The measured concentration of AE F122006 indicated that solubility was achieved at test initiation, however due to rapid hydrolysis of AE F122006, the concentration was not detected at test termination. All toxicity values were calculated based on the analyzed concentration of the test substance added to the test water at test initiation. - Details on test conditions:

Description of key information
EC50 (72 h): > 1.26 mg/L (initial measured, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, OECD 201)
NOEC (72 h): ≥ 1.26 mg/L (initial measured, Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata, OECD 201)
No acute toxic effects were observed at the maximum solubility of the test substance. However, the test substance degraded completely during the course of the study.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
Additional information
One short term limit test with Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata according to OECD 201 and GLP is available. In the static test system, the concentration of the test item was shown to be 1.26 mg/L at test start (maximum solubility under the tested conditions) and below the detection limit of 0.026 mg/L at test end after 96 h. Under these conditions, no toxic effect on P. subcapitata was observed. It can be concluded that the substance hydrolyses during the study period and the algae were also exposed to the hydrolysis products.
