- Executive summary:
Method
The toxicity to aquatic plants of the substance has been conducted according to the OECD 221 and to the EU Method C.26 on Lemna Minor plants over a period of 7 days. The test was performed at nominal concentrations of 11.4, 114 and 1140 mg/l of the item, corresponding to 10, 100 and 1000 mg/l of the active ingredient.
Observation
With respect to growth rate inhibition for the endpoint frond numbers, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 19 % at 100 mg/l and 75 % at 1000 mg/l. No significant effects were observed at 10 mg/l, as determined by Dunnet’s test. With respect to yield inhibition for the endpoint frond numbers, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 18 % at 10 mg/l, 41 % at 100 mg/l and 92 % at 1000 mg/l. Moreover with respect to growth rate inhibition for the endpoint dry weight, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 20 % at 100 mg/l and 67 % at 1000 mg/l. No significant effects were observed at 10 mg/l, as determined by Dunnet’s test. With respect to yield inhibition for the endpoint dry weight, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 22 % at 10 mg/l, 44 % at 100 mg/l and 90 % at 1000 mg/l.
Results
Based on these data the median effect concentrations of the substance to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (ErC50) for the endpoint frond numbers and dry weight were estimated to be 100–1000 mg/l nominal (NOErC = ca. 10 mg/l).
Moreover the median effect concentrations of the substance to Lemna minor with respect to yield (EyC50) for the endpoint frond numbers and dry weight were estimated to be about 100 mg/l nominal concentration (NOEyC < 10 mg/l).

Additional information
The inhibitory effects based on the average specific growth rate and the yield (absolute increase in plant size) to the duckweed Lemna minor was
investigated over a period of 7 days.
The test was performed at nominal concentrations of 11.4, 114 and 1140 mg/l of test substance, corresponding to 10, 100 and 1000 mg/l of the active ingredient (AI).
No chemical analysis of the test concentrations was conducted. The determination of the effect concentrations was based on the nominal concentrations of the active ingredient assuming the test item to be stable in medium for the whole test period.
For the endpoint frond number and with respect to growth rate inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 19 % at 100 mg/l and 75 % at 1000 mg/l. No significant effects were observed at 10 mg/l, as determined by Dunnet’s test.
For the endpoint frond number and with respect to yield inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 18 % at 10 mg/l, 41 % at 100 mg/l and 92 % at 1000 mg/l.
Based on these data the median effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (ErC50) and to yield (EyC50) for the endpoint frond
number was estimated to be 100–1000 and about 100 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively.
The no-observed-effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (NOErC) and yield (NOEyC) for the endpoint frond number were 10
and <10 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively, as determined by Dunnett's test.
For the endpoint dry weight and with respect to growth rate inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 20 % at 100 mg/l and 67 % at 1000 mg/l. No significant effects were observed at 10 mg/l, as determined by Dunnet’s test.
For the endpoint dry weight and with respect to yield inhibition, the following effects as compared to the untreated controls were observed: 22 % at 10 mg/l, 44 % at 100 mg/l and 90 % at 1000 mg/l.
Based on these data the median effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (ErC50) and to yield (EyC50) for the endpoint dry
weight was estimated to be about 100 – 1000 and about 100 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively.
The no-observed-effect concentrations to Lemna minor with respect to growth rate (NOErC) and yield (NOEyC) for the endpoint dry weight were 10 and <10 mg/l nominal concentration, respectively, as determined by Dunnett's test.
