Additional information
Experimental study of the test chemical and various supporting weight of evidence studies for its read across chemical were reviewed for toxicity to micro-organisms end point which are summarized as below:
In an experimental study from peer reviewed journal (Sónia P. M. Ventura et. al., 2016), toxicity toxicity to marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri study was carried out for 30 mins. The standard Microtox toxicity test liquid-phase assay was used to evaluate the inhibition of the marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri bioluminescence at 15 °C and pH 7.0. The test was performed by measuring the bacteria luminescence variation when exposed to test chemical concentrations, with successive dilutions by a factor of 2 (from 0.32 to 81.9%), in which 100% of the compound corresponds to a known concentration (this concentration varies with the compound tested) of a stock solution, in which 0% corresponds to the control. After 5, 15, and 30 minutes of exposure to the compound, the light output of the luminescent bacteria was measured and compared with the light output of a blank control. The toxicity was evaluated, a 50% reduction in luminescence, corresponding to the EC50, and the respective 95% confidence intervals were computed using the Microtox Omni™ Software version 4.3.0.1. Additional statistical analysis, namely the respective 95% confidence intervals, which were estimated for each compound by non-linear regression, using the least squares method to fit the data to the logistic equation, was performed by the STATISTICA software, version 8.0. On the basis of the inhibition bioluminescence response of the marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri, median effective concentration (EC50) value after 5, 15 and 30 min was determined to be 15.6 mg/l (95% C. I. = 14.8 to 16.5 mg/l), 15.4 mg/l (95% C. I. = 14.3 to 16.4 mg/l) and 14.9 mg/l (95% C. I. = 14.2 to 15.6 mg/l), respectively.
In a supporting weight of evidence study, toxicity to Pseudomonas putida study (from peer reviewed journal (1980), handbook and secondary source) was carried out for 16 hr. The study was based on the effects of the test chemical on Pseudomonas putida at a temperature of 25°C. Test chemical of known concentration was prepared in sterile double distilled water. Composition of test medium contains sodium nitrate (1.06 g), dipotassium hydrogen phosphate (0.6 g), magnesium sulphate (0.2 g), D (+) glucose (10 g), Difco bacto agar (18 g), ferrous sulphate (0.001 g), and 1.5 ml trace element solution. Pseudomonas putida was used as a test organism. Keep stock cultures of the test strain, Pseudomonas putida, on the nutrient for stock and preliminary cultures in agar slant tubes. Prepare, for onward culturing of the test strain, new stock cultures at intervals of 1 week each. Incubate the inoculated stock cultures at 25"C for 24 h and keep in stock. stock. If needed, prepare preliminary cultures from stock cultures on the above mentioned nutrient medium in agar slant tubes and incubate at 25°C for 24 h. Then, wash off the cell material with sterile saline. Determine the extinction of the monochromatic radiation at 436nm for a 10 mm layer of the bacterial suspension by photoelectric measurement. Erlenmeyer flask of 300 ml stoppered with cottoned lined plastic caps was used for the study. Prepare dilution series in the test vessel. Each of the dilutions contains 1 part v/v of the pollutant solution in 20 to 214 parts v/v of mixture. Prepare the dilution series as follows: the first flask of each series contains 160ml of pollutant solution at the start. Starting from this flask prepare the subsequent dilution stein at a constant dilution ratio by consistently mixing 80ml of preliminary pollutant dilution and 80 ml double distilled water. Consequently, each flask contains 80 ml of culture liquid at the start. Make up each flask of the three dilution series to beinoculatedto 100 ml by adding 5 ml each of stock solution I, 5 ml each of stock solution II and I0 ml each of the prepared bacterial suspension from the preliminary culture having a known adjusted extinction value. Leave both inoculated and non-inoculated dilution series at 25°C for 16 h. After termination of the test period measure the extinction of the monochromatic radiation at 436 nm in a 10-mm layer in the inoculated dilution series. On the basis of the effect of test chemical on growth rate, i.e., multiplication of the test organism Pseudomonas putida, the 16 h EC0 and EC50 value was determined to be 16 and > 16 mg/l.
For the test chemical from peer reviewed journal, toxicity to marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri study was carried out for 30 mins. The standard Microtox toxicity test liquid-phase assay was used to evaluate the inhibition of the marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri bioluminescence at 15 °C and pH 7.0. The test was performed by measuring the bacteria luminescence variation when exposed to test chemical concentrations, with successive dilutions by a factor of 2 (from 0.32 to 81.9%), in which 100% of the compound corresponds to a known concentration (this concentration varies with the compound tested) of a stock solution, in which 0% corresponds to the control. After 5, 15, and 30 minutes of exposure to the compound, the light output of the luminescent bacteria was measured and compared with the light output of a blank control. The toxicity was evaluated, a 50% reduction in luminescence, corresponding to the EC50, and the respective 95% confidence intervals were computed using the Microtox Omni™ Software version 4.3.0.1. Additional statistical analysis, namely the respective 95% confidence intervals, which were estimated for each compound by non-linear regression, using the least squares method to fit the data to the logistic equation, was performed by the STATISTICA software, version 8.0. On the basis of the inhibition bioluminescence response of the marine bacteria Vibrio fischeri, median effective concentration (EC50) value after 5, 15 and 30 min was determined to be 10.4 mg/l (95% C. I. = 9.3 to 11.5 mg/l), 9.66 mg/l (95% C. I. = 8.53 to 10.8 mg/l) and 9.57 mg/l (95% C. I. = 8.31 to 10.8 mg/l), respectively.
On the basis of the experimental studies, the EC50 value of the test chemical on test organism was determined to be ranges from 9.57 to > 16mg/l, respectively.
