- Specific details on test material used for the study:
- Name: A017, 1-Naphthol
Batch Number: ADT1214003
CAS Number: 90-15-3
Storage Conditions: Ambient
Initial analysis : 27 May 2016 and purity : 98.9%
Re-analysis Date: 23 September 2016 and purity 99.2%
The purity is unchanged and remain 98.9% - Analytical monitoring:
- yes
- Details on sampling:
- - Concentrations: 5 concentrations were tested and analysed.
- Sampling method: The concentrations of A017 were measured in samples collected from the control and each test substance treatment. Samples from freshly-prepared parent solutions were collected at initiation (0 hour) and composite samples from replicates A through D from the control and each test substance treatment were collected at 48-hours (termination). A017-fortified samples were also prepared for analysis at each sample period.
- Sample storage conditions before analysis: At each sampling time point, a 5 mL sample was collected from the control and each test substance treatment and placed into separate 10-mL culture tubes. The samples were diluted with 5 mL of ACN and further diluted, if necessary, with 50:50 ACN:HPLC water to provide final concentrations within the analytical standard concentration range (0.0500 to 2.00 ng A017/L). Six samples (three low spike and three high spike) were prepared at each of two quality control (QC) fortification concentrations that bracket the expected high and low test substance treatment concentrations and analyzed in a similar manner. The samples were vialed and analyzed by HPLC-UV. - Vehicle:
- no
- Details on test solutions:
- The following nominal concentrations of 0 (control), 0.40, 0.80, 1.6, 3.2, and 6.4 mg A017/L were tested. A 0.0128 mg A017/mL primary standard was prepared at test initiation by diluting 0.0129 g A017 (0.0128 g adjusted for 98.9% purity) with dilution water to a volume of 1000 mL. Test solutions were prepared by diluting appropriate aliquots of the primary standard to a volume of 1.0 L with dilution water. The control consisted of dilution water only.
In the range finding study (from 0 to 100 mg/l ) the 0 (control) and all test substance treatments were clear and colorless with no visible particulates, surface film, undissolved test substance, or precipitate throughout the test.
Preparation of analytical standards and Matrix Spiking Solutions :
A primary stock solution of A017 was prepared on 27 June 2016 at a concentration of 0.665 mg A017/mL by weighing 16.8 mg of A017 into a 25-mL volumetric flask, correcting for 98.9% purity, and bringing the flask to volume with acetonitrile (ACN). Subsequent dilutions of this solution in 50:50 HPLC water:ACN were used as analytical standards during the definitive test.
A second primary stock solution of A017 was prepared on 27 June 2016 at a concentration of 3.91 mg A017/mL by weighing 98.9 mg of A017 into a 25-mL volumetric flask, correcting for 98.9% purity, and bringing the flask to volume with ACN. Subsequent dilutions of this solution in ACN were used to prepare QC fortifications during the definitive test.
All solutions were stored refrigerated when not in use. - Test organisms (species):

METHOD FOR PREPARATION AND COLLECTION OF EARLY INSTARS OR OTHER LIFE STAGES:
Five neonates (<24-hours old) were added to each of four test chambers per treatment at the start of the test. Daphnids were impartially added to a set of labeled containers with each container representing one treatment replicate. Each container was then randomly assigned to a treatment replicate by random number generator. The individuals within each container were then transferred into the corresponding test chamber below the surface of the solution using a wide bore pipet. - Test type:
