- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION (especially for difficult test substances)
The test item has a low water solubility and is hydrologically unstable, therefore a degraded solution of the test item was prepared before application based on OECD Series on Testing and Assessment No. 23.
- Method:
Degraded solutions were prepared by directly weighing appropriate test item amounts in test medium. The stock solutions were stirred in the dark at room temperature for 24 h. At the highest concentration (100 mg/L) not the entire test item went into solution as particles were observed floating at the surface of the solution and at the bottom of the glass vessel. Subsequently the undissolved test item was allowed to sediment and/or float for a period until the phases had separated. After the settling of 30 minutes the necessary volumes for the test were withdrawn via a Teflon tube from the medium level of the degraded stock solutions. Algae were added to each solution individually, resulting in target cell densities of 0.5 × 104 cells per mL in each solution. Approximately 50 mL of the prepared solutions were transferred to each test vessel. - Test organisms (species):

TEST CONCENTRATIONS
- Spacing factor for test concentrations: 3.19
- Range finding study
- Test concentrations: 100, 10, 3.3, 1.1 and control
- Results used to determine the conditions for the definitive study:
Two non-GLP range-finding tests were performed comparing the effects of non-degraded (treated with 5 minutes of ultrasonication) and degraded solutions (treated with 24 hours of stirring in the dark at room temperature) to choose an appropriate application design. In the range finding test using ultrasonication for 5 minutes the inhibition of yield was 19.4 % and the inhibition of growth rate was 5.2 % at 100 mg/L test item concentration. In the range finding test using degraded solutions the inhibition of yield was 25.6 % and the inhibition of growth rate was 5.7 % at 100 mg/L test item concentration. The results of both non-GLP range-finding tests were similar. Therefore, for the main test 24h stirring was selected as pre-treatment. - Reference substance (positive control):

- Conclusions:
- The toxicity of ODPA to algae has been assessed in a OECD 201 study. At the nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L toxicity was observed. The tested concentrations < 100 mg/L did not show toxicity. The EC50 (growth rate) was derived to be 55.9 mg/L nominal or 35.1 mg/L according to TOC measurement.
- Executive summary:
The toxicity of ODPA to algae has been assessed in a OECD 201 study. Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata algae were exposed 72h to ODPA in nominal test concentrations of 0, 0.954, 3.05, 9.77, 31.3 and 100 mg/L.
Since the substance is hydrolytically unstable, aged solutions were used for the tests, i.e. substance dissolved and stirred for 24h in the dark. Verification of test concentrations was done by TOC measurement. The substance was found to be between 47 and 79 % of the nominal test concentration.
At the nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L toxicity was observed. The tested concentrations < 100 mg/L did not show toxicity. The EC50 (growth rate and yield) was derived to be 55.9 mg/L nominal or 35.1 mg/L according to TOC measurement (geometric mean). The NOEC is 31.3 mg/L nominal and 15.3 mg/L according to TOC measurement (geometric mean). EC10 values were not determined since only the 2 highest test item concentrations (31.1 and 100 mg/L, nominal) were within the concentration-response relation after 72h.

Description of key information
There is one key study for the toxicity of ODPA to algae. This is a OECD 201 study in which Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata algae were exposed 72h to ODPA in nominal test concentrations of 0, 0.954, 3.05, 9.77, 31.3 and 100 mg/L.
Since the substance is hydrolytically unstable, aged solutions were used for the tests, i.e. substance dissolved and stirred for 24h in the dark. Verification of test concentrations was done by TOC measurement. The substance was found to be between 47 and 79 % of the nominal test concentration.
At the nominal test concentration of 100 mg/L toxicity was observed. The tested concentrations < 100 mg/L did not show toxicity. The EC50 (growth rate and yield) was derived to be 55.9 mg/L nominal or 35.1 mg/L according to TOC measurement (geometric mean). The NOEC is 31.3 mg/L nominal and 15.3 mg/L according to TOC measurement (geometric mean). EC10 values were not determined since only the 2 highest test item concentrations (31.1 and 100 mg/L, nominal) were within the concentration-response relation after 72h.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 35.1 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 15.3 mg/L
Additional information
A QSAR has also been generated as supporting information. The corresponding EC50 was 15.1 mg/L, which is in the same order of magnitude of the experimentally observed EC50 values.
