric means of the measured concentrations. The 48h-EC50 was determined to be 0.80 mg/L.
The 48h-EC50 is valid for key value for chemical safety assessment and is supported by QSAR results.
