- Executive summary:
The aquatic toxicity of the test item was assessed using Daphnia magna in a 48 h Acute Immobilisation Test according to OECD TG 202 and under GLP conditions. For this purpose, young Daphnia were exposed to aqueous test media containing the test item for 48 hours. Based on results obtained in a non-GLP preliminary experiment Daphnia were exposed to a single concentration of 1000 mg/L (limit concentration). Potassium dichromate served as the reference control. A static test was performed as the test item was previously shown to be stable in the test medium. The purpose of the analytical part of this study was to verify the concentration of the test item in the test medium. The actual concentration of the test item in the treatment was determined before and after the test. The test item was determined to be stable under the test conditions. Therefore the nominal concentration was used to estimate the results. Healthy, young daphnids with known origin, history and acclimatization conditions were used. The test item and the control were tested using 20 daphnids (divided into 4 concurrent subgroups) each. Each test vessel contained approximately 40 mL test medium. The immobilisation of the test animals was recorded 24 and 48 h after treatment. Environmental conditions were recorded. All measured values remained within acceptable ranges. All validity criteria were met and therefore the study was considered as valid. The 48 h NOEC was determined to be 1000 mg/L and the EC50 value were determined to be > 1000 mg/L.
Reference
VALIDITY
- The 24 h EC50 EC of K2Cr2O7 should lie between 0.6 and 2.4 mg/L. The 24 h EC50i of K2Cr2O7 was determined as 1.5 mg/L.
- Immobilization in the blanks may not exceed 10 %. Immobilization in the blanks was 0 %.
- The concentration of dissolved oxygen at the end of the test must be at least 60 % of the saturation value. The lowest concentration of dissolved oxygen at the end of the test was 7.5 mg/L. 100 % saturation equals 9.05 mg/L at 20 °C, giving 83 % oxygen saturation for the value measured.
ANALYTICAL DETERMINATIONS
The analytical determination of the test item in the test solution showed a very good recovery after 48 hours. The recovery of more than 100 % was probably caused by evaporation effects. The test item can be considered as stable under the test conditions.
