STABILITY AND STORAGE CONDITIONS OF TEST MATERIAL
The test materials were stored in a refrigerator in our laboratory.
The infrared absorption spectra of the available test substance were measured and confirmed to be consistent with the structure of the test substance. At the end of the test, the infrared absorption spectrum was also measured and compared with the spectrum measured before the start of the test. As a result, there was no change in the spectrum, and the test substance was judged to have been stable during storage. - Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- At the beginning (0 hr) and at the end (72 hrs) of the exposure, 2.0 mL of the test solution was taken from each of the three test containers in each concentration group and mixed. At the beginning (0 hr) and the end (72 hr), 2.0 mL of the test solution was taken from each of the three test containers and mixed. 0.75 mL of the test solution was used as the analysis sample at the beginning, and 0.75 mL of the supernatant liquid was used as the analysis sample at the end after centrifugation of the algae (3000 rpm, 10 min).
An equal volume of acetonitrile was added to each analysis sample, and after mixing, the samples were analyzed by HPLC. The concentration of test substance in each test solution was determined from the ratio of the peak area of the standard solution.
STABILITY OF THE TEST CHEMICAL SOLUTIONS:
The concentration of TBBS at the end of the exposure period was between 19 and 90 % of the nominal value at the start of study.
Geometric mean measured values were used for calculation of the growth inhibition concentration. - Vehicle:

- Details on results:
- In the original study (MITI 1997) the effect concentrations were determined based on the nominal concentrations. In the OECD SIDS the geometric mean of the test concentrations over 72 h was calculated to be: control, vehicle control, 0.0041, 0.007, 0.011, 0.023, 0.039, 0.069, 0.11 mg/L. Based on these measured concentrations, the effect concentrations were determined to be ErC50 = 0.071 mg/L and NOECr = 0.023 mg/L. The NOECr in the OECD SIDS was determined based on the exposure phase 24 - 72h. The raw data was reevaluated to validate that the NOECr will also be 0.023 mg/L over the total exposure of 0 - 72h, which was confirmed.
- Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- The toxicity to aquatic plants e.g. algae (Selenastrum capricornutum) of TBBS was determined as growth rate with an ErC50 of 0.071 mg/L after a period of 72 hours. A NOECr of 0.023 mg/L was calculated.
- Executive summary:
The toxicity to aquatic plants e.g. algae (Selenastrum capricornutum) of TBBS was determined According to the OECD guideline 201 "Algae, Growth Inhibition Test". In the original study the effect values have been determined based on the nominal concentrations. In the OECD SIDS on the substance, the effect values were reevaluated based on the geometric mean concentration over the total study duration 0 - 72h. The growth rate was calculated to be ErC50 = 0.071 mg/L after a period of 72 hours. A NOECr of 0.023 mg/L was determined.

Description of key information
The toxicity to aquatic plants e.g. algae (Selenastrum capricornutum) of TBBS was determined as growth rate based on geom. mean measured concentrations with an ErC50 of 0.071 mg/L after a period of 72 hours. A NOECr of 0.023 mg/L was calculated.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- EC50 for freshwater algae:
- 0.071 mg/L
- EC10 or NOEC for freshwater algae:
- 0.023 mg/L
Additional information
Due to fast hydrolysis of TBBS the observed effect is most probably a combined effect from both, TBBS and MBT. Thus, the value determined on TBBS was chosen as key study. The most sensitive value in an aquatic system was the NOEC for TBBS on algae, and hence it was used for PNEC derivation.
