- Version / remarks:

- GLP compliance:

- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- Samples for possible analysis were taken from all test concentrations and the control according to the schedule below. In addition, the filter containing the undissolved residue was kept for possible analysis.
- Schedule:
Frequency at t=0 h and t=48 h
Volume 2.0 mL from the approximate centre of the test vessels
Storage Samples were stored in a freezer (≤ -15 °C) until analysis at the analytical laboratory of the Test Facility.
At the end of the exposure period, the replicates were pooled at each concentration before sampling.
Additionally, reserve samples of 2.0 mL were taken for possible analysis. If not used, these samples were stored in a freezer (≤ -15 °C) for a maximum of three months after delivery of the draft report, pending on the decision of the sponsor for additional analysis. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- The test material was not completely soluble in test medium at the loading rates initially tested. No correction was made for the purity/composition of the test material.
Preparation of test solutions started with loading rates individually prepared ranging between 1.0 and 100 mg/L. A 3-day period of magnetic stirring was applied to ensure maximum dissolution of the test material in medium. Thereafter, the aqueous Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were collected by means of filtration through a 0.45 µm membrane filter (RC55, Whatman) and used as test concentrations. All test solutions were clear and colourless at the end of the preparation procedure.
Any residual volumes were discarded. - Test organisms (species):
- Daphnia magna

- MEASURED CONCENTRATIONS
Samples taken from the control and all test concentrations were analysed. The test material was not detected in any of the samples. Consequently, the filter residue was analysed. The result demonstrated the presence of the test material during preparation of the test solutions.
IMMOBILITY
No immobility was observed in the control and at any of the concentrations tested. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The 48h-EL50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test material was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded a loading rate of 100 mg/L.
- Executive summary:
The toxicity of the test material to aquatic invertebrates was investigated in a study which was conducted in accordance with the standardised guideline OECD 202, under GLP conditions.
The test material was not completely soluble in test medium at the loading rates initially prepared.
A combined limit/range-finding test was performed. Water Accommodated Fractions (WAFs) were individually prepared at loading rates of 1.0, 10 and 100 mg/L and used as test concentrations.
Twenty daphnids per group (5 per replicate, quadruplicate) were exposed to an untreated control and to a WAF prepared at a loading rate of 100 mg/L, in a limit test. In addition ten daphnids per group (5 per replicate, duplicate) were exposed to WAFs prepared at loading rates of 1.0 and 10 mg/L in the combined range-finding test. The total exposure period was 48 hours and samples for analytical confirmation of exposure concentrations were taken at the start and at the end of the test.
No immobility was observed in the control and at any of the concentrations tested.
Samples taken from the control and all test concentrations were analysed. The test material was not detected in any of the samples. Consequently, the filter residue was analysed. The result demonstrated the presence of the test material during preparation of the test solutions.
In conclusion, the 48h-EL50 for Daphnia magna exposed to the test material was beyond the range of concentrations tested, i.e. exceeded a loading rate of 100 mg/L.
The study met the acceptability criteria prescribed by the study plan and was considered valid.
