Mean measured concentrations of the test substance demonstrated that a concentration gradient (~ 106% of nominal) was maintained throughout the 96 hour test and defined the exposure concentration range (based on mean measured concentrations) as 14 to 112 mg/L (see table 1). Analysis of quality control samples resulted in measured concentrations in the range of 103 to 116% of the nominal fortified values confirming the appropriate precision and quality control was maintained. The theoretical LOD in this study was <0.0376 µg/L for a 100-mL sample. Mean measured concentrations were used for the calculation and reporting of results.

The median lethal concentration (LC50) was defined as the concentration resulting in 50% mortality of the fish in the time period specified. Since no deaths occurred among fish exposed to the test substance, the LC50 values were empirically estimated. The NOEC (No Observed Effect Concentration, defined as the highest tested concentration which did not produce an adverse effect when compared to the control) was also determined. No mortality or symptoms of toxicity were observed in the controls. The mortality data and estimated LC50 values are shown in the table 2.

- Remarks:
- See Validity criteria under 'Any other information on results incl. tables'.
- Conclusions:
- In a 96-h toxicity study on sheepshead minnow without the use of a standard guideline but followed internal protocol, the 96-h LC50 value was determined to be > 112 mg/L (the highest concentration tested), based on mean measured concentrations.
- Executive summary:
The acute toxicity of the test item on sheepshead minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus) was investigated in a static study without the use of a standard guideline, but followed internal protocol. The study was conducted under GLP. Fish were exposed to the test item at nominal concentrations of 0 (blank control), 13, 22, 36, 60 and 100 mg/L (mean measured concentrations : < 5.1, 14, 25, 35, 58 and 112 mg/L, respectively) for 96 hours. Ten fish were introduced into 18.9 L glass aquaria containing 15 L of test solution per treatment and control (no replicates). To check the concentrations of the test item, water samples were taken at 0 and 96 hours and analysed by using HPLC. The test conditions were as follows: temperature 21 - 22 °C, pH 7.3 - 7.9, dissolved oxygen 5.5 - 8.2 mg/L (equivalent to 74 - 111 % of air saturation), salinity of 31‰ and a daily photoperiod of 16 hours with a light intensity of 25 foot candles. Observations for mortalities and symptoms of toxicity were made at 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours.
No mortalities were observed in any of the treatments. Effects on swimming behaviour were observed in some or all of the fish exposed to mean measured concentrations of 25 mg/L and higher after 48 hours of exposure. However, there were no symptoms observed at these treatments during the remainder of the test. There were no mortalities or symptoms of toxicity observed in the blank control. Based on mean measured concentrations, the 96-hour LC50 was determined to be > 112 mg/L, the highest concentration tested.

EFFECT PARAMETERS MEASURED:
Fish were observed at 0, 3, 6, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours after test start. If present, fish were considered dead if there was no visible movement (e.g. gill movement), and if touching of the caudal peduncle produced no reaction. Records were made on visible abnormalities such as: loss of equilibrium, swimming behaviour, respiratory function, pigmentation and all other observed events, if present. - Reference substance (positive control):

Validity criteria
According to the OECD 203 (1992), EC-method C.1 (92/69/EEC) and JMAFF Test Guidelines 2-7-1-1 (2000) this study can be regarded as valid, since
• the mortality in the control did not exceed one fish at the end of the test.
• the dissolved oxygen concentration was at least 60 % of the air saturation value throughout the test.- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Remarks:
- See validity criteria in ‘Any other information on results incl. tables’
- Conclusions:
- In a 96-h toxicity study on Rainbow trout following OECD TG 203, OPPTS 850.1075, EC-Method C.1 and JMAFF 2-7-1-1 guidelines, the 96-h LC50 value was determined to be > 100 mg/L (the highest concentration tested), based on nominal concentrations.
- Executive summary:
The toxicity of the test item on Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) was investigated in a static study following OECD TG 203, OPPTS 850.1075, EC-Method C.1 and JMAFF 2-7-1-1 test guidelines, and in compliance with GLP principles. Fish were exposed in a limit test to the test substance at concentrations of 0 (blank control) and 100 mg/L (measured concentrations day 0: ND, 114 mg/L, respectively; Measured concentrations day 2: ND, 109 mg/L, respectively; Measured concentrations day 4: ND, 107 mg/L, respectively) for 96 hours. Seven fish were introduced per treatment and control without the use of replicates. To check the concentrations of the test item, water samples were taken at 0, 48 and 96 hours and analysed by using HPLC-MS/MS. The test conditions were as follows: temperature 16.1 - 16.9 °C, pH 7.94 - 8.36 and dissolved oxygen ≥ 94 % of air saturation. Observations of mortality and abnormalities were made at 0, 3, 6, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours after the addition of the organisms to the test vessels.
After 96 hours of exposure, no mortality or abnormalities of fish were observed in the control and the treatment. Based on the findings, the 96-h LC50 of the test item was determined to be > 100 mg/L (the highest concentration tested), based on nominal concentrations.

Additional information
Studies required in Annex VII and some other studies required for higher tonnage are available. All the studies available have been included in the dossier for this endpoint. The lowest effect value of these studies was considered in the aquatic toxicity classification and PBT assessment. Therefore, all studies are summarized below.
There are six studies available for this endpoint, five on freshwater species and one on marine water species. Five studies were performed according to standard guidelines. Only two of the six studies were performed under GLP. All studies were performed under static conditions and determined the same effect value of the substance on the test fish.
Freshwater: Oncorhynchus mykiss was exposed in a limit test to the test substance at concentrations of 0 (blank control) and 100 mg/L (measured concentrations day 0: ND, 114 mg/L, respectively; Measured concentrations day 2: ND, 109 mg/L, respectively; Measured concentrations day 4: ND, 107 mg/L, respectively) for 96 hours. The 96-h LC50 of the test item was determined to be > 100 mg/L (the highest concentration tested), based on nominal concentrations (Wiech 2012). A second study with Oncorhynchus mykiss, one study with Cyprinus carpio, one study with Lepomis macrochirus, and one study with Ictalurus punctatus were exposed to the test item at nominal concentrations of 10, 18, 32, 58 and 100 mg/L. Measured concentrations were in agreement with nominal and remained stable during the exposure period. The 96-h LC50 was determined to be > 100 mg/L for all four species (Rufli 1984a, 1984b, 1984c and 1984d). None of the 4 studies were conducted according to GLP and a high vehicle concentration (553 mg/L DMSO) was used.
Marine water: Cyprinodon variegatus was exposed to the test item at nominal concentrations of 0 (blank control), 13, 22, 36, 60 and 100 mg/L (mean measured concentrations : < 5.1, 14, 25, 35, 58 and 112 mg/L, respectively) for 96 hours. Based on mean measured concentrations, the 96-hour LC50 was determined to be > 112 mg/L, the highest concentration tested (Surprenant 1987).
One study of a major degradation product on Oncorhynchus mykiss is also included. Based on mean measured concentrations, the 96h LC50 was determined to be > 200 mg/L (Rufli 1984e) showing the lower toxicity to fish of this metabolite.
