Sampling and analysis
- Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- The entire volume of each sample (10 mL) was transferred quantitatively into 20 mL volumetric flasks using acetonitrile. The flasks were filled up to the mark with acetonitrile. If necessary, the solutions were further diluted with 50/50 (v/v) acetonitrile / ISO-medium to obtain concentrations
within the calibration range. Samples taken at 0 and 48 hours.
Test solutions
- Vehicle:
- yes
- Details on test solutions:
- A pretest was performed to examine the solubility of the test substance in the test medium. A concentration of 100 mg/L could not homogeneously be dissolved or dispersed in test medium. Acetone proved to be a suitable solvent. However, the highest concentration which could be dissolved in
acetone was 100 mg/mL . To include a concentration of 100 mg/L in the test an amount of 1 mL/Lof this stock solution was added to the test medium.
Hence, the concentration of solvent was 1 mL/L for all test concentrations instead of the maximum level of 0.1 mL/L as prescribed by the guidelines.
Stock solutions were prepared separately for each individual test concentration at a factor of 1000 higher than the final test concentrations. All final test solutions were clear without precipitation and ranged from yellow to colourless.
Based on the results of the range-finding test, a range of nominal concentrations from 10 to 180 mg/L increasing by a factor of 1.8.
Controls: Test medium without test substance or other additives (0mg/L), and one control containing test medium with the additive used in the
treatment of the stock solutions (i.e. acetone 1 mL/L).

Results and discussion
Effect concentrations
- Duration:
- 48 h
- Dose descriptor:
- EC50
- Effect conc.:
- 69.4 mg/L
- Nominal / measured:
- nominal
- Conc. based on:
- test mat.
- Basis for effect:
- mobility
- Remarks on result:
- other: 95% 60.3-86.6 mg/L
- Details on results:
- The responses recorded in this test allowed for reliable determination of an EC50. The responses recorded after 24 hours of exposure were in
agreement with the results of the range-finding test. The responses at 100 mg/L recorded at the end of the test were higher than expected based on
the results of the range-finding test.
Under the conditions of the present study with the test item, the 24h-EC50 for daphnids exceeded the highest concentration tested, being 180 mg/L.
The 48h-EC50 was 69 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 60 and 87 mg/L. - Results with reference substance (positive control):
- The reference substance potassium dichromate was tested using daphnia from the same culture as those used with the test item.
Concentrations: 0.10, 0.18, 0.32, 0.56, 1.0 and 1.8 mg/L in ISO-medium. Control: ISO-medium without test substance.
The 24h-EC50 was 0.90 mg/L with 95% fiducial limits of 0.75 - 1.2 mg/L
The 48h-EC50 was 0.52 mg/L with 95% fiducial limits of 0.46 - 0.65 mg/L.
The actual responses in this reference test were within the ranges of the expected responses at the different concentrations. Hence, the sensitivity
of this batch of D. magna was in agreement with the historical data collected. - Reported statistics and error estimates:
- The EC50-value was calculated at 48 hours of exposure from the probits of the percentages of affected daphnia and the logarithms of the corresponding test substance concentrations using the maximum likelihood estimation method (Finney, D.J., 1971: Probit analysis, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, U.K., 3rd edition).
Any other information on results incl. tables
No daphnids became immobilized or trapped at the surface of the water in either the blank- or the solvent-controls. Hence, the acetone concentration of 1 ml/L had no effect on the condition of the daphnids exposed in the treated solutions. The analytical program showed that the actual test concentrations were stable during the exposure period and could be maintained at 80 % of the initial concentration. Further, all test conditions remained within the ranges prescribed by the protocol.

Applicant's summary and conclusion
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the present study with the test item, the 24h-EC50 for daphnids exceeded the highest concentration tested, being 180 mg/L.
The 48h-EC50 was 69 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 60 and 87 mg/L. - Executive summary:
After a range-finding test, a final test was performed with Daphnia exposed for a maximum of 48 hours to a range of nominal concentrations from 10 to 180 mg/L. The test was performed in duplicate with 10 daphnia per vessel. Acetone was used as a presolvent in the stock solutions. Due to the limited solubility of the test substance in acetone, the concentration of this solvent in the test solutions was 1 mL/L instead of 0.1 mL/L as prescribed by the guidelines. Samples for analysis were taken at the start and the end of the final test.
Analysis of the samples taken during the final test showed that the measured concentrations were in agreement with nominal. No daphnia became immobilised or trapped at the surface in the solvent-controls. Hence, the acetone concentration of 1 mL/L had no effect on the condition of the daphnids exposed in the treated solutions.
Under the conditions of the present study with the test item, the 24h-EC50 for daphnids exceeded the highest concentration tested, being 180 mg/L. The 48h-EC50 was 69 mg/L with a 95% confidence interval between 60 and 87 mg/L.
