- Analytical monitoring:

- Details on sampling:
- Subsamples were collected from the control, the lowest and the highest test dilutions prior to test commencement and at test termination for chemical analysis. All samples were stored at 4°C in the dark prior to being transported to The Shepherd Color Company for analysis.
Subsamples of the test solutions were sent to The Shepherd Color Company for chemical analysis of the definitive test solutions for confirmation of exposure
concentrations. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- The test sample was considered poorly water soluble. Accordingly, preparation of the test solutions followed OECD's Guidance Document on Aquatic Toxicity Testing of Difficult Substances and Mixtures (OECD, 2000). A nominal concentration of 100 mg/L was selected as the maximum concentration of the test item to be tested for all range-finding and definitive tests (OECD, 2006). Furthermore, all nominal test solutions were prepared based on the whole product, without correction for purity.
Range Finding Test Solution Preparation:
To prepare the test solution a 1L solution of the highest concentration (i.e., 100 mg/l) was prepared by adding 100mg of Violet 92 into 1L of moderately hard water freshwater in a glass beaker and stirred at 700 rpm for 1 hour at room temperature. This solution will be allowed to settle for approximately 72 hours. Preparation of the remaining test solutions was completed at this time. A total of 900 ml of the 100 mg/l test solution was decanted for testing leaving the settled solids behind. All lower concentrations of the test item (10, 1, 0.1, 0.01) were prepared by serial dilution.
Definitive Test Solution Preparation:
To prepare the test solution a 1.5L solution of the highest concentration (i.e., 100 mg/l) was prepared by adding 150mg of Violet 92 into 1.5L of moderately hard water freshwater in a glass beaker and stirred at 700 rpm for 1 hour at room temperature. This solution will be allowed to settle for approximately 72 hours. Preparation of the remaining test solutions was completed at this time. A total of 1,400 ml of the 100 mg/l test solution was decanted for testing leaving the settled solids behind. All lower concentrations of the test item (100, 50, 25, 12.5, 6.25) were prepared by serial dilution.
The dilution water was moderately hard freshwater with the following composition:
- 64.8 mg/L Magnesium sulfate (anhydrous)
- 110 mg/L Sodium bicarbonate
- 4.36 mg/L Potassium chloride
- 64.8 mg/L Calcium sulfate (dihydrate). - Test organisms (species):

- Basis for effect:

- Details on results:
- The bioassay tests were acceptable tests based on controls and test conditions specified in the methods. The test met all the test validity criteria.
The results indicate that the 48-hour Effective Loading Rate at the 50% level for D. magna was >100 mg/L. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The last toxic response obtained on the reference item Potassium chloride (July 1, 2022) gives an LC50-48h of 0.70 g/L, indicating that the daphnids sensitivity is correct.
- Reported statistics and error estimates:
- For all concentrations and the controls, survival at 24 and 48 hours were calculated for each replicate and then averaged. Due to the low water solubility of the test item, test results will be reported in term of the Effective Loading Rate (EL50), referring to the loading rate that causes an adverse effect (in this case, immobility in 50% of the exposed population) within a specified period (i.e., 24, 48 hours).
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The results obtained for the test item on the toxicological endpoint 'immobilisation' give an EL50 (48h) > 100 mg/L based on nominal test item concentrations.
