As recovery rates were not in a range of 80 – 120% of nominal throughout the test, TWM were applied for effect assessment. - Details on test conditions:

Therefore, no statistical test was performed.

- Executive summary:
The influence of tetraammonium decachloro-μ-oxodiruthenate on immobilisation of Daphnia magna was investigated in a GLP-compliant study according to OECD Guideline 202. Daphnids were placed in dilution water containing the test item at nominal concentrations of 5.68, 11.4, 22.7, 45.5, and 100 mg test item/L. Test solutions were analysed for ruthenium using ICP-OES and as measured concentrations were outside 80 – 120% of nominal, time weighted mean measured concentrations of (2.94, 5.9, 12.1, 22.7 and 55.7 mg/L) were used for reporting of results. The test was conducted under semi-static conditions for 48 hours. Effects on immobilisation were determined after 24 and 48 hours.
No significantly increased mortality up to a TWM concentration of 55.7 mg test item/L (highest test concentration, corresponding to 100 mg/L nominal) was detected when compared to the control daphnids The NOEC is ≥ 55.7 mg/L (highest concentration tested) and the EC50 is > 55.7 mg/L, based on time-weighted mean measured test concentrations.
