- Details on test solutions:
- The test was carried out using test solutions prepared individually. The test solutions (for fresh media at t=0 h, t=24 h, t=48 h and t=72 h) were prepared under closed conditions and by slow-stirring. The mixing vessels were cylindrical glass bottles sealed with screw caps and fitted with a drain port near the bottom for drawing off the test solutions. The volume of each mixing vessel was approximately 5 L. A magnetic stirring bar was placed in each vessel and test water was added. Then an appropriate amount of test item was weighed on a weighing boat (for each test solution preparation) that afterwards was placed above each mixing vessel and rinsed with test water. The mixing vessels were then carefully filled with the remaining volume of test water to obtain 5 L of solution and closed. Mixing was initiated with the vortex in the centre extending to around 10% of the vessel depth from the top to the bottom of the vessel. After approx. 65 hours (test solutions for t =0 h were stirred throughout the weekend) or 24 ± 2 hours (for fresh media at t=24 h, t=48 h and t=72 h) of gentle stirring in the dark at room temperature, the contents of the vessels were allowed to stand undisturbed for at least 1 hour before use. The first 100 mL were discarded via the drain port. Then the test solutions were directly added into test vessels that were closed immediately after introduction of fish.

- Observations on body length and weight: Ten fish from the test batch were measured at the end of the test. Their average length (0.81 cm) was slightly below the recommended length range given in the test guideline (1-2 cm). This was probably due, according to the fish supplier, to their time spent in polyculture being shorter than usual (5 to 10 days post-fertilisation (dpf), compared to 5 to 15 dpf in normal time), due to a crash in the rotifer culture, which is the food given to the fry especially during their polyculture. This was considered not to affect the results of the test as no impact on fish/abnormal behaviour was observed in the controls throughout the test. In any case, the fish used in the test were juveniles, as recommended by the test guideline and stated in the study plan.
- Mortality of control: None
- Other adverse effects control: None
- Abnormal responses: See Table 5 below
- Any observations (e.g. precipitation) that might cause a difference between measured and nominal values: No

Analytical results
The results of analysis of the samples taken during the final test are described in the Table 6 of the attached Analytical Report (Appendix IV). Samples taken from all treatments were analysed at the start (t=0h) and every 24 hours thereafter in old and new solutions with surviving fish in order to determine maintenance of actual concentrations of the test item.
The analytical results of this test showed that concentrations of test solutions prepared following the outlined procedures were reproducible. Analyses of samples taken from all test concentrations during the test revealed that test item levels were maintained within or close to 80% (75 to 99%) of the nominal concentrations. The evaluation of the effects on Danio rerio was based on the measured concentrations (geometric means of the analytically confirmed concentrations), as recommended by OECD Guideline 203.
Validity criteria of the study
Controls: No mortality was observed in the control at the end of the test.
Dissolved [O2]: The dissolved oxygen concentration was higher than 60% of the air saturation value throughout the test in all test vessels (see Table 3).
Test substance: Concentrations of the test item were overall stable during the test; results were based on the measured concentrations (geometric means of the analytically confirmed concentrations), as recommended by the test guideline.
Therefore, the present study can be considered valid.

- Executive summary:
Introduction:
A study was performed to assess the acute toxicity of the test item N,N-dimethyldodec-9-enamide to the zebrafish Danio rerio. The method followed was designed to be compliant with OECD TG 203, "Fish Acute Toxicity Test", referenced as Method C.1 of Commission Regulation No. 440/2008 (2) and with the “Guidance document on aqueous-phase aquatic toxicity testing of difficult test chemicals” (OECD No. 23). The measured criterion was the LC50 (Median Lethal Concentration), a statistically derived concentration which is expected to cause death in 50% of test animals within a period of 96 hours.
Methods:
Following a preliminary range-finding test, groups of seven fish were exposed to test solutions prepared individually over 96 hours at the required nominal concentrations 1.0, 1.8, 3.2, 5.6 and 10 mg/L in aquaria closed over the study period with a minimum headspace. The test total duration was 96 hours and test solutions were renewed on a daily basis. The mortality of the fish was determined by visual observation after 3, 6, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours. Samples taken from the control and all test solutions were analysed at the start of the test and every 24 hours thereafter in old and new solutions with surviving fish.
Results:
The analytical results of this test showed that test item levels were overall satisfactory maintained within or close to 80% (75% to 99%) of the nominal concentrations throughout the duration of the test. The evaluation of the effects on Danio rerio was based on the measured concentrations (geometric means of the analytically confirmed concentrations), as recommended by OECD TG 203: 0.86, 1.36, 2.39, 4.24 and 9.90 mg/L. After the 96-hours exposure, mortality was 0% at 0.86 and 1.36 mg/L, 14.3% at 2.39 mg/L and 100% at 4.24 and 9.90 mg/L. Therefore, the highest concentration without effect (= NOEC) was 1.36 mg/L and the lowest concentration with 100% mortality was 4.24 mg/L.
The 24, 48, 72 and 96-hour LC50 values were as follows:
Time (h)
LC50 (mg test item/L)
95% Confidence limits (mg test item/L)
24 & 48 & 72
3.18*
2.39 – 4.24**
96
2.94
2.53 – 3.41
*This value was determined by ToxRat but can also be determined using the geometric mean of the highest concentration causing no mortality and the lowest concentration producing 100% mortality.
**The highest concentration causing no mortality and the lowest concentration producing 100% mortality were used as confidence limits.
Conclusion. The toxic effect of N,N-dimethyldodec-9-enamide to the zebrafish (Danio rerio) was investigated in a closed semi-static test. Under experimental conditions and based upon analytically confirmed concentrations, the 96-hour LC50 value was 2.94 mg/L. The NOEC was 1.36 mg/L.
