- PREPARATION AND APPLICATION OF TEST SOLUTION
- Method: Test solutions with a concentration of 1.0. 10 and 100 mg/L were prepared seperately. After a 10 minutes treatment with ultrasonic waves to accelerate the disolving of the test substance in the test medium, the test solutions were clear and colourless but the 10 and 100 mg/L concentrations contained a layer of foam. After the fam had disappeared from the highest test concentrations a ten-fold dilution was prepared from the 1.0 mg/L concentration. The final test solutions were clear and colourless
Final: Test concentrations prepared daily from 46 mg/L stock solution. 10-20 minutes magnetic stirring used to accelerate disolving of the test substance in the test media. Layer of foam dissolved in test medium by use of air pressure.

- Conclusions:
- Under the conditions of the study, the test material did not induce acute immobilisation at a nominal concentration of 4.6 mg/L (NOEC) after 48 h.
The 48 h EC50 was 7.9 mg/L based on nominal concentrations (95% confidence limits of 7.2 - 9.3 mg/L). - Executive summary:
In a semi-static 48-hour acute immobilisation study in Daphnia performed in accordance with ISO 6341, OECD No 202 and EU Method C2 the test material was dosed at nominal concentrations of 1.0, 2.2, 4.6, 10. 22 and 46 mg/L to 20 Daphnia/group. The dose concentrations were chosen using a range finding study. A blank control was run in conjunction with the final test. Results of a positive control study on potassium dichromate were appended to the study to confirm sensitivity of the test system.
Analysis of samples taken at the start and 24 hours of exposure of the freshly prepared test solutions showed that measured concentrations were in agreement with nominal. Therefore EC50 and NOEC values were based on nominal concentrations.
The study met the acceptability criteria and was considered valid.
Under the conditions of the study, the test material did not induce acute immobilisation at a nominal concentration of 4.6 mg/L (NOEC) after 48 h. The 48 h EC50 was 7.9 mg/L based on nominal concentrations (95% confidence limits of 7.2 - 9.3 mg/L).

Additional information
One reliable study is available. In this study performed under GLP according to OECD TG 202 Daphnia magna (5/replicate, 4 replicates/concentration) were exposed to the substance under semi-static conditions for 48 hours at nominal concentrations of 0, 1.0, 2.2, 4.6, 10, 22 or 46 mg/L [Bouwman LM (2003a)]. The 48-h EC50 was 7.9 mg/L based on nominal test concentrations.
