- Dunnett's Test used - for measured concentration of 12.10 mg/L, Dunnett's test showed that there was no statistical difference between that concentration and the results of the copntrol.
For test concentrations 23.83, 47.04 and 90.00 mg/L, Dunnett's test showed that there was a statistically significant difference in the results compared to the control. - Validity criteria fulfilled:
- yes
- Conclusions:
- Acute toxicity of MDAC on Daphnia magna was assessed in an acute immobilisation test, over an exposure period of 48 hours in a semi-static test system. The percentage of Daphnia being no longer capable of swimming at the end of the test or being dead was recorded for each test concentration. The nominal concentrations of test item used in the main experiment were: 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 % saturated solution. The test concentrations were analytically determined at the start and at the end of the renewal periods. The corresponding measured geometric mean test item concentrations were: 6.21; 12.10; 23.83; 47.04 and 90.00 mg/L.
The immobility or mortality of the Daphnia was determined by visual observation 24 and 48 hours after the start of the test. Those animals not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test beaker are considered to be immobile. The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility were determined at 24 and 48 hours. All validity criteria were within acceptable limits and therefore the study can be considered as valid.
Under the conditions of this Daphnia magna acute immobilisation study the observed endpoints for the effect of MDAC were the followings:
- The 24h EC50 value: 38.19 mg/L (measured) (95 % conf. limits: 35.60 – 40.98 mg/L)
- The 48h EC50 value: 24.03 mg/L (measured) (95 % conf. limits: 22.25 – 25.96 mg/L)
- The 48h EC100 value: 47.04 mg/L (measured)
- The 48h No-Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC): 12.10 mg/L (measured)
- The 48h Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC): 23.83 mg/L (measured)

Description of key information
Acute toxicity of MDAC on Daphnia magna was assessed in an acute immobilisation test, over an exposure period of 48 hours in a semi-static test system. The percentage of Daphnia being no longer capable of swimming at the end of the test or being dead was recorded for each test concentration. Because significant immobility was observed at the highest examined concentration level during the preliminary range-finding test, five test concentrations in a geometric series (factor 2.0) and one control group were tested in the definitive test under semi-static conditions.
The nominal concentrations of test item used in the main experiment were: 6.25, 12.5, 25, 50 and 100 % saturated solution. The test concentrations were analytically determined at the start and at the end of the renewal periods. The corresponding measured geometric mean test item concentrations were: 6.21; 12.10; 23.83; 47.04 and 90.00 mg/L. Twenty animals (young Daphnia magna, less than 24hr old) were divided into four groups (replicates) within glass beakers of five animals each at the test concentrations and for the control as well. The animals were not fed during the test.
The choice of the test concentration was made on the basis of the results of a preliminary range-finding test, which consisted of ten daphnids (divided into two replicates) in each test concentration and control being exposed for 48 hours under semi-static conditions. At concentrations of 10% sat.solution, 1 daphnia was immobile. At 100% sat.solution, 100% of all daphnia were immobile.
The immobility or mortality of the Daphnia was determined by visual observation 24 and 48 hours after the start of the test. Those animals not able to swim within 15 seconds after gentle agitation of the test beaker are considered to be immobile. The number of immobilised animals and the percentage of immobility were determined at 24 and 48 hours.
All validity criteria were within acceptable limits and therefore the study can be considered as valid.
Under the conditions of this Daphnia magna acute immobilisation study the observed endpoints for the effect of MDAC were the followings:
- The 24h EC50 value: 38.19 mg/L (measured) (95 % conf. limits: 35.60 – 40.98 mg/L)
- The 48h EC50 value: 24.03 mg/L (measured) (95 % conf. limits: 22.25 – 25.96 mg/L)
- The 48h EC100 value: 47.04 mg/L (measured)
- The 48h No-Observed Effect Concentration (NOEC): 12.10 mg/L (measured)
- The 48h Lowest Observed Effect Concentration (LOEC): 23.83 mg/L (measured)
